I am really glad I am not a man, but at the same time I feel bad for my hubby. He had to replace a part on the mower and it took way longer than he planned, he was visibly frustrated. He is just now able to mow and I don't know if he will be able to finish with the little amount of daylight left. I think I will give him a really good back rub tonight to make it better. Hunter and I went out there for a bit before the frustration set in. Hunter was trying hard to help daddy and it was really cute.
Tomorrow morning I have to grocery shop, work on laundry, and finish cleaning. I am so excited though and can not wait for them to get here. My sister is not sure yet if her, my bil, and nephew will be able to make it. I don't know if I told everyone, but she is pregnant again (she had a tubal pregnancy back in March/April). Well she is about 10 weeks along and having really bad morning sickness. She just isn't sure if she can travel like that, so I am hoping it will ease off a bit. I really want them to be able to come too.
Well, things to do....

YES, you can say it. If she won't inform then you can inform her you have to leave.

Yeah, but remember it would've caused a big fight with her husband, so I understand her reluctance to cause more martial strife. Nicole, I'm so sorry you are having to deal with it. Can you talk to your hubby about this so that the next time this happens you'll feel more comfortable leaving?
Man, I don't even take Nathan around my nieces when he's a little stuffy. I take him everywhere else, but BIL is ultra-protective of his girls, so I gotta respect that. Of course, that's why we missed his birthday party, but it couldn't be helped.
Congratulations, Jeanie on your new niece! 
Chelle, that wonderful that your sister is pregnant again. We had friends who had a tubal, and they ended up having to have surgery. I hope they are able to conceive again, too. Very sweet of you to give your hubby a back rub.

In that case I would have to choose marital strife or my child's health?
Health wins. My husband can get over himself. My child cannot.
And I'm sure that isn't the popular answer but my kiddo comes first when she can't defend or prevent things from happening to her.

I chose to not cause an argument as we were already not speaking to one another, but in hindsight I should of taken him aside and said to him let's go after you have that coffee. I am going to ALWAYS check now before we go, she knows I don't like sickness so I am annoyed she didn't bother to tell me about it, especially when I have a baby.

I'm like that, too, Nicole- I always figure out the best response that would bring the most peace after the moment to act has gone.

I would have probably left too (bowing out gracefully), but I've never been in that situation so I can't say for sure... though I don't tolerate things like that, no matter who gets upset with me. Poor little guy though, I hope he feels better soon. That's a huge pet peeve of mine when people are sick or their children are sick, and they just don't care who they infect.  The worst was when I worked in a restaurant and those people would show up sick... like REALLY sick. Oh yes, like I really want someone who was up all night vomiting to be touching and breathing all over my food. 
Jeanie, congrats again.
I got to see my parents house today. I went with my mom to measure the space where their fridge will go, so I got to see it. Then we went shopping cause I needed to get a pot and some utensils to use for making soap. Now I have a little bit of work to do to get an order filled for tomorrow, and hopefully I'll have some time to work on another page, but I'm not sure... they take sooo long.

NicoleAUS, that's a toughie, and I'm sorry you were put in that situation. We have parents who do that at my school sometime, who will bring a poor shivering seven-year-old into my classroom with a basin held in front of their face and ask me "She's been being sick all night. Should she be here?" Er, no? Stomach things, flus, and certain colds fly through little people like wildfire - don't bring them in when they are obviously ill, poor wee loves! On the other hand, there are parents who will keep their kiddies off school for a papercut  . It's a delicate balance, and probably why parenting is such hard work!

Our family's live near Tampa, FL and are not that far from the gulf of Mexico. I was unaware there was unaware of a hurricane though. I hope it dies out and everyone is spared from the destruction those cause.

What has everyone got planned for the weekend?
My family is coming to stay the weekend with us and I am so excited. I love living in Georgia, but I miss having family close especially now that we have Hunter. He misses out on a lot of family time with them, but I have no desire to live in Florida again. Maybe God could move everyone up here...lol!
Today I have to go to the grocery store and I am hoping I can stay in budget. Does anyone else pray on the way to the grocery store or just me? I pray that the Lord helps me to spot all the sales and be mindful of what I place in our cart so I can use our money wisely. Well, my monkey is awake so I need to go start the day. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Lexie, how FUN to have an anniversary bbq! That is an excellent idea! Just one more reason it's great to get married in the summer, huh? (You are talking wedding anniversary, right? I haven't slept much so pardon me if you're talking about a different anniversary.)
Actually, we got married in May. But we married in Cuba on a beach so it felt like summer! We had a bbq reception in August when the entire family could get together (because we didn't have family in Cuba), and we've decided to try and do it every summer as an anniversary thing!
Congratulations Auntie Jeanie!
Nicole - I'm so sorry Nath picked up the other kids illness. I had a friend do that, and her response is "well they're kids, they can just pass them back and forth." I'm not confrontational, but I just looked her dead in the eyes and said "um, no." I don't understand how some people can see nothing wrong with their children always being sick.

Do any of us here live in the Gulf of Mexico? Or anyone's family?
Hmm..the last I saw of the hurricane on the news, it was in the Caribbean and near Jamaica. I should go check out where it hit and how bad, make sure Dh's family didn't get hit. He told me about one hurricane he remembers as a child, man I can't imagine going through something like that there.
Well, I'm off to get stuff ready for this bbq. I think I've planned it so I won't get myself too stressed getting everything ready, but I'm sure there are things I forgot!
Have a good day everyone!

I always get mad when people come over when they are really sick because 9 times out of 10 I end up sick too. I hope you are able to get a really good nap in today. 4 hours is not enough sleep especially when it is broken up like that. ((((((more hugs))))))
