We had a bit of a rough start to the weekend.... I woke up Friday morning with a HORRIBLE stomach bug. I'm still not sure if it was something I ate or what, but I couldn't keep any fluids or food in me all day. Thankfully I had this little sweetie checking up on me with her doctor kit. By mid-afternoon it wasn't getting any better so I called in reinforcements. Uncle Derek came to save the day & take Makenna for a bit while I napped and tried to recouperate.
Unfortunately, by 7pm I still wasn't able to keep any fluids down and those once swollen pregnancy ankles had shrunk back down to normal size. I weighed myself and was down 9 lbs since the previous night and knew it was time to call the doc.
Unfortunately, that meant another Friday night visit to the ER:( Thankful Grandma was able to come over and releive Uncle Derek so Daddy could come with me. Thankfully I was 24 weeks so they let me go up to the labor & delivery floor instead of waiting in the ER which is good because the ER was PACKED! I ended up getting 2 of these IV bags of fluid and they finally let us go at 3am. By then I was feeling much better and apparently really needed the fluid since even after getting all this fluid pumped back into me, I still didn't have to pee!
Other than a lack of sleep, by Saturday morning I was feeling much better. Daddy was plannig on painting the baby's room and our room so Makenna and I headed up to my parents for the weekend.
My little date for the weekend - gosh I love her!
Saturday night we had a cookout with some high school friends and their families. It was SO great to be able to see all these kiddos have a blast playing together and catch up with some good friends! Makenna was LOVING all the girlie toys, too!
Sunday morning we were able to spend with Oma, Papa & Cookie Beek at church & out for breakfast
Love this one!!
I'm not sure Oma can hear after all this screaming!
Makenna loves her some Oma & Papa!
Then it was off for a little girl time with Auntie Amy, Mommy & Cousin Madison.
We had soo much fun just hanging out. Makenna was such a good girl all weekend!
We sure missed Daddy, though & it was nice to head home and see him, too! Here she is playing with her tea set before bed.... who needs clothes to play tea with your puppy right?
Oh no! lost 9 lbs in one day! Good thing you went in... and felt so much better the next day! 24 weeks already, wow!
