Illness, will it strike?

RJ had his doctor's appointment this morning while Morgan was at the sitter. He has grown! He is now in the 50th percentile for both weight and height...his head however is still in the 5th percentile. Guess I raise kids with tiny heads. I'd rather have a small head versus a big head! He was so well behaved for the doctor...until the nurses came back to give him 4, yes 4 shots! Poor guy! At least two nurses give shots at the same time...so it was only 2 seperate stabs...two at once... Nothing a Momma can do except give lots of hugs and kisses after the fact! He slept for a majority of the day.
.
Picked Morgan up at the sitter this evening. I found out that she 'shared' her fruit snacks very nicely with another little girl (That grosses me out a little bit b/c I know how two year olds share! Here...let me put one in your mouth, I tasted it and didn't like it but you will like it!) ....then....I found out...that the other little girl had vomited all over the couch and floor sometime during the day (and was still there at the sitter when I picked Morgan up). For anyone who knows me they know I HATE GERMS AND ILLNESSES...YES...I HATE GERMS AND THE WORST IS THE STOMACH BUG GERMS! So needless to say I was very grossed out, disgusted, terrified that someone in my household would now get sick, and would even go as far as saying I was mortified. I REALLY hate PUKE! I rushed Morgan home took off her shoes in the garage (what if she had stepped in it?!) and took her immediately upstairs for a bath...oh...after I stripped her naked in the laundry room and threw all her clothes into a "HOT" laundry wash to kill all those bad things I saw crawling all around her clothes! Even her jacket went in! I think Morgan thinks I am nuts...I seriously washed her 10 times before I let her out of the tub...and until I washed her the first time and emptied most of the water out and refilled it she didn't even get her usual bath toys! Sorry...can't spread those creepy crawly germs! Can you tell how much I hate GERMS. Even to write about it makes me grossed out! So I really do know that it wasn't the little girl's fault...she is only almost two...but now I hope when I look at her I don't get grossed out!! That seems to happen in my mind...b/c of this episode I may never ever have her over for a play date...I will...I really will try to get over it...but EWWW!! I obviously have issues...GERMS are a major phobia for me...
.
So needless to say I write this with a fear...a glooming cloud over my head that someone is going to get sick...causing a chain reaction in the household... Pray for me that I got all the germs off her body and that she drank enough soapy water in the bathtub to kill any germs she had inside her!!
.
I can't deal with PUKE...what will I do... Please, pray for me!! Now I must go shower, I feel....dirty!
