I still have this major cough that sends me into constant fits, and I'm tired all the time. David threw up last night and slept the entire morning. But, I called the nurse, and she said he's no longer contagious, so we threw open the doors of our house, and we had a birthday party.

Happy Birthday David!

He's five. On his actual birthday, two days ago, he got tons of lovely phone calls from the relatives. He also got the dinosaur playmobile volcano which he's been wanting forever. He was very excited.

Tonight we had the family party with gluten-free pizza and ice cream Sundays. We all enjoyed it. Poor David said his tummy hurt and didn't eat much. Given last night, we didn't push it. We all opened Christmas crackers and read really bad jokes.
