No Word

Yesterday was a crazy day, again. Ayden started throwing up and having the runs first thing in the morning. He asked for some water and threw up after each of the three times he drank. After about two hours he was clearly feeling better and didn't throw up again. He did manage to go through four pairs of underwear yesterday :(  Poor little guy!

Dominic was supposed to call at 7:30 am so that he could talk to the boys before we took Christian to school. He never called. When we got home there was a message. We missed him.

Mason decided not to take any naps yesterday. So it got to the point where I knew if we got out of the house (in the car) that he would fall asleep and not be so fussy. Christian had tutoring after school with his math teacher so I knew we had about an hour before we had to go get him. I loaded up the boys and drove to Target. I didn't really NEED anything besides to get out of the house. So we get there, park and I open Ayden's door and he's out! Sleeping! Well, there is no way I am going to wake him up. He's sick and he needs some extra sleep. So I decide to go to the bank and just drive around for an hour until its time to go get Christian. Ayden and Mason both slept in the car.

We picked up Christian, came home for about 40 minutes then we were off to the Hearts Apart Christmas Party. It was at the Family Readiness Center. There wasn't as many people as I expected. Santa was there for pictures. It took a long time and patients to get Ayden to sit with Santa and the only way he would was if I sat on Santa's lap and Ayden sat on my lap. Yeah, I know! A mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do. Santa was so very generous and such a sweet guy. He had a beautiful Santa suit on and his beard and mustache were real. He asked us our plans for the holidays and I told him. He said that he always has an open door policy at his home and invited us to come for Christmas dinner if we didn't have anything to do. What a sweet guy! Christian loved him! Each of the boys came home with a bag full of stuffed animals and toys. They also served pizza.

We haven't heard from Dominic yet. I am anxious for the phone to ring, but I just don't know when that will happen. I am patiently waiting.
