Stomach Bugs to Swimming Pools

The stomach bug killed us.

Killed us dead.

D-E-A-D.

For 24 hours Kris and I were incapacitated. (Why is it not illegal for both parents to be sick at the same time?) Of course we still had little man and my mom to look after. It was miserable.

We set up camp in different rooms so no matter where Jackson wanted to play, there was adult supervision. We didn't move unless you count running back and forth to the bathroom. I won't get into detail - I am sure you can figure it out.

We ate cereal for dinner and fruit and veggies straight out of the fridge. We didn't change out of pajamas or shower or wash up. Pretty sure there were tears from everyone but we survived. (The 12+ hours of sleep might have something to do with it.)

And then? Our pool opened up and the sun broke us out of our prison.
So, I am still here hanging on and recovering. Hope the sun is shining for you my friends!

  4. Oh my! It's bad enough if you get sick (because moms aren't allowed to be sick) but both of you! Not good... not at all.

  5. Stomach troubles are the worst. THE WORST.

    But they say sunshine is the best disinfectant!

  6. I think I have only been sick, like can't hardly move with the stomach bug, one time since I became a mom almost three years ago. Moms really are NOT supposed to get sick. And, if Daddy is sick, too, it's twice as bad. I'm glad you guys got through it!

  7. Ugh, I'm sorry that you were BOTH sick at the same time! That's rough. We seem to take turns here being sick, but still, it's soooo hard with a little one.

  8. Undeniably consider that which you said. Your favorite justification
    appeared to be on the internet the easiest thing to
    understand of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while other people think
    about worries that they plainly don't understand about. You managed to hit the nail upon the highest as smartly as defined out the entire thing with no need side-effects , other people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thank you

  12. An intriguing discussion is worth comment. I do believe that you should write more about this issue, it might not be a taboo subject but generally folks don't discuss such issues. To the next! Kind regards!!

    added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I recieve four emails with

  15. Great blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
    I'm planning to start my own website soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you propose starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many options out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any tips? Thanks!
