I’m Sick, Your Sick, Everybody is Sick

That’s my life in a nutshell.  It started Friday night when Madison left Daddy/Daughter date night after an hour, because she didn’t feel good.  (Now, Will had the flu when everybody had snow days).  I was at a 31 show (kinda like a purse party), and by the time I got home, she had thrown up.  No sleep Friday night because well, she threw up all Friday night.  Trust me, after not sleeping all night, I was probably babbling on about horse insurance services.  Bill was suppose to relieve me and didn’t.  Her last throwing up was at midnight Saturday night (or would that be Sunday morning).  However, she is showing keytones in her urine.  Now, if you read me regularly, you’ll know that this is what gets her trouble.  We need to get those to 0.  If we don’t keep an eye on them and they spike, we are in the hospital with her.  Good times, let me tell you.  I’ve tested more pee in the  last  couple of days . . .Right now, we can’t seem to get her out of the Small range.  We sometimes end up with trace.  However, she ate an entire can of soup herself for dinner and she had a sandwich for lunch, so I;m hoping that helps.  If not, I think I may have to call the pediatrician, and see what to do next.  She’s not spiking, but she isn’t going down either.  However, today was her first day of eating real food, so that has got to make a difference.  Well, Sunday morning rolled around and Bill started throwing up.  I held off till Sunday afternoon.  It was so bad that we sent Will to grandma’s house.  There was no way we were going to be able to get him to school when I couldn’t even sit up without getting sick.  I spent most of today in bed with the most horrible headache known to man.  You could have sold me anything from cheap horse insurance to a brand new car if it would have gotten rid of my migraine.  It was horrible.  Napping actually made it worse (I didn’t think that was possible).

However, I think we are all on the mend now (I hope!).  I’ve still got a headache though manageable.  Madison is eating, so we are hoping for 0 keytones in the morning so I can send her to school!  Will’s still at grandma’s so hopefully we can get him back home tomorrow too.

Dinosaur Train Play Event @ The Field Museum

My kids and I were invited to an awesome program at the The Field Museum.  My kids are huge fans of Dinosaur Train.  Heck, I am a huge fan.  The music is awesome, and your kids are learning without even realizing it.  Will even tries to sing along with the theme song!

Now, we were able to see some of the Dinosaur Train toys that will be coming out this fall for the Christmas season.  Let me tell you, you are going to want these:

As you can see, they’ve made toys of all the characters!  Want to know the coolest part?  They all talk and sing to each other.  If I could have snuck one out in my purse, I would have!  They were absolutely adorable and cute.  My kids loved them!  I know I’ll be buying a few of these for Christmas this year!  (Now, I’ve seen toys that can sense others and react and they were in the $300 price range.  These toys will be affordable.  I asked.)

Not only did we get to play with awesome toys, but we got to meet Dr. Scott.  He’s the brains behind the show, and if you are avid followers of the show, you’ll know that he’s in every episode:

We even got to meet Craig Bartlett — that’s the guy who sings the Dinosaur Train Song!

I have to admit — this was one of the coolest events we’ve been too!  I hope that Dinosaur Train decides to come to the Field Museum again!
