This past Friday night and Saturday morning our house was quite active and not because we were partying like rock stars. Well, maybe we were if they are the kind that end their parties with projectile vomiting. Lily caught a stomach virus that is making the rounds and because it is impossible to not get what your kids have, I then got the joy of seeing what I had for dinner leave my body at a high rate of speed. Through it all John was, you guessed it, a Rock Star! He changed crib sheets like a pro (4 times before we gave up and just laid her on a blanket) and drove from store to store until he found some Pedialyte at almost 2 in the morning AND because he’s just that awesome he grabbed some Gatorade for me as he had a feeling I’d be next. My husband, the genius. Best spontaneous decision I’ve ever made.

I’m pretty sure Lily picked this bug up from Thursday’s playgroup. She’s still at the age where everything goes in her mouth and so are all the other kids, so yeah, germ spreading heaven. I used to try to stop her from doing this while at playgroup, but then all I’d be doing is following her around taking things out of her mouth and I’d have so much less time to chat with the other moms which, face it, is what playgroup at this age is really all about. So, I guess this will be the first of many winter ickies that invade our happy home, at least now we have a good supply of Gatorade and Pedialyte on hand.
