So, we had this great weekend planned that I had been looking forward to for a few weeks. We left early on Saturday to drive to Gurnee. We planned to go to Gurnee Mills shopping and then spend the rest of the day at Keylime Cove watermark where we were staying overnight. Ray & I were calling it our Family Fun Weekend, a little alternative to our last few Valentine weekeends in Oakbrook. We were also excited because this was our first time taking Kenley overnight where it would be just the 3 of us.
We ended up in our hotel room at. 5:00 trying to get Kenley to sleep. She seemed so tired, but she was just crying and crying. After a few hours of her alternating between sleeping and crying, Ray and I realized we would not be Taking her to the water park or out to dinner as we had planned. We ended up tiptoeing orotund the hotel room, whispering to each other, and watching The Hangover on mute. At one point we considered packing up and coming home around midnight, but we were sure that Kenley would eventually fall into a deep sleep and we would go to the water park first thing in the morning. By 3:00 am it was clear that something was wrong. I don't think any of us got much sleep. So, around 8:00am we threw our stuff in our bags and came home. Kenley has been sleeping most of the day, and I'm planning on taking her to the doctor tomorrow. I think she might have an ear infection or someThing.
I know there is nothing you can do when your child is sick, and I hate seeing her cranky because she is not feeling well. I just had this idea of what this weekend would be like, and this was not it. I really felt like all 3 of us needed this little getaway, and it definitely did not go as planned. So, I was hoping to have some pictures of Kenley in her bathing suit, but instead here is one of her eating a Popsicle. It was the only thing I could get her to eat. Hopefully she will be feeling better soon, and we will have to have Family Fun Weekend take 2!
