Are We Ready?

Hmmmm.....grandpa and grandma are always ready for the grandkids to come over. Everyone should know that by now LOL!

It's been a while since we had a sleepover with Hailee, Hannah and Cade, so today is the day. Their school break started yesterday, so this will be a nice way for them to start their week off :)

They should be here around noon today, so grandpa and I are thinking of ways to keep them busy...hehehe!  A trip to the Dollar Store will definitely be on the agenda...if they want to go.  Quite often when the kids get here, they don't want to go anywhere. We shall see :)

Be back later!

Well, our day didn't go quite as planned :(  Poor Hailee has a stomach bug. Not a fun way to start a week off school.  She was SO tired from not sleeping much last night, and the bug, that she didn't want to do anything.
 

Ahhhhhhhh.........
  
We all went outside to play and build a fort in the backyard, but Hailee eventually wanted to come inside before Hannah, Cade and Grandpa did.  She immediately laid on the couch and didn't move for the rest of the evening...although she did ask for some chicken noodle soup.  She didn't even want to go out for supper!  We knew she was definitely sick when that happened :(
 
Put it right here please grandpa!
 
  Hey, I need more blocks!!
    
Making a Fort is hard work LOL!
  
Grandpa took Hannah and Cade to McD's...a real treat...and then to DQ for dessert.  They brought Hailee a small plain Sundae back with them, and she had no problem eating it....hehehe! 

Hailee slept on the couch for a few hours, and when she woke up she wanted to cuddle on me. Poor thing had a sore belly so I rubbed it for a bit. Then...it happened....she lifted her head (we were face to face) and she vomited. It went everywhere! All over me, my hair and the recliner we were cuddling in LOL!
 
Grandpa picked her up (of course she never got a drop on her LOL) and brought her to the bathroom to wash her face. I on the other hand stripped my clothes off in the kitchen, then quickly grabbed some cleaning supplies, a big plastic bag and lots and lots of paper towels. I scrubbed, squeezed, sprayed every inch on the recliner that got "hit"....finishing off with half a bottle of Febreze.
   
Grandpa took her on our bed and she fell asleep within minutes.  Grandma on the other hand had to have another shower and wash my hair. When I say it was everywhere, it was everywhere LOL!
 
So Hannah and Cade are sleeping in the cabin they wanted me to make for them, grandpa will sleep on the bottom bunk beside them, and Hailee will sleep with me.  Sure hope her tummy doesn't act up any more tonight.  Poor little thing is so tired.
  
What can be more fun than building a cabin??

 
Let's hope tomorrow will be a better day!

Grandma loves you
xoxoxoxo
P.S.  By the way, none of them wanted to go to the Dollar Store.  Hailee said "but grandma, you know if I was feeling good that I'd go." LOL!  All they wanted to do was play in the cabin and outside in the snow!  What more can we ask for? :))
