A break from the fun....

The last 24 hours haven’t gone exactly like we’d of hoped. Yesterday afternoon Maggie got VERY sick. We hoped it was just a quick bug, but it held on. At about midnight we were getting a little nervous so we called the ship doctor. He met us in the clinic and gave her some medicine that fairly quickly made her feel better. Unfortunately an hour later I was back for the same medicine. We both seem to have caught the Cruise Ship Ick….actually some kind of noro virus. We didn’t know it before going to the clinic but apparently there are more than the average number of cases on our boat.

Unfortunately when you present with Noro Virus symptoms on a ship you are immediately quarantined for 24 hours. At least our quarantine started at midnight, so by tomorrow morning we should be all clear. Maggie is being a real trooper. Today she was really excited about making gingerbread houses with the chef and a special Princess Tea she was going to attend this afternoon, but she’s taking the disappointment like a tough girl. Thankfully I brought a few games and there are endless hours of Disney movies on the tv.

Before we got sick we were having a great time and hopefully today we can just take it easy and tomorrow we will be back to our great vacation. Pray that Arnie and Gracie don’t get sick and that Gracie doesn’t totally wear Arnie out today while he’s trying to keep her entertained!

On Sunday night Maggie had her Princess makeover. At the time I thought she seemed very tired, now I know she was getting sick.






We gave Gracie a quick Minnie Makeover before dinner too :)




Hello Minnie Mouse!

It's a Dad life :)

Waiting for dinner time...

Monkey See, Monkey Do!

A little pre dinner dance party!

Guess what? Gracie ate Macky! (for pretty much every meal since we arrived)

and "brown" ice cream. She might be the only kid in the dinning room
who picked off all the Mickey sprinkles before she ate it.

More ice cream!

Right before Maggie got sick she and Arnie took a couple rides on the Aqua Duck!
(Princess hair and all)
