Getting there

Well, after a nice Valentine's Day as a family, Aliyah announced that her stomach hurt. We wondered if maybe she was just extra hungry for dinner. We sat down to eat leftovers and she didn't feel like eating. I had her go lay down and then would check on her. It wasn't improving. I told her to go into the bathroom just in case. Well, not long after...I'm sure you can guess what happened.

Sweet little girl was so worried and upset that she had ruined the rugs in there. We told her it was okay and it didn't matter either way, but she was still upset about it. The illness continued...and she sick at least another 9 times!! I can't ever remember her being so sick.

Keirah fell asleep beside me on the couch and wanted to be with me. I went upstairs and she was sitting next to me on the bed and pretty soon...well you can guess the end of that story as well...in our bed! Yikes! The washer was running full speed ahead with towels, rugs, sheets, and pillows. The house looked like a tornado. I think Keirah was sick another 4 times. This was Kiki's first time with the flu.

Last night, they ate the typical post-sick fare of saltines and Sprite. Now we are crossing our fingers that neither of us get it. Our laundry is catching up and the house no longer looks like a tornado. I'm so ready to throw open the windows and welcome spring!
