Birthday weekend.

This last weekend was pretty eventful.  We had 10 inches of snow on Thursday and Charlie and I were stuck in the house for 2 days.  Our neighborhood doesn't get plowed out very quickly and Missouri doesn't typically have this much snow.  We have a lot of hills and my Sentra wasn't up to the task.

We were planning on having Charlie's birthday party on Saturday afternoon.  Because of weather and tax season, a lot of our guests weren't able to come.   My mom and Molly came on Saturday morning to help celebrate.
Charlie got a cold from me on Thursday but wasn't too sick.  On Friday and Saturday she didn't want to eat anything and was starting to refuse milk.  She played for a bit on Saturday with my mom and Molly and took a three hour nap while the girls went downtown Columbia.  When we came back she was not acting right.  Over the next couple of hours she wasn't able to stand on her own or react to any stimulus.  She didn't have a fever, but we were worried that she was really getting sick.  At seven we took her to the emergency room.  It was pretty scary seeing her hooked up to monitors and having the doctors doing tests on her.  She took a nap while we were waiting for test results and once she woke up she was like a new person.    She was just really dehydrated. 

Thankfully Charlie was feeling better on Sunday.  We did a birthday photo shoot and went out to lunch before Molly and my mom drove back home.  It was nice to have them at our house and to show Molly around Columbia.
