Stomach Bug 3 - Parents 0

The stomach bug is winning. First my toddler, then my four-year-old, now my 8-year-old daughter.

Of all days it had to jump up and bite her, it had to be their last day of school and day of their Christmas party. My poor baby is miserable upstairs, clutching a bucket, missing out on the Christmas festivities with her class.

And no matter how hard I try, Pedialyte and crackers just isn't cookies and candy and fun with her friends.

Okay stomach bug, you can seriously stop now. It's hard watching my babies drop one by one, despite how fastly you come and go.

I haven't done so much laundry, or cleaned the carpets this much in.. I don't know when. I want to cordon off my home with caution tape or something, wear head-to-toe protective gear or just run screaming from the house while I light it ablaze.

Ha!

After what we've been through here, that last option sounds appealing...

Hugs... and lots of good healthy thought from us here! Sorry things are icky over there, hopefully they will get over it by Christmas and everything will be a thing forgotten then :)

Hey.. thanks for the tips on gifts for my guy (back in November, I went back and read up a little :) ).. I might go and get a picnic basket... GREAT idea.. and it'll spur him onto taking me on a picnic in the spring/summer. You are awesome!

If there has to be something good about this then it is all happening before Christmas. I know that doesn't help you now but keep looking ahead...you all will be better for the holiday. Keep washing those hands!
