What a Night!

January 2, 2012 - By Jen

Actually it started about 12 hours ago when Kayla first started coming down with the stomach flu.  She threw up twice an hour from 3:30 p.m. until 12:30 a.m.  Around 11 p.m. Madeline started getting sick, and then Savannah at midnight.  Right now Kayla is sleeping on the couch in the family room, which is moved as close to the bathroom as possible.  Madeline is in a nest on the hallway floor just outside the bathroom.  Savannah is on the kitchen floor with a bucket next to her, and Aaron is asleep on the family room floor.

I’ve been up all night assisting the girls in the bathroom or with the bucket and giving sips of fluids every 10 – 15 minutes.  I feel pretty wide awake, but if the vomiting slows down I’m hoping to get some sleep soon.  Aaron, I’m sure, will take on whatever duties necessary so I can get some rest.  I’m so thankful for his help!  We’ve had our share of stomach viruses in the past, but this is the first time we’ve had so many sick all at once.  Hopefully the worst part is behind us!

    I sure pray that everyone is over that stomach flu.
