Easter 2008

Our Easter weekend was filled with lots of fun filled/crazy events. It all started with Alix getting sick. She thought she just had a zit or something on her face. She woke up the next morning and her lip was numb and swollen. She thought she would wait to go to the doctor, but it was obvious she needed to see one. We saw a doctor that was a friend of the family in Napa and he got her on some antibiotics, but the next morning it was worse so she went in. The doctor didn't really do much and sent Alix home. Friday morning the swelling had reached her eye and in Alix's words, "I look like a freak." So, she couldnt get into the doctor as they said there were no appointments, but she went down and forced her way in. They sent her to the hospital where they did tests, but couldnt confirm that she had MRSA so they just lanced it, gave her shots, more drugs, and sent her home. We wont know until Monday if it is MRSA, if it is, she is probably going to the hospital for a day or so to get drugged up. That is probably what will happen. For the meantime she is trying to put on a happy face for Easter, but she is in pain so we do the best to try to ease the pain

Even though all of this is going on, we still decided to do Easter. Saturday morning some friends in Napa have their annual easter egg hunt so we went over there. There are some pics and vids of Noah of that. After that, we came back and did Easter with Alix's family in the afternoon. Noah searched for his eggs and found his cars inside the eggs. Noah got some books and lots of candy for easter. Doesnt really like the candy actually. He will start to eat it and then spit it out, so we have lots of chocolate stains and hand prints everywhere. All in all, it has been a great Easter weekend so far and we just hope our luck can improve with our health. Happy Easter everyone!
