The Shrimp Festival at Red Lobster

All You Can Eat Shrimp at Red Lobster! Oli doesn't like meat. I'm not quite sure if it's the fact that he was hungry or not, but he saw the breaded shrimp on my plate and just couldn't help but grab it! He ate quite a few and even had some shrimp scampi! His first shrimp experience! Oh I hope he loves seafood as much as I do! Mmmmm.... Oh yes!!! Yummy Mummy! Mmmm!!!!! ...

Why I Will Never Choose to Fly on American Airlines

When my husband told me we were going to be flying to Ohio, I remember the excitement. When he said we were going to fly with American Airlines, I knew there would be trouble. Owen booked our flight about 2 months prior. He knew he was going to have to go to Dallas for a business trip and scheduled our flight so that we could all fly together (at least up to Dallas). There are no direct flights from Orange County to Dayton, Ohio. So the best choice was American Airlines at 7:30 in the morning. A week before our flight, American Airlines changed...

Mommy's Got the Bug

Oh my goodness! I could only imagine how my little baby felt. How Owen felt. This is the most horrible flu I think I've had. I can't even begin to explain it at all. The discomfort, the achy feeling, the uneasy stomach, augh! It's horrible! Sorry, can't write much except that this is absolutely terrible. I had thought that maybe it was Weetabix or even the biscuits that Owen's mom sent us from England as they were the only 2 that Owen and Oli had eaten that I didn't really eat. Then now I've got them! Today was absolute misery. Right now, I...

Daddy's Got the Bug

I think I just saw my life in forward mode. Owen came home early as he said he was feeling a bit ill. As soon as he came into the house, he said "hello," took off his clothes, and jumped straight into bed. "Are you ok?" I asked. "Yeah, my stomach is not feeling too good right now. I think I'm really sick." He went right to sleep and after about an hour, I heard some horrible noise coming from our bathroom. I thought he had been exaggerating his vomit noise a bit or even trying to be funny, but I thought I'd just check anyway. I held Oli in...

Toddler Has the Stomach Flu

Oli's stomach flu seems to have gotten a lot better. Well, he's got some runny diarrhea, but I think it's part of the process. At least that's what nurse Lydia said yesterday. He seems to be much better as he had been playing, running around, and eating a bit. Yes, he seemed so hungry. He ate a small bowl of rice and an egg. Owen insists that I shouldn't really feed him anything but I just feel like he's starving. He keeps pointing to the cabinet where his snacks are and I just can't be giving him junk. So egg and rice I think are quite good. It's...

A Vomiting Toddler

It's really sad when your baby is sick. I feel like my mind runs a thousand miles an hour. How did he get sick? I just replay the events of the day over and over and can't understand. Oli woke up from his nap, crying. I usually just let him cry for a while after his nap to let him wind down. After about 5 minutes, I went into the room to peek inside. His crib was filled with vomit! Oh! It was so sad! He had it all over his hands, his arms, his face, and it looked like everything he ate for the last 2 days! It was so awful! My poor baby. I just...

A Funeral, A Reunion, and Time with Mom and Dad

Today felt like it was two days in one. I can't believe the amount of events that took place today. After a long drive, well, actually it was for Owen, because I slept most of the way, we arrived at my parents' house at 2 am from Beverly Hills. I was sooooo drunk that I felt like I was seeing everything crossed eyed. Yes, I'm a bit of a light weight given that rarely ever drink, because I'm so tired most of the time. Alcohol, I know would just really...
