SCHEETZ FAMILY: It has been a while

It has been a while since I have posted not too much exciting except sickness... Mikayla had a horrible virus that last about a week and a half - it started with red bumps that I thought were chicken pox but ended up with a viral infection in her throat that caused the bumps and lots of yucky stuff in her throat and roof of mouth! She was so pitiful! To make matters worse(which I did not know at the time) she has been cutting 3 molars at the same time. She has really been a super trooper to have gone through all that.

Had a pretty busy weekend. Friday, Mikayla and I went to the church to help Mrs. Shannon prepare for the carnival birthday bash happening on Saturday. Then, after Mike got home we went to eat at Zaxbys and grocery shopping at Walmart- how exciting! Saturday, Mike went hunting and Mikayla & I just hung out around the house until the bash at the church. Shannon(nursery director) gets invited to lots of b-day parties but of course cannot attend all so she decided to throw all the kids in the nursery one big party! It turned out wonderful... great job Mrs. Shannon! There was an inflatable bounce house, duck pond, ring toss, baseball throw, etc games, cupcakes, a huge birthday cake, popcorn, cotton candy, lots of prizes!! The kids had a blast - everything was perfect!!! Mikayla had fun - she went in her chair so she could really participate. On the games where she had to throw a ball she wanted to keep the ball instead of the prize... she loves throwing ball with us at home.
After the party, Mikayla went to stay at Grandma and Papa's. Mike and I went to see a movie (I think only the 2nd or 3rd ever for us together). We saw Fireproof. I recommend it to everyone! It was a wonderful movie... of course Mike made fun of me afterward for crying throughout the whole thing. The movie is a lot about doing nice things for you spouse so... afterward Mike took me to the Marble Slab for ice cream(my weakness) without me even asking- it was soooo yummy!!! Points for Mike!!!
Sunday, we went to church- it always feels a little strange to go on Sunday mornings without Mikayla. It is a little easier but still weird. After church we went to the Titans game with our friends Geoff, Tammy, and little Jackson. It was a great game and the atmosphere there matched! The fans reminded me of the fans of the days when we were undefeated at home! It was great! Thanks to the Reids for letting us tag along! After the game we went to Mike's parents to pick up our baby girl and to say bye to his grandparents who have been in from Pennsylvania. Was a great weekend but flew by!

She loves being under the coffee table now... she is scooting all over the floor- it amazes me how well she gets around that way. Her arms are getting so strong now she picks her bottom up off the floor and pushes herself around.
