My house has been struck once again by illness. Poor little Grace threw up for 14 hours yesterday. I counted 20 times, yes 20. Poor little pale thing. It was to say the least a very long day. Of course of all the days Justin has an evening meeting and didn't get home until 10:45pm! I was proud of myself that I didn't cry until the very last time I got thrown up on, time #20...it was 9pm, I had just finished battling getting the boys to bed and I had my pajamas on and was just quickly calling my mom to give her an update when Grace decided to throw up all over me. (side note, I had fed her earlier because she was acting better and hungry, big mistake). So, I put up both into the shower and then felt much better. Today is going remarkable better. Grace is fine, keeping everything down and acting back to her normal self. Tyler vomited once this morning and that has been it so far. We'll just see what the rest of the day brings!
A quick update on our never ending battle to get Grace to stay in her bed. It is going well! I bought a baby gate that is bigger than the one we had and it is all plastic so she can't climb it. We have had great success with it so far. Just now I put her down for her nap. She immediately got up and came out so I put the gate up and she gave up right away. Went right to her bed, laid down and is already asleep! I am gitty about it. no more hour long nap time games! at least for now, until she figures this thing out and changes on us. You know, that's a big thing I've learned through motherhood, just when you think you have something figured out...it changes! :)
I think that's all the updates for today! Stay tuned.

Oh man!!! I'm sorry! I hope everybody is doing better. We just got through the same thing last weekend. I was sick and had 3 sick kids. My poor mom had to come over and help us out. At one point, Logen was throwing up while in his bed - I picked him up to change his sheets and he started going again - and of course Graysen was standing right under him....she got COVERED in yummy puke. So - while she was gagging and dry heaving, I had to try and get her in the tub to clean her off but had to wait for Kaelen to finish throwing up in the bathroom before I could get her in. It was craziness!!! These kiddos definitely know how to keep us on our toes, huh?
