That's what I get!

Yesterday morning I got up and looked at Heather’s FaceBook status and laughed, Heather had posted something about waking up to the smell of vomit. Later when I was talking to her she told me that her and Brooks had just gotten back from getting Pedialite and new mattress pad cover for JR. Once again I kind of chuckled to myself as I know how much it sucks to have a throwing up kiddo. Late last night Corey started telling us he was going to throw up. We did not think much of it because he just recently got over being sick and we thought he was just telling us this to get attention. By 9:00pm last night Corey was running a fever! It came on really suddenly! I made him a bed and let him sleep on the floor of our room although he ended up in our bed about 20 minutes after he fell asleep. At 3:30 in the morning he got up telling me he was going to throw up in the potty, this time I believed him. I had just sent Terence downstairs to sleep on the couch since Corey was so restless and neither of us were getting any sleep. We almost made it to the potty but instead hit the threshold of the bathroom. This morning he’s still pretty miserable and definitely running a fever. I don’t know where he keeps getting sick from! I am guessing it’s from the child watch at the YMCA but Connor is not getting sick and our friends take their kids there and they have not gotten sick either. Oh well, looks like our memorial day will be spent low key, taking care of a sick little boy.

That’s what I get for laughing at my sister.

Dang! That sounds like the pits! Lucky us we have transitioned from vomit to blow out diapers every few hours. oh wait...
