We rented the fellowship hall at my parents church since everyone wouldn't fit in this house and my parents are redoing their kitchen and they have no cabinets or sink right now. We had pizza, chips, dip, cake and ice cream. I have to say that the cake was great! Bella wanted chocolate cake and icing and it was so good and moist.
Saturday morning we got up and drove to Atlanta so she could spend her birthday money at the American Girl doll store. That store is huge and packed. There were so many people in there that you could hardly move, but Bella had no problem finding what she wanted. She bought Marie-Grace, McKenna, and My American Girl doll #33 which she named Taylor. She also bought several accessories kits. We had lunch at the cafe and it was pretty good. If you ever decide to go make sure you have a reservation though. I heard them tell a lady that didn't have one that they were booked all day! We had a really nice time there and enjoyed seeing Bella so excited about all of her new dolls.
Now the bad part. We had all had a stomach virus that week. Bella actually started it on Monday February 20th. She only puked once, but she didn't fell great for a couple of days. Finley did the exact same thing Saturday night the 25th. Then Jason got sick on Monday and I got it on Tuesday and Tyler got it on Thursday. Mine only lasted 3 days, so by Bella's party I was feeling fine. Tyler was out of commission until Thursday the 8th when he was finally able to go back to school. Jason's started on the 27th and he was not better until the 8th too! He ended up having to go on Monday the 5th to the doctor and get TWO bags of fluids! For some reason it hit the guys a lot worse than the girls. But Finley did puke on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, but it was only at night. It was really a strange virus. It was almost like we all got a different strain or something. We are finally all better and I hope that stomach bug stays away from here for a while!
