Stomach Flu.

*WARNING: this post is not for the week of stomach*

So we started this week off with Kadence randomly throwing up on me Monday. It was lovely. And lucky for me, I was home alone -- so I had to try to maneuver that whole cleanup process of her and I and the house on my own. FUN. Tuesday we went the whole day and she seemed to be fine until about 5 o'clock. I was making dinner and she was playing in the FunZone, when I suddenly smelled the most awful smell of my life and looked over the counter and yes, you guessed it, she's playing in her poop *gag* So I clean everything up including giving her a bath and manage to not burn dinner :) Jason got home shortly after and we proceeded to have what I thought might be a good evening. Laid Kadence down for bed with a milk bottle in her belly. Like 5 minutes later she starts shrieking at the top of her lungs. I tried to calm her down but to no avail so I made the mistake of picking her up -- and yes, you guessed it, she projectile vomited yet another entire load on a very surprised and disgusted me. Why does she wait till I pick her up?! HAHA (she's evil) So back to the bath tub we BOTH go and Jason gives her a bath (trying not to puke himself. men are wimps) whilst I take a cold shower and clean up real quick. Finally get her to go to sleep after all that and we sit down around 8:30 to watch some TV.

Well, 12:45am rolls around and I'm up sick in the bathroom with what we've now dubbed, "The Flu With A Vengeance" -- Kadence proceeds to wake up about 45 minutes later and is finally hungry after her whole episode earlier..and whilst making her a bottle, I have to run and have another episode. And then sleep at last.

Luckily for me (and her) that was the last of it for us. We had a couple lazy days of getting our strength back and eating the B.R.A.T. diet :(  Jason ended up getting it on Thursday, but he's recovered now too. We thought she might've had a milk allergy when it was only her because she was coming out both ends and kind of had a little rash after certain events through out the day. We've switched back to Silk just to be on the safe side, but I do think we all got the bug and it started with our little angel (sarcasm). Point of origin: Perhaps the church nursery on Saturday? Although MeeMaw and PeePaw kept her that night/following day at their house and seem to be fine? Who knows.

Other than that, life is back to normal and we're looking forward to getting out of the house this weekend. It's cold here in Nashville, but not unbearable. It goes from 30 one day back to 60 the next. The frequent rain though has made it kind of a dreary Christmas season. I wish it would just hurry up and get to the snow -- at least that's more pleasant than rain -- well, kind of :) It's definitely prettier!
