A week in MS

Bo and I made it back from MS last Thursday, we had such a wonderful trip!  We hated to leave.  It’s always so good to go home…time with family, just the feeling of being “home”, mom there to cook dinner, she even did some of our laundry!!  Bo had SO much fun with Pop and Bebe…he definitely knows who they are and loves them oh so very much.  He’d wake up in the mornings and point saying “Pop, Bebe”  He’s really grown and is talking much more than the last time they saw him so it was a lot of fun for them to spend time together. 

While we were there Bo got sick and after two trips to the doctor we learned he had hand, foot, and mouth.  It’s a very common thing that almost all children get at some point.  He was covered in a horrible rash, it was on/in his mouth and really bad on his little feet.  It absolutely broke my heart because nothing really helped.  I was up one night until 3:30 just scratching his feet for him while he tried to go back to sleep.  Because he got sick we had to miss out on seeing a lot of our friends.  The positive is that we were both forced to stay home and rest which is never a bad thing in my book!

The trip was great, the drive wasn’t bad either.  It was my first time to drive a 7hr trip alone with a toddler.  I must say that Bo did fabulous!!!!  Thanks mom and dad for a wonderful trip, we’ll see you again soon!
