Well That Didn't Go As Planned

Last weekend we had grand plans to drive to Jordan's parents' house for a visit because his grandpa was visiting from out of state.

Oliver woke up sick on Friday morning. I got him a doctor's appointment for later in the morning and the doctor said he had strep. She went ahead and checked Jonah too and, despite the fact that he was exhibiting zero symptoms, decided that his throat was strep-looking enough and wrote him a prescription as well. Two kids with strep meant we weren't headed out of town that night! So, we held off the trip until the kids had been on their antibiotic for 24 hours.

Friday night, Jordan decided to take the older two cave exploring. He ended up taking a sick day to help get me to the doctor's office (because did I mention that the van wouldn't start?) and really, he just hoped that Oliver would be instantly healed, thus we could get out of town sooner.

We finally made it to our destination at around lunchtime on Saturday. Oliver still wasn't feeling well, but we are glad that we were able to visit with Jordan's grandpa (and happy that we didn't appear to pass along any germs!).

Skyler wasn't cooperating - because you totally can't tell from looking at this picture

He was totally paying attention

So were they
