What a week

We had a wonderful birthday party for Braden in KC last Saturday. It was a great time for us to catch up with family and friends we hadn't seen in a while and our first opportunity to see Jon & Steph in almost 4 yrs. We went to KC for Joe to go to a Chiefs game with his football buddies but I also saw a chance to celebrate Braden's first birthday away from the hectic Christmas holiday. Braden's actual bday is Dec 22 so he will always be lost in the Christmas rush.
Of course as soon as we get home we get sick. It seems we can hardly go a week without one of us catching something. This flu was very mild for Joe and I and only lasted a day but Zane got the worst of it. He had a high fever, vomit, constant big D, pink eye and a cold. His fever finally broke last night after more than 3 days over 100 but he's still coughing and congested. It has made for a very tiring week for me. At least Braden has stayed completely healthy and I have no idea how. I have caught little B a couple of times trying to drink from Zane's cup and chewing on Zane's toys.

The weekend is looking up for us. We are going out tonight to Port Edward Restaurant for a wonderful birthday celebration (for me) and to the movies to see Chronicles of Narnia.
Jon & Steph will stay with us for a few days as they visit supporters in the Chicago area. I just hope and pray Zane's health will continue to improve.
