**Disclaimer**
The rest of this post is gross.
Let me back up and give some background to this post...
Sunday soon after the electric came back on RJ asked for milk and he drank a full cup of milk... ten or so minutes later he vomited. YUCK! OK... so we poisoned him with bad milk! We are terrible parents... we blamed ourselves for giving him sour milk. After he got sick and Bob (wonderful Bob) cleaned it all up... RJ drank a full glass of apple juice and had lots of animal crackers! He seemed fine and did not get sick again... hence we figured it was bad milk. He was fine through the night and fine on Monday.
Everyone was fine for Halloween when all the grandparents came over!!
Everyone was fine on Tuesday when Grandmom watched the kiddos all day!!
Tuesday night after Morgan ate a great supper, drank two big glasses of water, ate a yummy dessert and danced around the family room to the TV she said her belly hurt. I didn't think anything of it because often times when she is overly tired she says her belly hurts but she is just tired and her body is telling her so! Everyone went to bed.
I realized that the monitors I brought upstairs had died during the day and needed to be plugged in... BUT the plugs were downstairs. I was too lazy (and tired) to go downstairs to get the plugs so we did not use the monitors overnight.
Wednesday morning after I had been at work for an hour or so I got a call from Bob saying there was a problem at home... Morgan had thrown up all over her bed. Morgan... yes Morgan!! It is officially the first time she has thrown up due to illness!!!! She got sick one time at her babysitter due to a double ear infection when she was like 2 years old... and she got sick one time in the car due to my crazy driving on the windy roads... car sickness... but this is the FIRST.TIME.EVER that she has gotten sick from a stomach bug (and it was gross). YUCK!!! Then... Bob tells me he is not feeling good either! URGH. RJ is fine! (UM... rewind to Sunday... guess he had the stomach bug and not just sour milk... we are back to being good parents again... we didn't poison him!) Needless to say a couple hours later Bob too was sick.
I took a half day. Why? I hate illness!!! Why do I really want to come home to a sick house? Because Morgan and Bob were lying around and RJ was FULL.OF.ENERGY! Thank goodness they each got sick only once! Whew!!
YUCK!!! I guess there has to be a first time for everything... but YUCK!!!
I get home and Morgan tells me... "Momma after I threw up I called you and was crying. I called you and called you, but you didn't come so I went back to sleep." (Insert - YUCK - sleeping in your mess) Put me back in that bad parent column!!! Break my heart!! One night I decide not to use the monitor and she needs me! My heart strings were broken!!
...oh... on a side note...both Grandmom and Granddad got the same bug as RJ, Morgan, and Bob. I so far have been fine... so have MeMom and PopPop. Guess this bug attacked the Lee genes, not the Rounay genes! Whew!
