The Lake

So, we rented a cabin with some friends for the weekend at Lake Brownwood. It was a blast. It was the first time for all the kids to go out in the boat. Aubrey loved tubing. She kept telling her daddy to go faster and go outside the wake. The daddies got a little rough with each other, seeing how many flips they could make each other do when they through them off. The mommies aren't near as young as they think they are either. We rode together and Mike got a little rough. We never got thrown off. But, there are plenty of bruises on our hineys!!!! We were both up in the middle of the night searching in the dark for Advil. The kids did a little night fishing in the dark. Of course they didn't leave their poles in the water long enough to catch anything. They had to keep checking to see if the worm was there. We did have a false alarm. Jace's rod kept twitching on the end so Mike was getting ready to set the hook. But, he soon realized it was around Jace's toe!!!! But, everyone had a great time. Now I just have to convince Mike to buy me a cabin!!!!

Sickness in the Stone Hosehold.

This week has not been a fun one at the Stone household. Aubrey woke up Monday night running a fever, which in turn makes her throw up. So, I called the dr.'s office and they asked if I could wait until Wednesday morning. She wasn't too bad at that point so it wasn't a problem. Boy was that a bad idea. She soon went to throwing up every 30 minutes to an hour and I couldn't get her fever to break. So, I called back to get her in that day. I was told that it was just a stomach virus and there was nothing the could do. I knew there was more to it than just a stomach bug and just kept my appointment for the next morning. And guess what I was right, a mother always knows. The doctor looked in her throat and was not happy. Aubrey had herpengina. She showed me her throat which was covered in blisters. But, I had no idea what herpengina was. All I could think of was herpes and then there is that gina on the end?????? I didn't want to look stupid, so we no more get out of the office and I'm searching for herpengina on my Blackberry. I soon found out it is blisters in the throat. She was pretty down for a couple of days. But, let me tell you she has made a full recovery today, and then some!!!!! She is wearing me out.But, I am definitely glad she is feeling better. Got a busy day tomorrow with our last t-ball game!
