An Unwanted Visitor

Cameron's birthday party was Saturday afternoon. He woke up that morning and said he didn't feel too great. Then he attempted to eat some breakfast but quickly rushed into the bathroom to throw up. He told us that he felt SO much better so we decided to go ahead with the birthday party. (I didn't have many of the kids' phone numbers who were invited so I don't know how we would have cancelled it anyway.) Cam acted normal until about 15 minutes before the party started when he threw up AGAIN!

His friends got to our house and Spencer brought in the Pizzas and Cam laid on the couch. Then the friends played Pin the Nose on the Snowman and Cam laid on the couch. Then the friends decorated cupcakes and Cam laid on the couch. Then Cam finally got off the couch to open the lovely gifts his friends had brought him...then the friends played with the gifts and Cam laid on the couch!






Cam was sick with the flu bug for the entire day. He threw up everytime he tried to eat anything and was basically miserable for his 7th Birthday. But when he woke up Sunday morning, he felt normal again. So we let him blow out his candle & we ate birthday cake. And yes, we had a Santa cake which I wouldn't normally do but it was so easy. (Spencer's brother has a birthday Dec 28 and has taught us to try to separate birthday from Christmas...I guess I failed this time.)

Poor Cam...I'm glad we got to "share" in your day and yet be away from your germs via webcam. Stay well for Christmas!!!
