Gma and Gpa Visit Part 2 and the Sickness／おじいちゃんとおばあちゃんの訪問そして病気

We apologize for being a little slow to post the big finale of Gma and Gpa's Southern California Adventure, but we have a good reason as we shall explain below...but first, when Gma and Gpa had planned to come out they told Anna they wanted to treat her to a 30th birthday dinner so Anna decided on a 3oth birthday brunch aboard the Queen Mary, a Titanic-like cruise ship that is permanently docked in Long Beach Harbor, after worship Sunday...the setting and food were both spectacular and it definitely didn't hurt that Madison's gift was sleeping the entire time!!
コネチのおじいちゃんとおばあちゃんの訪問の話を終わらせるのにこんなに時間がかかってしまいました...これにはちゃんとした理由があるんだけど...でもその前に...おじいちゃんとおばあちゃんがアンナの誕生日のお祝いに好きな所で食事をおごってくれるって事になっていたんだけど、アンナが決めたのはロングビーチに今は永久に泊まっているタイタニックのような船クイーンメアリー。それは元々クルーズで使われていたんだけど今はホテルであったりレストランであったり...そこにある日曜日のシャンパンブランチバイキングはとても有名で行きたいね〜って言っていたんです...そして、素晴らしい事にマディソンはバガブーでぐっすりお昼寝をしていてくれたので大人４人でとても美味しい料理を楽しむ事が出来ました!!

The buffet...
バイキング...

The birthday girl's first trip...
アンナの一皿目のお昼...

The children's buffet once Madison woke up...
お昼寝の後はマディソンも子供用のバイキング...

The view across the harbor to our apartment building from the porthole...
この窓から僕達のアパートが見えました...

And Downtown...
そしてダウンタウン...

Then Monday came (Gma and Gpa's last day) and while they spent the morning hours in Hollywood, Madison spent the morning hours throwing up...again and again...so that night Mom and Dad were kind enough to deliver some Famous Dave's Ribs and we ate in the apartment...whatever bug Madison had had seemed to pass as she was all smiles...even showing off for gma and gpa by trying to kiss Ellie...they are getting quite close :-)
そして次の月曜日はおじいちゃんとおばあちゃんの最後の日。２人が午前中にハリウッドに行って観光している間マディソンは家で吐きっぱなし...午後何処かで待ち合わせをして夕ご飯を食べる計画をしていたんだけどマディソンの体調が悪いため中止：(親切にもバーベキューを持ち帰りして来てくれました...そして奇跡的にマディソンも回復したみたい、ご機嫌にエリーにチュッチュです：）

Tuesday morning everything seemed okay...I went to work and Madison had a normal day...Mommy however, not so much...when I came home she was repeating Madison's Monday over and over, but by the end of the night was feeling a bit better and I figured I could still go to work Wednesday...wrongo dongo...I caught the bug overnight Tuesday and was knocked out until finally going to work Friday...while we shall spare you the details rest assured there were a lot of trips to the laundry room as Madison must have felt left out as she had a relapse and started throwing up again Wednesday to add to our enjoyment, but thanks to all the helpful friends and relatives on Facebook (special shout outs to Jessica and Holly) we learned our error was allowing Madison to continue to have her beloved milk...once we took that away the vomiting ceased...HOORAY!!!
火曜日の朝は普通...僕は仕事に行ってマディソンもいつも通りの体調の様子...でもママはちょっとおかしかったみたい...僕が家に帰って来た時には昨日のマディソンの体調の繰り返し...でも夜になると少し良くなったみたいなので明日仕事行けるかなと思っていたら大間違い...夜中には僕に回って来て水木と休むはめに...良くなって来ていたはずのマディソンは水曜日にまた吐き始めて家族３人揃ってバッタンキュ〜...ヤット仕事に戻ったのは金曜日...乳製品を控える様に言われてマディソンの牛乳をあげるのを止めたら徐々に体調が良くなりました...ゲロゲロ無くなって...やった〜!!

Here is one of Madison's Milk Meltdowns!!
でも牛乳が大好きなマディソンはそれが飲めなくて大泣き!!頑張れ！マディソンの為なんだよ!!
