It started out at 4:30 am......
As Nana put it, "It was like watching paint dry" yesterday, as we all watched the tsunami warning coverage yesterday. No big waves materialized, but roads were closed, and people were sent to higher ground, bringing Mommy's friend Michelle and her family to the house even before the sun came up. We made sure our house guests, Michelle and Adam and baby Allison were well fed. Daddy made waffles, bacon, and a fruit salad for breakfast. Mommy made pizza and about 20 spam musubi (using her 3 at a time musubi maker that a parent gave her as a gift), introducing Adam (they're originally from Texas) to his first spam musubi. Baby Allison used my pack n play to take a 3 hour nap (the longest ever!). Then, I took a 3 hour nap after she woke up.
So, yes, you could say it was a momentous occasion for all.
Even though it was kind of a lost day, at least no damage was done and no one was hurt. The city was really organized and proved that they're prepared for the next time.
We actually went to Kamehameha Schools' annual Ho'olaule'a in the afternoon, but I wasn't so into all the rides.
What Mommy and Daddy really weren't prepared for though was for me to be throwing up all night long. It all started as we pulled into the driveway at around 10:30 pm last night after having Daddy's belated birthday dinner at Ruth Chris' Steakhouse with Nana and Pop.
Here I am busy reading my book while we wait for Nana and Pop at the restaurant...
And calculating the tip after dinner...
And playing hide-and-seek and chase Chase outside.....
Apparently, this happened when I was asleep:
First, Daddy is frustrated because his magic candles are gettin' the best of him...
Daddy can still break out a birthday smile....After all, it is his favorite birthday cake from Leonard's Bakery.
And he already had flamin' strawberries at Ruth Chris' for dessert!
After all of these festivities, we headed home....With me still fast asleep in the car...But, as soon as the car came to a stop, I threw up all over my carseat. Then, a couple of more times down the driveway. I threw up a few times every hour all night long as I tried to go to sleep and Mommy and Daddy tried to keep up with my laundry and bucket changes. It was a long night, and just like yesterday, we're not sure if we're in the clear yet.
Mommy and Daddy hope that the worst is over. (But it looks like we'll be indoors all day again today as the sunny skies we once had yesterday have turned to blustery, windy, rainy ones today.) I guess you could say I'm making up for the lack of waves yesterday. Gotta throw in some excitement somehow.
Can we just sleep all day today? (and Mommy wants to know if she can get another weekend to replace this one...It was a real doozy.)
