Jacob's sick. :( He started throwing up about 5 hours ago. Actually he seems to be fine now. He's back to his sassy little self. He threw up about 6 times in 2 hours. The poor thing couldnt keep anything down, not water or breastmilk. He'd nurse for a bit then 5 minutes later it'd all come back up again. I'm glad he's better. I wasnt looking

Hope Jacob gets better fast, poor guy. Sounds so cute eating soup in his suit :)

Thanks, he's still not feeling well. It's been about 2 hours since he's eaten some chicken soup and so far it's stayed down. He's nursing a lot and still has soaking wet diapers so thats good. He threw up on the way to the doctors office. I ended up changing his pants in the car and was able to wipe down his coat so it wasnt slimey. I do need to tear apart the carseat and wash it out though.

How is the party planning going?

Oh, so unfortunate. Wish I had some great advice to pass on to you, but with two older sons you know way more than me when it comes to illness. I guess all I can do is send my best wishes.

Party planning consists purely of me trying to clean this place up as much as possible. I clean everyday but you know, all the deep cleaning I normally spread out over time I'm trying to do all at once, and also trying to make sure everything stays perfect all the time. It's pretty much impossible. I washed the floors yesterday and today it looks like they haven't been washed in weeks :/ I just used a small brush to clean out all the crevices of our dining chairs, that'll last a few days I'm sure. So in short, I'm not really doing anything! lol I'm going to buy all the food on Saturday and start prep then, and maybe tomorrow get V a party dress. Or maybe I'll just cobble something together from her existing wardrobe.

Thank you. He's better today. :) There's not much to do other than watch and wait. It just needs to run it's course. The doctor offered me some anti-nausea medication that's typically prescribed for pregnant women in case it continued to the point of dehydration but I declined and thankfully it never became that bad. He's back to his talkative, sassy little self again.

Tell me about it! We just cleaned the living room Monday, by last night you couldnt tell. So frustrating! What are you making? I think you may have said already. . . I just dont remember at the moment. lol

Oh, the salad is shredded boston lettuce, raddicio (sp?), a granny smith apple, and endive tossed with olive oil and lemon. I got the recipe from Good Housekeeping magazine this month.

The drumsticks are from this: http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=1860273 but I think I'm just going to use regular bbq sauce. Can't be bothered to make that white one.

The pizzas are Dr. Oetker's frozen :) I like them a lot! I'm going to cut them up in triangular sort of strips, not like regular slices. Just pile them up on a plate.

Everything sounds great. I really like that site as well. I bookmarked it so I can check it out when I have more time.
