We survived! Three kids, two parents, and one nasty stomach bug spent the weekend together in our home. It was disgusting and overwhelming and exhausting, but we survived!
Don’t worry… I won’t get TOO graphic.
I got sick Saturday afternoon and quickly knew trick or treating would not be in the cards for me. I came downstairs in time to snap some pictures before my kids headed out with their dad. Within a few minutes, my youngest showed his signs of infection and thus stayed home with me.
My middle child woke up at 3:00 AM on Sunday for his turn. My hubby and daughter soon followed.
But it is all behind us now. (Sorry, bad pun.)
I am very thankful that tummies have stabilized, and now I am just trying to figure out the logistics of the BRAT diet with picky eaters, how long I should keep them home from school, and how to get caught up on the laundry.
Having been through a similar circumstance while my hubby was out of town before, I was very very glad to have some help this round. Things like this are an excellent reminder: teething, fussing, fighting, crying, arguing, and picky eating are all doable things. At least there are no projectiles flying from their faces. (Sorry, was that too graphic?)
