Memorial Weekend

Memorial weekend...I love you. A great reason to have an extra day off work and school. Can it be Memorial Day EVERY Monday?!
We laid low this weekend and enjoyed being home. It didn't help that I am potty training a certain little "princess mermaid." So, we stuck close to a toilet! Fun, fun, fun.
Saturday we decided to head a few miles from the house and shoot the targets the boys got for Christmas from Grandpa Baer. The boys were pretty motivated and the cool weather made it an enjoyable afternoon.


On Monday we laid around the house some more and the big event of the day was washing Luke's Jeep. What a treat! Of course Wiggy loved being hosed down in the driveway and modeling her swimsuit from LAST summer. It's a good thing she is almost potty trained because she couldn't fit any padding in those bottoms.

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.
