Noooooo!

Well, the stomach flu hit our house today. Caleb has thrown up a couple times already, none of which made it into a toilet or bowl. The last one was next to the toilet, so we're getting closer. I keep looking at Isaac and thinking, is there any way he will not get this?! I'm not too thrilled at the idea of getting it myself, but a puking baby is not pleasant for the baby or parents cleaning up. So everyone, please pray that the rest of our household doesn't get sick! And also that the cleanup crew keeps a good attitude. Here's to praying the rest of you have healthy households!

Oh, I feel for you. Kids that are vomiting also means you'll probably get even less sleep than usual...and being sleep deprived will be wonderful for your immune system. I'll be praying that the flu doesn't sweep through the whole household! My advice is to spread beach towels (or maybe even a tarp) all over the couch and the floor around the couch. Then maybe you'll "only" be washing beach towels instead of scrubbing the floor all the time. I've also found that my kids will stress about puking into a bowl, but don't care as much about having a towel nearby to catch anything that doesn't go into the toilet. :)

PS, I find it funny that now that we are parents we post about being awake at all hours of the night. Maybe we should have stayed up in college more so we could have been better prepared for sleep deprivation. :)

I hope the bug is short lived and no one else in the family gets it!
