Abby took her first trip at 9 months old to Allen, Texas. Allen is where Aunt Rikki, Uncle Adriel, and Cousin Preston live. We traveled the four hours to visit and celebrate Preston's third birthday party. Abby did wonderful on the ride up to Allen. We played, she slept, we played, she slept, she ate, she listened to music, etc. She really didn't complain very much at all. When we got there on Saturday we went to Aunt Rikki's for Preston's birthday (see prior entry). Then we went to the hotel and checked in. We stayed at the Courtyard Marriott and had a great time! We went swimming at the indoor pool, shopped at the outlets, shopped at the strip mall by the hotel, and visited with family. Mawmaw and Pawpaw were in Allen too so Abby really enjoyed seeing them. She won't see them again for three months since they are taking a trip to Kansas and Colorado. Good for them but boo for us! We were so lucky to have Granny come with us and enjoyed all of her help and enjoyed the visit. Abbygale sure loves to play with her Granny! It was a great two night/three day vacation and we all had lots of fun!
However....
Monday morning Abby woke up throwing up and got sick every couple of hours on our way home. She woke up and got sick and then slept. This cycle continued for a good 24 hours. We took her to the doctor on Tuesday and they said it was a stomach bug and just give her pedialite/water. Then Abby gave the bug to Mommy and Granny and Daddy (a smaller dose). Abby got sick early Monday morning and we have all been sick sense (Monday-Thursday). We are all done throwing up but still very unstable. We are hoping to go back to our non-sick routine starting Friday, June 1st.
We ended the trip on a sour note but overall had a very good, memorable, and fun 1st vacation! We will definitely be back to Allen before long!
Abbygale sick sleeping when we got home :(
