Last Sunday we went with some friends over to Memphis to hang out for the day. We dropped James off in Jonesboro to stay with Papa Duke and Mama Duke. It was MUCH easier without him. We ate burgers at Huey's before heading over to the FedEx Forum to watch the Memphis Grizzlies play basketball.
We walked through the Peabody to check out the ducks.
When we first got to the Forum, we got our grizzly capes and went and got autographs from the mascots.
The mascots were really funny!
Then the kids got their faces/hands painted. Obviously my children are little more conservative when it comes to face painting. Ramsey wanted a Grizzly on one cheek and a basketball on the other. John just wanted his hand painted. I was a little surprised John didn't go all out, but a little later he started running really high fever. That explained his behavior. Bless his heart!
Holding John during the game. He was delirious! I gave him some Motrin, but he never really felt good. He did continue to run fever for the next couple of days, but is doing much better now. Ramsey stayed with our friends and went to the zoo the next day. We drove back home that night. James stayed with Papa Duke and Mama Duke and they brought him back the next day. It was James' first time to stay overnight away from me. Can you believe in 2 1/2 years I have never been away from him? I just haven't been able to do it. He's my baby! I always feel much better when I have all my babies with me. Mama hen.
