Weekend in Hattiesburg

Well I think we are FINALLY all well in our house! Thursday we thought we were well and Colby went back to school and Lindsay and I went to the park. It was a good day and I was sure we were all back to normal! That afternoon Austin's parents came in town and came over that night to eat dinner with us. The kids had a blast and acted like they were back to normal! Colby was having grandparents day Friday so they were in town for that! We were all so excited about going!
Well Friday was not at all what we had planned! First Lindsay was up at 5:30 b/c she had pooped ALL over herself and the bed. Well my alarm was set for 6 so there was no way I was getting back to sleep! We weren't too worried though b/c she poops at the drop of a hat! Colby came out at 6:45 he immediately went to the couch and said he was going to throw up! And he did all over the blanket! Well at that point we knew our plans were cancelled! I hated it especially for him! We were sick last year at his Thanksgiving program also! He took it wayy better then I expected though! So basically we spent the day around the house. Lindsay and I did bring her snacks to the school that we had promised. It was nice just getting out the house. Even though we were home bound it was still a good day. Both kids even took long naps that day! That night we were all sick of being home so we did go out to eat at McAlister's that night. Colby still wasn't feeling great but he tried to eat and have a good time! I was just thankful for no more puke!
Saturday everyone woke up feeling much better so we decided to go on with our plans to Hattiesburg. The kids were REALLY excited especially after spending most of the week at home. They woke up in great moods and ready to hit the road. Both of them traveled great! They watched Charlotte's Web on the ride up. When we got into Hattiesburg we stopped at the apartment to get unloaded and settled in. After letting the kids play and stretch their legs we loaded up and went to Zaxby's for a quick lunch. We then went to Austin's parents house. I think the kids really enjoyed playing there. Lindsay really seemed to remember this time! Colby chose to stay with them during the game rather then go with us. After visiting for about an hour we took Lindsay back to the apartment for her nap and Austin, my dad, and I went to the game. It was fun just going with them and not having to keep up with Colby. I did miss him but he gets antsy. We did only stay until halftime though b/c it was starting to rain, it was really cold and USM was losing anyway. We picked up Colby and headed back to the apartment. My parents left to drive home so we had the apartment to ourselves that night which was kind of nice. We picked up O'Charley's and just had a low key night. We tried to put the kids to bed early but they kept each other awake for awhile. We relaxed and watched tv for awhile though.
Sunday we were up bright and early. The kids were awake before 7. We decided to go on and get ready and head to Cracker Barrel for our breakfast! We had really been looking forward to a good country breakfast there! Poor Colby still didn't have his appetite back though but Lindsay sure did! She ate 2 bowls of grits and an entire huge pancake! It was fun just visiting and hanging out! Although eating out with 2 kiddos is always hectic and I rarely remember even tasting my food.  The rest of the day we mostly spent around the house once we got in. Again both kids traveled well. Colby watched Polar Express and Lindsay slept mostly. When we got in we were busy unpacking and cleaning house. Neither took a nap so they played outside for awhile then we ran a couple of errands. That evening we had a nice homemade dinner of spaghetti. Seems like we have eaten out so much lately it was nice to have a family meal at home! We had a great weekend even though it didn't start out as we had planned! Just thankful that we are all feeling better and we can enjoy our Thanksgiving week!
