Sorry for my sporadic posting this week. Apple was just so sick. She had a tummy bug. I would think she would be over it and then she would get worse again. Finally, after almost a week of not really eating at all, she ate. And ate, and ate and ate. So I can safely say that today she is back to her old self. Non-picky eat all day long little girl. And I couldn’t be happier, I was really getting worried.
My eldest Sister, whom I usually visit in Regina in May, arrived yesterday to drop off her four kids with my Parents. She is going to India with her Husband. He is traveling for work and she is tagging along. It should be an adventure for sure. At the same time we are going to have our own little adventure here entertaining her four kids along with my two kids and my other Sister’s two kids.
The three boys shouldn’t be a problem as they just play and play and play, but my eldest niece just turned eight and she is getting a bit bored already. Her parents left this morning.
My two little nieces that are the same age have a wonderful time together too. Apple kind of gets in the way, she is tough enough, but she can wait.
For now Apple has her baby cousin to love and enjoy. She was sitting beside him on my Mom’s lap and slowly kept kissing and hugging him until she was lying on top of him. He didn’t seem to mind and my Mom couldn’t stop laughing.
Today we were all exhausted but, the kids played well. Round three tomorrow!

Glad Apple is feeling better. Hope y’all have a grand visit with everyone!
Poor girl – it really is so awful and so exhausting when they are sick. My kids (or at least one of them) have been sick since New Year’s. We’ve had the stomach bug twice – but thankfully it is gone now! I’m glad Apple is doing better, it is stressful when they don’t eat.
Sounds like a fun time over there with all those kids – it’s like that when my sister visits with her kids too (she lives in NB). Have a great time!
Wow, good luck to you all – that’s a lot of little children to take care of! That picture of Apple snuggling up to her little cousin is precious! I’m sure you’ll have some fun stories to post about about this adventure soon!
I’m glad your little girl is feeling better. Christos was sick this weekend with a cold – and then of course Dimitry got this cold, too. On Saturday night, he woke up hysterical and crying for a good 20 minutes almost every hour. He was great during the day, though. Luckily, they both felt better on Sunday, although Dimitry still has a cold – but during the day he is himself. Decreased appetite, for sure, but at least he is eating… it is very worrisome when they don’t eat! It drives me insane! I’m so glad she’s eating and eating and eating again! Nice to see, eh?
Are you from Regina?? I came to the Ottawa area by way of five years in Calgary, but the rest of my life was spent in Regina.
