Last night, I returned home from work around 12:30 (after driving on stress inducing, snowy/icy/drifty/slushy roads...ugh.) and wasn't in the door more than 5 minutes when I heard the unmistakable sounds of one of my children in the process of vomiting.
Not quite happening...but about to.
I sprinted down the hall...listening carefully to see whose room it was coming from, then dashed to the bedside of the one who was making these noises. I grabbed a cereal box from his garbage (don't ask why it was in there...I'm just thankful it was!!) and offered it to him for a barf bucket.
Miraculously...I caught him before there was ANY mess! NONE!
One more chirping session, and he slept the rest of the night.
Woke up this morning totally fine. Totally.
I don't get it.
Good thinking with the cereal box!!! Puke is the WORST. I'd rather marinate for an hour in poo than spend a minute dealing with chuck. Ew.
ReplyDeleteWow- if every episode of urp would be that "easy" I wouldn't dread it so much!
ReplyDeleteSo weird! Maybe it was something he ate before he went to bed?!?!
ReplyDeleteThank god he's fine in the morning. I hate the 24/48 hour spurts of the stomach flu where they vomit for hours.
ReplyDeleteFood poisoning???
Woah, you've got skills!
ReplyDeleteI've been up to my elbows in viruses at my house this week. Fun times, I tell ya!
Hope you don't mind me sticking around to follow your blog for a while. I love your humorous tone and was looking for a new one to add to my list!
