Birthday & Being Sick

Despite coming home sick from daycare yesterday, Emma seemed to have a good birthday. We got her some Little Einsteins and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse toys that she has enjoyed playing with so far. We also had a little cake for her. We decided that we didn't need a whole cake in the house for just the three of us, so Emma and I picked up a six-pack of cupcakes and some ice cream from the grocery store. Emma didn't eat much of the cake or ice cream. In fact, she didn't eat much of her dinner at all.

Emma ended up sleeping in this morning until almost 9:00. She ended up getting more than twelve hours of sleep. Once she got out of bed, she didn't eat too much, which is probably a good thing, because it would have made for a bigger mess when she got sick sitting in her mommy's lap. Fortunately she went to sleep after we cleaned her up. Once she woke up she was upset that we wouldn't give her her blankie as it was still in the dryer, having taken a bit of a hit when she got sick.

Some friends of Mel from Cedar Rapids are coming for the evening, in fact they just got here. Hopefully Emma feels good enough that we can go out to eat, otherwise we'll be bringing food it.
