So when you really think about it, it’s a blessing to throw up in the middle of the night but feel better afterwards. When you’ve spent a year (!) or so of your life with morningsickness nausea that isn’t calmed by tossing your cookies, sometimes a normal flu bug is a nice change of pace. Of course, it would be an even nicer change of pace if you didn’t have two children awake with you in the middle of the night, as well, but I’m trying to stay positive. And I’m so glad that I held firm and didn’t let the kids watch movies earlier this week while I was “just” exhausted, because today we’re going to have a Pixar marathon.
Since you wouldn’t want to come over and watch Cars and Ratatouille with us, even if you could, you can watch the kids from the comfort of your own computer chair:
Oh, Emily! Were the kids sick too? I hope Derek was able to help you during the night…there is nothing worse than being sick and having your little ones up. I hope you get lots of rest today.
Well, Tommy was up at 3 am because he had asked to go to bed before dinner (?!) and was asleep by 6:30 pm. He didn’t go back down until 5:30 am. Lizzie was probably just fussy from teething and/or hearing me make noise, and she was up for the day at 6. Derek helped during the night, but he had to go to work today, so we’re just trying to survive until he gets home…
Oh dear. I hope we didn’t give it to you 🙂
We watched enough TV in the past week to last a few years. I have such a love/hate relationship with the TV.
