What a twist to Vanessa's b-day. She's been planning her party all year. In fact, she has the next four or five b-days planned. Unfortunately plans only take you so far. With great resistance, Vanessa surrendered to the stomach flu today, along with her daddy. B-day plans were postponed but there's a lot of comfort knowing she will have another chance. She's tickled with Aunt G and Uncle T's gift of a nightgown -- perfect for a day when one deserves to open a present and stay in her PJs all day!
Nourishing a particular eater is hard anyway -- this just made it more difficult. She's hanging in there well, though. And she's been extra appreciative for everything. Per Grandpa's suggestion and Grandma's help, she's getting plenty of liquids. :) And she's now had toast, graham crackers and scrambled eggs with b-day sprinkles. Well on her way to recovery . . .
And don't fret. After a little yuckiness for Zane on Thursday, he's now carrying on like normal. :)
