Today was the worst beach day EVER! Yesterday I blogged about being bitten by the beach bug...in reference to our lack of keeping any schedule or being aware of a clock of any kind. Right before dinner however, sweet Kali Rae gotten bitten by a bug of some kind or another...the stomach variety. Once this happened, some condo residents started complaining of stomach cramps. In the middle of the night Cooper ran a fever of 100, low but enough to make him have a rough night's sleep. Kendall woke up before Cooper did around 1AM and didn't settle down until after a dose of Tylenol and about an hour and a half. After waking relatively early, Coop complained of not feeling good and headed straight for the couch...where the bug apparently got him for real. He only "spit up" once, but I was on high alert the rest of the day. He was absolutely miserable and Kendall woke up about an hour later just as pathetic. Kendall never ran a fever and never got sick, but she was lethargic and whiny and ate a handful of cheerios all day. Kara and Emily both started to feel a tiny bit bad and unfortunately The Beach Bug got Mimi really good.
Where were the boys during all of this, you ask? Well, they were golfing! They returned to a dark condo full of Pepto, empty ginger ale and Gatorade cups and saltine crumbs everywhere, blankets and pillows and kids and Mimi's laid all over the couch. It was a sorry sight, to say the least.
The Bug has moved on to another unsuspecting, innocent family in Destin while our kids finally ate something more than cheerios and got some fresh air and sunshine while in the pool this evening. No fun beach pics to post today, so here are some videos from happier days...
