A week of sickness


This week was dominated by Henry being ill. He had a temperature between 103-106 between Saturday afternoon and Wednesday of this week. We treated him with various over the counter medications to control his temperature. Eventually, the Doctor, who thought he had mono initially told us they now thought it was just a bad virus. He is on antibiotics and is now back to normal.


This obviously changed all of our plans for the week. Marisa got to stay home for most of this week, Henry did not have any swimming, Marisa was supposed to take a 3 day trip to Minneapolis for work, but that was also cancelled because of Henry being ill.

In short, we spent a lot of time at home. Gemma is still getting better at talking day by day, coming up with all kinds of new things to say. Her vocabulary includes, "thank you," "Henry" , "yes" and "no"

On a personal note, I score 3 goals in the 1st 5 minutes of my football team's 4-1 win last night. That was a first for me, and something I am sure I will never repeat. I also found out that I came 20th out of 218 people in the 5k last week, and have immediately signed myself up for another one at the end of April.

My Under 12 girls team looks good, and is going to play their 1st 2 games this week in my absence. I will be in Florida enjoying our much anticipated vacation.

The weather is finally good enough to play outside here, so the kids are loving being outdoors. We have 1 open side to our back yard. We are getting that finished so we will have a totally private back yard, which will be nice.



Probably wont blog next week since we will be in Florida. Sorry it's not very exciting this week.
