Thank goodness for Spot Shot

And so begins another season of the kids bringing every type of illness home from school. This is just one of the reasons I hate cold weather! There is nothing every mother loves more than to be awaken in the middle of the night by that all to familiar sound of one of her little darlings barfing up their dinner and then running into, not the bathroom, her bedroom, trailing the vomit. Well last night it was both of the twins. And so I was up all night cleaning sheets, carpet, their entire bathroom(again), and the tile in the kitchen:) I hate, hate, hate cleaning up puke, however, I hate more the fact that they are suffering and there is nothing I can do about it. Shelby is now fast asleep at 10:30 and Halle is laying here miserably on the couch. I hope this is the end(at least for this bout). PS I will spare you pictures for this post:)


I had to post this because I thought it was pretty funny. I of course had left Cassidy alone for about 20 min, she had been watching Dora and all was well when I got in the shower. She came in as I was getting dressed and informed me that Elmo was hungry and that she had given him some breakfast. Isn't Elmo so lucky to have someone watching out for him. I don't think he will go hungry:)(Those are cheezits crammed in his mouth)

I am sooo sorry the girls are sick!!! It sounds like everyone is getting it out here. Good luck, hopefully you don't get it! Cassidy is a cutie...I think I might steal her along with the rest of your cute family!

Oh I am so sorry! the stomach flu is probably one of the worst parts of parenthood (along with potty training.) Hope they all feel better soon and that it doesn't go through the whole fam.

PS Love Elmo's full mouth. She is such a funny little girl. Sammie was sad not to see her and wave during sacrament meeting today.
