We need a vacation!

Since Livi was feeling better and was already on antibiotics, we decided to try to salvage our Florida trip. We left at 7pm and drove through the night. The girls slept all night until about 7am, which made for a nice peaceful ride. We made it to Orlando shortly afternoon. We dropped our stuff off at our resort and headed over to Downtown Disney for some lunch. Juli got a birthday button since we were celebrating her birthday this week. When they gave it to her, they also told her they had a phone call for her. When they handed her the phone, she got to talk to Goofy, who wished her a very happy birthday.

We strolled around Downtown Disney for a while. We had lunch at the Earle of Sandwhich. Juli got to go on a Carousel Ride and get her face painted as Cinderella.

Our Great Adventure

Today was a crazy day. We were all set to go to Great Adventure for my dad's birthday (Happy Birthday Dad!!) with our whole family and my aunt and cousins. The tickets for all three parks were purchased weeks ago. I ran around like a nut last night and this morning packing and getting all of our stuff together. We hop in the car bright and early this morning and we get 3/4 of the way to my mom and dad's house to meet Karen when Olivia throws up ALL over herself, the car, her carseat, just everything. Juli had also been coughing a lot and gagged a few times. We were 2 blocks from my brother and sister's apartment so I gave them our tickets and had to head home. Luckily they found someone to give them to.

Juli was REALLY disappointed that we couldn't go. Livi fell asleep on the way home and I guess it made her feel better. She was fine the rest of the day.

When we got home I pulled the carseat out of the car and hosed everything down. I had a scrub brush and a toothbrush for scrubbing the crevices. Once I was finished I put them down to rinse the carseat. When I turned around Juli had pulled her scooter out of the garage and was cleaning it "just like Daddy does to his bike".

Since Livi seemed to be feeling better we decided to go out in the little pool for a while.

Juli found this flower and put it in her bucket and told me she had a beautiful present to make me smile. It certainly did and I needed that today.

Time To Go Home - November 10th and 11th

Goodbye Florida Toes and Warm Sunny Days

On Saturday morning we packed everything up and got settled in the car to come home. Livi kept her "Florida Toes" for a while into the drive. Juli settled in with some toys and we were on our way.

We stopped for the night in North Carolina. Juli and I did not have a good night. She woke up shivering and feverish and we were up most of the night. Her fever broke by the morning, but she stayed in her PJs all day on Sunday to stay as comfy as she could.

We drove through DC on our way home. Here's a few pictures of that:
