Sonny's revenge!

Okay, so the activities haven't been so exciting in our house lately. You are probably wondering why I have the title that I do. I'm calling for a ban on Sonny's BBQ. Let me paint a picture for you: Kayleigh and I had the day off on Tuesday for Veteran's Day. Valerie gave me the bright idea to meet up with Erik for lunch. We decided to go to Sonny's for lunch. Lunch was delicious. I think Erik and I knew there was a problem that night when he had the chills and a fever so high he could have been the heating pad for my sore stomach. I felt terribly sick to my stomach and hung out in the bathroom for awhile, trying to decide what would make me feel better. When the room started fading in and out, I had to go to the floor so I wouldn't fall off of the toilet. Poor Erik was asleep and I knew he didn't feel good, but I had to have someone in the bathroom. He came in and was such a trooper. He gave me a wet rag for my neck and turned a fan on me. I thought I was a little better the next morning and tried to make it to work. Kayleigh had different ideas. She had a major blowout right after Erik left for work. I got her cleaned up and called for a sub. I feel better now, but Erik is still not up to 100%. Kayleigh is mostly okay, but I don't think she is 100%, either.

Onto other family news! Dad's birthday is tomorrow. Happy birthday! Valerie's and my birthday is Saturday, so don't forget to wish us a happy birthday! I am officially training for my first 15K. I'm doing a run/walk program, because actually running those 9 miles just might kill me. I'm running a 10K on Thanksgiving morning. Erik is going to run it with me, pushing Kayleigh in the stroller. I think that is the only way that he could go that slowly! I'm supposed to run 5 miles this weekend, but I think those miles are going to have to wait. I'm sure it would be good for me to run that far before a birthday dinner and dessert, but since I haven't eaten much since Tuesday, I might let my body rest.

I hope you enjoy the following videos. The first one is of Kayleigh dancing to "If you're happy and you know it". She has been able to do the "stomp your feet" part for awhile, but I mostly sing it to her in the car when she gets bored. She is rocking out to the song tonight. Sorry about my poor singing--there's your advanced warning!


You need to know that I was talking to my dad on the phone when I took this second video. Kayleigh likes to pretend to talk on the phone, but she doesn't like to talk on it if someone is on the other end. I think she's been watching me when I talk on the phone. I usually don't like to sit still while I'm on the phone; I usually pace around and check out what's going on in the house.
