Sick Little Girl

The wedding is in 3 days - tonight is rehearsal and at the moment I am washing all of Maddy's bedding and some extra because she was up all night SICK...poor little thing.  

Yesterday before bed she complained of a sore stomach...but her daddy wasn't home from work (working overtime) and I thought it was just that (because she kept asking where he was then complained of the sore belly)...so I warmed up the "magic yellow pillow" and tucked her in bed as usual...

Hubby came home, we chatted a bit then I went up to bed...I was just falling asleep when I heard Maddy screaming...I actually stayed in bed cuz Hubby jumped up...then he yelled for me, she had puked all over her bed.  I changed her bedding, changed her jammies and gave her some Advil...only 10 minutes later, she puked again.  So much for the medicine.  The rest of the night, she puked off and on and eventually went to sleep with her daddy, sending me into her bed...her pukey bed that was now covered in a towel (because I only have two sets of sheets for her bed) and eventually, Tanner joined me.  Not long after I had Maddy settled and myself, I heard Tanner coughing on the monitor, up I went into his room and there he started to projectile vomit all over me....GREAT!   I brought him into Maddy's room with me, changed him and cuddled him till he was back to sleep...luckily he only did it once and I think it was just cuz at his last bottle feeding, Maddy was screaming and puking and Hubby was upstairs sleeping through it, so I just put Tanner in his crib without properly burping him or letting him digest (this is what I am hoping anyways).

She is up this morning laying on the couch with the heating pad on her belly (cuz the "magic yellow pillow" got dirty last night) - she is sipping on liquids and trying to get an applesauce down.  I am making sure she stays hydrated but not forcing her to eat too much.  I will continue to give her Advil, as she feels a bit warm and eventually, hoping to make it to the city to get some Gravol for her.  Tonight is rehearsal and I want her to be in tiptop shape, but however, it is only rehearsal and I don't care if we just get her to walk down the aisle, come home and rest, as long as she is good to go on Saturday for the actual day!

I hate seeing her sick cuz she is NEVER sick, like I can count on one hand how many times she has been sick (in 5 years, that's pretty good)!

So I will continue to wash sheets, clothes and comforters and just give her cuddles and hope that this passes as quick as it came!

Cheers :)
