After a fun first weekend in August filled with pool lounging and having friends over at the house, we got right back into the swing of things! I had to go to Memphis for work on Wednesday and Thursday and came back in time for Book Club on Thursday night! It was a great time and I actually read the book for once! Hooray! Virgin of Small Plains is a great read for any of you book lovers out there! Now I'm working on The Hunger Games for next month's meeting and I'm already addicted. What a GREAT series...if your into the Harry Potter/Twilight scene that is!
Friday, Tyler's school was closed for a teacher inservice so Ben and I played the "Work while trying to chase a toddler game." That lasted until after Tyler's nap and then we got on the road to Spartanburg to visit Nana and Papa for Papa's birthday! We met my parents and sister at Hans and Franz Biergarten in Greenville for some authentic German food and then headed to their house. The plan was to lounge by my parent's pool Saturday morning and then head home Saturday evening...that is until Tyler started running a fever Friday night. We left Spartanburg early on Saturday and took Tyler to Urgent Care in Atlanta. They diagnosed it as a cold but it got progressively worse and Monday he just felt rotten. You could tell...all he wanted was to be held. He slept for 4 hours during the day and just watched TV when he was awake. I took him to the doctor and they confirmed that it was just a virus that needed time to pass through his system. Good news is that by Monday night he was MUCH better and today he is back at school, Hooray!
Other highlights of the weekend included a visit from Kate (sis in law) and Matt (future brother in law who Tyler likes to call "Mapp") on Sunday. We ordered Pizza and went to the pool when Tyler was briefly showing signs of improvement. It was great to see them as usual!
Have a great week everyone, and remember to get your flu shot, haha!!!
