Murphy's Law reads:
1. If the cousins that your 2 year old has been begging to see decide to stop by for a visit the 2 year old will be attacked by a nasty stomach virus and proceed to vomit all over her mom. Thus cutting the visit very short. She will then continue to vomit, or "spit up" as she calls it, at least more times.
2. If the 5 month old finally decides to start sleeping through the night, Mommy will get hit with the previous mentioned stomach virus and be up ALL night "spitting up." No sleep for Mommy. Ever.
3. If your car is in the shop, and has been for 2 weeks, the technician who is assigned to work on it will have a loss in his family and delay your repairs even further. I know it's minor compared to a loss in the family, but we just want our car back and have been going around circles about it for too long.
4. If Daddy is excited to do a little cooking (which he hasn't had time to do lately) and finds a special recipe to use, you will not have the ingredients. Despite 3 trips to the grocery store in 3 days.
This was the basic trend of the weekend, although I have to admit that we also had some fun too. Saturday we played at the park (before the virus hit Marlo). Sunday we met the Galindo family at Cherrywood coffee house for a Groundworks Music Orchestra show that was great. It's the last one of the season. In the afternoon we met up with the Tierney family and Marlo got to run around with Knox. Knox has moved up to the next classroom at school and both Marlo and Knox are taking it pretty hard. They miss each other so much. They ran around, rode in the wagon, played in the splash pad, blew bubbles, ate Popsicles, played soccer and had a blast. I've never seen Marlo play so well with another little kid. Knox's parents said the same thing. We'll be seeing them more!
