Kath Eats The BRAT Diet

If you comply with my Instagram Stories, you already know our family received hit with a horrible, terrible abdomen bug final weekend. It hit me per week in the past on Sunday and I used to be up all evening with horrible GI signs. I may barely transfer on Monday morning! Then on Monday afternoon, Birch threw up for the very first time in his life. He had no concept what was taking place, and it was so unhappy. By some miracle, he solely threw up twice, the second time was simply water. And Thomas and Mazen lived separate lives for a number of days whereas I bleached the entire basement. So far, they haven’t gotten it. I haven’t been that sick in a decade since I had one thing comparable when Mazen was an toddler. Ugh!!

Sweet Birch wakened asking for the applesauce the following day, and I defined the BRAT food regimen to him: bananas, rice, applesauce, toast. The complete remainder of the day, anytime he requested for one thing he requested me if it was “on his list.” I supplied him a popsicle and he mentioned “but mom, that’s not on my list!” It was very cute.

Thanks to our neighbors for sending over applesauce and ginger ale!! It took me nearly all final week to eat usually once more.

I had a number of breakfast meals and smoothies as a result of the considered salad was gross!

I went to Playa Bowls with associates for lunch:

Mazen and I walked downtown to get hen noodle and potato soups for me, and pizza for him!

Epic Spring Weather!

We lastly have some great spring climate!!!! I can’t stress how good it has been to be exterior and never be chilly. We’ve been enjoying soccer, 4 sq., and newcomb within the yard!

Tell me you’re 5 with out telling me : )

Look at that good boy having fun with some sunshine:

Bro Time Golfing

The boys have taken up {golfing} collectively which I’m all about! Mazen determined to not play baseball this 12 months, so he’s moved again into golf (he did the OP 36 program at Birdwood a 12 months in the past). When they performed 9 holes final weekend, he was excellent! Golf could be his factor, which makes Thomas’s coronary heart sing as a result of Thomas LIVES FOR GOLF! Haha. Birch is studying some too.

While they have been {golfing}, I used to be at a child sprinkle!

That cake was 100!

The Return of Bubble Tea

Bubble tea is an costly, sugary behavior, however the youngsters find it irresistible! We haven’t actually been all winter, so we went on a heat day and received a trio of mango slushes.

My order is a Winter Melon, half candy, with a milk foam cap and common bubbles. It’s so good….till it’s not. Like scallops, I can solely tolerate a lot. Maybe it’s the feel of each?

Geometry Bath Towel

Geometry despatched me one in every of their tub towels after I raved concerning the hand towels I received for the kitchen. It’s skinny like a Turkish towel, and the feel is so nice! They’d be nice for packing in seashore/pool baggage, and are so fairly hanging up too. We are utilizing it for the youngsters of their rest room (since now we have our S+L towels we love upstairs!)

Gaming

We lastly received to attempt the Wordle recreation I purchased with some associates who came to visit. It was SO FUN! You actually need 4 gamers. One particular person is the “host” and comes up with a phrase after which drops on the inexperienced and yellow tiles. The different three are the guessers. We didn’t actually preserve rating spherical over spherical, however the winner of every spherical received a giant excessive 5!

Onto one other puzzle: Sloths!

I believe it’s so fascinating that our eating room desk has became a gaming desk. When we have been dreaming up our renovation format and have been within the the phases the place we’d have created a brand new room to be a eating room, we didn’t know what we might use this house for. A recreation desk was introduced up, however I didn’t assume we’d use it. I used to be unsuitable! This ended up a win-win as a result of it’s nonetheless the eating room however it’s additionally now the puzzle and lego desk. While I’m not thrilled to have stuff everywhere in the desk always, it’s so handy and helpful that I’ve gotten used to it.
