Oh what a long week it's been so far. Reese came down with the stomach flu Sunday morning. We thought it'd be a 24 hour deal... Not the case. As it turns out, it's still going on today, Tuesday, with yet another "emesis" (trying not to gross you out, so I'll use the medical term) this morning. Selfishly, I was happy to hear from Gabe this morning announcing that his flight to Rapid City had been delayed and it would be a waste of time to go on the trip, so he canceled it all together. I did feel bad for Gabe though, because he was up at 4:30 am to make his flight. He ignored my advice of checking the status of his flight before leaving - with word of the "big storm" coming and all I thought it might be a good idea. Good thing the airport is only a 10 -15 minute drive from our house. Gabe worked around Lincoln today, but at least he's around tonight for a little moral support. I think Reese is on the mend, we just feel so bad for him. Poor little guy just wants to be held and lay on the couch. Even just bringing the little yellow bucket around makes him cry. He'll push it away and shake his head "no, no". As many of you know, little kids can't exactly tell you when it's coming, so the little bucket hasn't always helped anyway... Hopefully today is our last day and Gabe and I can somehow dodge this nasty little virus.

Poor little babe...my heart just goes out to him. I certainly hope you and Gabe don't get it...ESPECIALLY you! I got sick when I was prego with Sophie at about 7 months, and I just wouldn't wish that on another. I'll keep you all in my prayers. We're heading for our holiday trek next Thursday already! Can you believe it?!? Maybe see you in Kearney for the holidays? Merry Christmas!
