It started with Grandma... yes I'm blaming my mom... she wasn't feeling well and asked me to get her some Jello since she was unable to keep anything down... so I went... Two days (or was it one day) later I brought the girlies to see Grandma quickly since it's our Thursday thing to see Grandma after EI playgroup is over... Everyone was feeling fine till Saturday morning.. like 3am morning.. when I heard Anna crying over the monitor... at first I ignored but my Mommy Radar was screaming for me to get up... I ran into the girls' room to see Anna throw up something rather fiercely.. so I shouted for Lee to grab her so I could commence Operation Clean Up.. he stripped her and put her in new jammies.. I cleaned and stripped the crib... we put her back to bed with some water in a sippie and tried to lie back down... but the Mommy Radar wasn't done with me and neither was Anna's tummy... So we repeated what we had just done and this time I kept Anna up with me just in case.. she told me that her tummy was ok and then retched all over my pillowcase... daddy wasn't too smart and gave her milk.. so i called the Pediatrician office to be told to give her little sips of water to help her tummy settle and keep an eye on things.. and maybe go out and get some Pedialyte for her. While I was in the shower at 6:45am, Anna decided to heave again and bought herself a ticket to the ER where she earned 2 stickers, a chance to wear a child size johnnie, a Zofran (to make her tummy feel much better), a popsicle and some Playhouse Disney. Meanwhile I was starting to not feel so good myself but I kept chugging away... I had too much to do...
Later that day while at the Harvest Fair I was feeling rather icky and decided to pack our family up and head home. Good move cause I took a nap at the same time as the girls and then started my own heaving cycle which didn't last very long.. but I had Lee call my mom to bring us some Jello. Fast forward to Tuesday and guess who's sick now... Miss Lily. She didn't fair as well as Anna... she got a trip to the Pedi office. They gave her a Zofran and some juice. She took one sip of the juice and gave me her best sleepy look before passing out in the car on the ride home... she eventually felt better but it took a few smidges longer than Anna and me..
And then ... you knew it was coming... Lee got sick on Thursday... and the world stopped spinning somehow.. or so it seemed. Thankfully he recovered somewhat quickly but it felt like a really long time to me..
Everyone is better now.. and we are back to our regular programming...
