Poor, poor Ruby

Poor little Ruby got sick in the middle of our trip.  Actually, truth be told, Aubrey and Carson passed along a nice little bug that they had when we got there, but it really took hold in poor Ruby.  It started with a day of an upset tummy and a lack of appetite.  It continued on in the form of lots of throwing up over the course of several days.  It would not go away!!!  She was so dehydrated, despite me following her around with an array of drinks, and looking back now I should probably have taken her in for an IV.  But finally, after about three days of PJs and missing out on all the fun, she finally got better!  We tried a new place this summer, called Bounce, that is an indoor play area filled with inflatables, Velcro suits, and giant boxing gloves.  Stephanie and my mom took the kids there while I stayed home to take care of Ruby.  Then we went to our annual Boise Hawks baseball game, and my mom stayed home with Ru.  Both were a lot of fun, but were also dampened by the fact that Ruby was home missing out.  :(
