Sick Day

Well, this ain't your typical Thursday. Scottie woke up about 2:45 last night with a case of the barfs, I'm at home studying about Hepatitis for my new job, and Ann's day of errands was completely shot. We are hoping the spewing is over, but he has a little fever now. Ann has been ubersympathetic with Scottie, and this is something I don't get to see during my sicknesses. So it is nice to know that my kids don't get the gasps and rolling eyes that I see when I am a little under the weather. It is pretty sad and pathetic to see the little fella so down and out though. Here's to hoping he gets to feeling better soon.

*Notice the name on the bowl. This was an old practice passed down from my mom. I don't know if it is to keep from getting lost or if she is afraid it will get stolen, but growing up 'McNellis' was written in every piece of athletic gear, clothing (especially underwear, what??), book, toy, hat, kitchen utensil, etc. we ever owned. After garage sales and donations, who knows how many people in this world have something that says 'McNellis' in permanent marker.

No, Maggie is not happy Scottie is sick. Just glad to be able to crawl around without being tackled.

Last weekend, we went to Kansas City to see the fam. We went and saw Grandma McNellis and spent a lot of time with Ava and Quin at my brother's new house. Then on Saturday, the entire Hendricks (Mom's side) family came over to Ryan's for a Holiday get together. It was great to see everyone.
