Our Week on Savary

Jacob is sad that the Canucks lost! Mommy is happy she doesn't have to watch any more hockey!!

Again, playing with the self-timer...I set the camera on a log and almost bailed trying to run into the picture!

Well it was an interesting week away....not one of our best vacations that's for sure! We left Saturday for Vancouver. We first stopped to visit Auntie Joyce, Jenny, Keith and cousin Kylie at their house in Deep Cove. Dave then helped Danny and Jenn move and Jacob and I spent some time with Auntie Sarah and Jill, which was fun. Sunday night, Dave's birthday, we went out for dinner at Joey Tomatoes with Auntie Sarah, Grandma Dar, Uncle Danny and Auntie Jenn. Bright and early Monday morning, the 3 of us set off for beautiful Savary Island. We arrived on Savary Monday afternoon and had a nice day Tuesday, walking, playing scrabble and we watched the hockey game. Wednesday am our little guy woke up with diareah, which escalated to projectile vomitting and a fever by the late afternoon...we took an emergency taxi back to Powell River and took Jacob into emergency, where he proceeded to giggle and smile and act really sick. We spent Wednesday night and Grandma and Grandpa's and at 3am I woke up to Jacob on fire next to me with a fever of 102.4...very scary. We headed back to Savary Thursday am. Friday was a beautiful day and Jacob was feeling okay (he still had the runs) so we went for a nice walk on the south beach. Friday night, I started to feel sick and by 11:30 I woke up with chills etc...i'll spare you the details..it was bad!...so Saturday am, we headed home. Sunday it rained all day....And that was our lovely vacation!! Jacob still has diareah...I took him to the doctor today for his check up...he lost 1 pound since last Wednesday, our doctor assures us that he is not de-hydrated and that as long as he keeps nursing he will be fine....our dr. also said that it's a good thing he's big and can afford to loose a pound or 2....lol..

talk to you all soon
