Day 4 Activities

Our last full day here was quiet in the morning- whew!  And the sun came out- yay!  So Tristan got to play some baseball and run around with Cooper (mom's dog).  Then we went out to lunch for my bday- where Tristan was trying to make sure and get social time with everyone.  He would crawl under the table (yuck!) to everyone's seats and sit next to them to talk for awhile.  Then after a really late nap we went to Grandpa's for dinner.  Grandpa Rick wanted to take Tristan for a ride on his lawn mower, but he was too scared of how loud it was.  We settled for climbing all over it and pretending to drive.  And he has a trampoline so the boys couldn't resist bouncing around on that.  Tristan is sick again- boo hoo.  It's similar to last year where one cold just melds into another and they never really end.  This is a croupy one and I have narrowly escaped a hospital visit so far.  We did steam until the hot water ran out then slept outside on the patio for an hour or so.  That cleared him up enough to make it until morning.  His cough is still really nasty and his breathing takes some effort, but I think we're ok to fly.  I'm not really sure why this always seems to happen on the day we need to fly home- really annoying!  I'm sure I'll get lots of comments on how it's a sign we should stay in WA.  Obviously I'm concerned about being trapped for 2.5 hours on the plane and needing medical help so if you read this before 4pm- prayers that Tristan doesn't have any problems on the flight.  Thanks!  

**We made it home w/o any events except Tristan having to pee so bad he couldn't sit still.  He likes to wait until it's time to take off or land and you can't take your seatbelt off to let you know he needs to pee!
