You Take the Good with the Bad

We were so excited to have Chris's cousin, Nate, his wife Kari, and their five girls, Taylar, Aubree, Kylie, McKenna, and Shiloh visit us on Thursday. They were passing through on their way home to Colorado and spent a night with us. The girls had so much fun playing together. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the aftermath in Kaylee's room.

We found places for everyone to sleep, but then at 3:00am, with two other girls in bed with her, I heard the words every mother dreads, "Mommy, I puked!" Are you kidding me? So, we got everyone up, changed the sheets and blankets, put Aubree and Kylie back to bed, and laid Kaylee down with us. Not 10 minutes later, she threw up in our bed. So, it's back up, change the sheets on our bed, put Chris back to bed, and Kaylee and I ended up in the recliner for the rest of the night. Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep. About every half hour, she was dry heaving over the trash can. Poor kid. The last puke (hopefully) was at 10:00 yesterday morning. Today is a better day. Let's hope it stays that way.

Ally and Drew have both puked - only once - in the last couple days. Ally had red kool aid in her stomach which made cleaning the carpet so much fun! Drew's puked in the garage and managed not to get any on himself!

But still glad that it was not on any of our company or in my bed!!!
