- Had to discipline your 6 year old with a pink, frilly shower cap on your head?
- Had to break up a fight (thats occuring in your living room between your kids) while you are in the shower trying to shave your legs?
- Threatened your children with a consequence that is more of a punishment to yourself than to them? (i.e. If you don't start getting along I am not taking you two anywhere today!)
- Had to tell your 6 year old to stop following you around in the house because he thinks you are going to leave him behind?
- Looked in the mirror after you got out of the shower and thought to yourself "I think I have lost a pound ot two." Only to put on your favorite shorts on and say to yourself, "I guess not!" (Maybe it was the weight from all that hair on my legs...)
You can see how my Friday morning is going..... :)
That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....
So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
