A Day With the Stomach Flu (Day 69)

At 12:46 am last night my 4 oldest kiddos started a chain of throwing up throughout the night. However, Daniel and I were oblivious to all of the happenings until we woke up this morning. As soon as I got up with Daniel, Brent went to bed for the day sick with the same bug.

So what else was there to do but give everybody a bucket, a blanket, a small cup of sprite and have a movie marathon...


By 3:30 this afternoon all of the kids were beginning to feel better. Still slow, but on their way back to normal. We spent the rest of the day playing the Wii and doing a craft. Drew and Daniel had a fun little game going and Daniel was rolling...



And here are Sam and Lizzy having a fun time doing their craft together...



At the end of this day I am beat!! Lots of Clorox, lots of laundry, lots of sprite...but also lots of fun...who knew the stomach flu could have the potential to be fun? I am ready for my bed. Good thing I still have my Pj's on. :) And am hopeful that Daniel and I either already had our turn (in milder form) or have dodged this bullet altogether. Tomorrow (or the next few hours) will probably let us know what is true!
