Oh What a Night

We already operate on very little sleep in this house - the adults that is - that a night like last night wasn't helpful at all. Karson went to sleep around 8:45 and was up around 11:30 for a bottle. No big deal.

However the moment I climbed back into bed, I heard Bailey and her attempt to call out to us was muffled by what I knew would be her throwing up. Sure enough by the time I made it to her room -not long- she had thrown up on her bed and was doing more. I got her trash and let her finish. I helped her off her bed and into the bathroom. Everyone needs a warm bath @ 11:30 pm. Bailey was really brave and didn't cry this time when she got sick. I told her it was okay to get sick and we would take care of the rest. I let her relax in the bath while I stripped her bed and got the wash going. Cleaned the garbage and Bailey asked "Are you going to clean that out?" I said "Yes, that is what Mommies do". She seemed pleased.

After the bath and her getting dressed, she and Daddy moved to the basement. The very last thing we need is for anyone else to get this, especially Karson. It would be a huge blow to Karson's system if he got the flu. So for now they will be as far away from each other as possible.

Bailey has been sleeping for a short while and has not gotten sick since 4. Every time she tried a little apple juice she was sick again. So I had Daddy go to the store for more bread, bananas and Gatorade.

She will be in the theater room watching movies all day and the rest of us will hang out too.
