Well, today was a day full of laundry, not normal laundry, but throw-up sick laundry. Apparently somehow 2 out of my 3 boys have been visited by the Stomache Bug! So last night my 2 1/2 yo was throwing up all over his favorite blankies, crying and taking a bath all at 1 am. Then again, and again, I must have done 3 loads of laundry in the middle of the night, and lucky me got to sleep on the coach with sick 2yo, I better not get sick!
So, what does a mom do with a child with the pukes? Well, I guess I learned to make him stay away from milk. (stay away or you will be SO in trouble, if you know what I mean). So lots of love and pedialite. Made a little bit of Jell-O, but he has not eaten a thing since last night, and has not gotten sick again, since 10 am this morning, hopefully we will all have good night sleep tonight!
Oh, about the other one of my boys, he is 16, and yes he is sick like the 2 yo, difference is he can make it to the bathroom, thank goodness gracious! Or I would be in extra trouble!
Husband came home from work today, and said “you know, last night was the first time I did laundry in YEARS!) It was nice of him to step in and lend a hand during the absolutely disgusting evening!
Stay healthy you all, get the lysol out, clorox wipes, etc… Keep this bug away, far away, good thing you cannot get my germs over the internet (BTW, have sprayed computer station down with lysol as well)

Thanks for the support! I have been a bit frustrated about the whole thing today, as the 2 yo got diahrea!
