sick girl

Stuffy noses, coughs, fevers....I can handle those fairly well.  But throw up?  Ugh.  It's just the WORST. 

Last night I put Rebecca to bed and told my husband that I was worried that she might wake us up that night throwing up.  She had had a really nasty diaper before bed, had been super whiny at dinner, sat in the bathtub staring into space instead of playing, and complained that her tummy didn't feel good. 

And unfortunately, my intuition was right.  If ever I wished I was wrong, it was then!

It took me two hours to fall asleep because I've been sick this week, and my husband and I keep each other awake coughing (he's been sick for about two weeks).  Then, after finally being asleep about an hour and a half, she woke us up, crying, after throwing up in her crib, and not knowing what in the world was going on. 

She got a bath (but even washing her hair twice didn't take the smell out completely) and sheets changed, and put back to bed.

An hour later it all happened again.

This morning she slept late and when she got up she said, "It stayed in my mouth this time!"  (Meaning that she didn't throw up again.)  She's so funny....

She seems okay this morning, so far, though she's hardly eaten anything.  She got another bath, but I STILL can't get the smell out of her hair!  Any advice for getting the smell out???  Yuck, yuck, yuck.
