We had a great 5th Anniversary yesterday. Jeremiah planned out a night starting with our couples massage at a Day Spa. Then we went out to eat at a really nice Italian restaurant. Then I thought we were going home and after talking about Davin and Brendin during dinner I was ready to see them. Jeremiah had made reservations at the Anniversary Inn. There rooms are very, very themed rooms. We stayed in the tropical room and the hot tub/shower was black rock going up to the ceiling to look like a volcano and the shower was actually a waterfall coming down the volcano. It was really neat. I’m really glad he picked that over the covered wagon room that we toured when my mom was here!! There were rose petals, cheesecake, sparkling cider, anniversary champagne flutes and a candle for us in the room. They also delivered a snack but after that full course meal and drinking so much water at the day spa we couldn’t even look at it!

Therapy is going well. I just had to switch therapists and trying to get the schedule at the right time is a bit of a pain. For the first time after about 45 days of straight migraine headaches I’ve had some relief. There have been entire days where I’ve been able to say I haven’t noticed a headache. The vertebra hasn’t moved but the muscles are loosening up.

Ed and Sarah watched the boys last night and Davin was asking where we were and said “I just don’t like it when they leave.” But that’s about all he said about it. This morning when he woke up he said “Guys, is that you out there?” And his face lit up when he saw me at the door to get him out of bed. He asked where we were and I told him we went out to dinner. He said “I wanted to go to dinner too but you just didn’t want me to. I don’t like it when you’re gone. I was looking all over for you guys and I missed you so much”. It was too cute. Then he said he had a tummy ache and then he said his throat was sore and he started coughing and throwing up a little bit. He’s got a low fever and is resting on the couch today. Jeremiah was sick yesterday so maybe it’s that. I thought I had a sinus infection for about a week after I got over my cold and am just starting to feel better so I better not get sick again!

Brendin started waving bye-bye and says “buh buh” while he’s doing it. He is saying Momma really clear now. The other day he held his arms up to me and said Momma! Davin did great again in his soccer game on Saturday. He almost scored his first goal but it hit the post. Then he accidentally kicked it into the other team’s goal. He was having a blast like always and he got to hand out the snacks at the end of the game. Jeremiah and Davin were practicing and the ball hit Davin in the face. He said “Dad, please don’t pass the ball to my nose anymore.”
