December was a roller coaster of sicknesses and celebrations in our home. It all started on December 2nd when I ran my poor Macy to the ER because she was super sick! She ended up being admitted and had to stay over night since the doctors diagnosed her with RSV, Pneumonia, and a double ear infection!!! It broke my heart to see her so sick and in the hospital again. But luckily she recovered quickly.The following week Savana started with the stomach virus and passed it to most of the fam :(. She ended the week with an acute outbreak of hives and I had to take her to the urgent care center for treatment. After some meds and monitoring she was thankfully better. On December 7th Louis turned the BIG 30!!!!! Unfortunately, we all had the stomach bug on his birthday week, including Lou! It was pretty awful, but we still managed to open presents and do some celebrating. I got Lou a trip to Costa Rica which we are going on next month! We are super excited! Lou had his favorite sushi dinner on his birthday. The bug didn't set in until the end of the week for him which was good and bad because at least he wasn't sick on his birthday. But the bad part was that we had to run the Miami Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon over the weekend and he was too sick to finish it. We are planning to do another one to make up for it!
We waited an entire week after Lou's birthday for everyone to feel better to have cake so we could all enjoy it! On December 15th, my Old Karma turned twelve! I can't believe she is that old already. She is hanging in there good though!Baylee had her Hanukkah program celebration at her preschool the last day before the winter break. We all went to watch our Jewish American Princess sing and dance her Hebrew songs away and she did great!Baylee finished her first soccer season undefeated! She started off not wanting to play to being one of the best players on the team and scoring lots of goals by the end! I am so proud of her! Over the Holiday, Baylee had 2 weeks off of school and we had a lot of fun family days.
We had picnics at the park.......took rides in the bike trailer to see the neighborhood Christmas decorations......Macy got to join her sisters in the big bath tub in her new bath chair... ...we explored new local parks with friends......decorated gingerbread houses with more friends (but mostly ate the candy decorations!)And took evening drives to see lots of beautiful Christmas lights!We also had a very nice Ward Christmas Party at Church where the youth put on a beautiful Nativity program that the kids loved! Baylee and Savana talked about it for days! They just love the story about baby Jesus!A Christmas decoration or a hat? A quick pic of the girls in their matching Christmas dresses after Church with Baylee's best friend Nicky.And Savana with her friend Daniel...Good Nursery buds!Thankfully by the end of the month we had all recovered from the bugs in the house and were getting so excited for Christmas morning to come and for our trip to see Family out west!
