This past weekend we took a trip out to Missouri to visit Mema for her birthday. It was a pretty special birthday for her and she wanted all of the family together. The trip ended up being pretty short. We left on Friday after picking Andrew up from school. The Dr told me that we have to stop every hour so I could get out and walk for ten minutes to prevent any blood clots from forming. Let me just tell you, that was so much fun :( I was actually surprised because I had to go to the bathroom every time we stopped anyway. Traveling with a pregnant girl isn't tons of fun. Before making it there Andrew started with a fever in the car. He also had a cough. We made it there either way after about nine hours in the car. The trip is usually seven. The next day we were able to celebrate Mema's birthday with the family. It was so good getting to see everyone!!! Andrew had a blast seeing Mema and Papa and the rest of the family. He was such a trooper with his cold.
We planned on leaving on Sunday but we ended up leaving Saturday night because a snow storm was coming. Back in the car we went. I was not looking forward to being the car so soon. About half way through the trip Mark started with a fever. He ended up getting the same cold that Andrew had. We made it home that night around 3 am. Of course, I ended up getting the same cold on Monday. It was a crazy trip, but it was worth it to see everyone and help Mema celebrate her 60th birthday!! Happy Birthday Mema, we love you!!
