Luck of the Draw
Our house has apparently been struck with some stomach bug that's going around. When I called the pediatrician's office today, the nurse told me that it's been with or without fever, vomiting or having diarrhea. Lucky parents that we are, we get it both ways. Abby was up a little after midnight and a little after 4 a.m. vomitting. The first time, it was all over so her and I hopped into the shower and I washed it out of her hair and rinsed her body off. I put a bowl by her bed, and the next episode surprisingly mostly ended up in it.
This morning for breakfast I gave both girls plain scrambled eggs and toast. Then for snack they had bananas and lunch was oatmeal with another banana for Zoë, who had a case of diarrhea shortly after snack... she didn't make it to the toilet. Later in the day she had a bigger case, luckily all contained where those things should be contained. So, with the luck of the draw we've got Abby with it coming out one end and Zoë with it coming out the other. By the way, Mommy was lucky enough to start showing signs of having caught the bug later in the day... appearing the same as Zoë's case, with the added plus of a low grade fever. (Neither of the girls have had a fever.) So, I wouldn't suggest coming to visit us this weekend. : )
Abby @ 4 years, 2 months, 8 days
Zoë @ 4 years, 2 months, 8 days
Enzo expected in 7 months, 1 day
