Sickies

My poor baby girl is sick. This is her first real stomach bug in her almost 3 years of life. I thought it would be a one night deal, you know up all night with the pukes, and then take it easy the next day and be done with it. But no. Day 1: We went through all 3 sets of sheets the first night, and she ended up sleeping on the floor next to our bed, so we could reach over and hand her a bowl when she felt the need. That worked out much better than running into her room AFTER things had already come up. Day 2: She was fine ALL day! Didn't eat much, but I figured, she just didn't have her appetite back yet, cause she was dancing, singing, playing just like nothing was wrong. Then on our way back to our house from my parents, right before we pulled up to the back door, she let loose. In her car seat...that's the worst. So the rest of the night, was spent cleaning that thing out, (and I obviously missed some somewhere, because I was still smelling it this morning...)
laying on the couch and just doing a whole lotta nothing. She once again slept next to our bed.
Day 3: She has absolutely nothing in her stomach, except I did manage to get some Gatorade and a tiny tiny bit of water in her this morning, thankfully. I was starting to worry she would get dehydrated. So now we are sitting on the couch snuggling in a blanky, hoping the stomach cramps will ease, and the fever will go down, and that it doesn't pass on to mom and Brooklyn...
Mom is having a girls night out tomorrow, and needs to be feeling goooood!! And so does Brookie, cause dad will have her for about 9 hours!!
So here's hoping for a better day tomorrow!

And here's some pics of Kayla being super cute with Grandma's dollies a few days before she got sick.

reading to them...

now she is the "momma dolly"

night, night!

And tomorrow Mom is going to take a big loooong nap, and then go play with no kids! I don't do this often, but it is definitely much needed this time!
