The Thanksgiving that almost isn't...

It's almost two p.m. and we're all still home here in Indiana. Our plan was to leave for Wisconsin by nine this morning, but Amelia is still sick.

I brought her into the doctor's office yesterday and he confirmed that she had a sore throat (no strep). She has a fever and an upset tummy - just another virus.

Poor girl obviously feels crummy, and we can't make up our minds whether we should head up north or not. Right now, Amelia's taking a nap and we're working on packing the suitcases. I guess we're trying to be optimistic and hoping for a Thanksgiving meal tomorrow. I'm willing to cook for that matter, but while Amelia is sick she's only modestly happy while mommy is holding her. I won't be able to do much with a toddler in my arms.

Of course, if I had to spend Thanksgiving at Denny's it wouldn't be the first time ;).
