Mike's Parents Visit


It was exciting having Mike's parents visit again this year.  Tommy was feeling well enough that he could come too.  They stayed one week with TJ and one with us. 
 Nursing moms...this was us over at TJ's house picking up his parents and hanging out for awhile.
 Morgan and Kaden are total buds...they are sooo cute to watch play together.  And I can't believe what a little man Kaden is....super cute!
 Here is London and Tatum together.  They are two months apart and we are looking forward to watching these guys grow up together.
 Here is the girl version of Harry Potter.
 Now the first part of Elaine and Tommy's stay at our house was great...and then that fateful Thursday hit.  Mike took the boys and Tommy for a drive in the mountains and Elaine and I stayed behind and chatted.  When they got home Tommy was acting really strange so Mike had to call for an ambulance!  On top of it when they got home Mike told me Carson had thrown up in the car.  So I made a sick bed for him  and I'm glad I did because he kept throwing up for the next two days.
 So we find out that Tommy had an pneumonia and had to stay there to get a blood transfusion too!  He was in bad shape.  Back at home that night Cole started throwing up also.  Now my kids usually throw up once and then they are playing again.  This sickness had them throwing up for 3- 4 days and then fevering for two....it was not good. 

 Then Morgan got it.  I really don't want to go through the day by day play but let me just say HORRIBLE.  It took me a few weeks to get over all that we went through.  Once the sickness finally did leave. 

The picture below is of Carson in the emergency room.  That was another "fun" little trip in the middle of the whole ordeal.  Needless to say he was fine..thank heavens...always look for those silver linings in any situation, right?

So Tommy was able to get out of the hospital on Sunday and they flew home the next day.  It was not the best trip for all of us but we are all glad we were able to see each other and have a good time when we were all feeling well.
