I was wrong...

it's not over. This weekend wasn't so bad. On Saturday and Sunday we did a lot of running around. We needed to shop, plus we just wanted to be out of the house. Our stomach's were a little sore, but we felt much better. Orin also seemed back to himself. Micaiah continued to have pretty bad diarrhea. We had a pretty bad blowout at the mall - yuck. I had to laugh as we're changing him in the back of the car - he's screaming bloody murder and people are looking at us strangely as they walk by. Then, Monday morning Damien work up sick again. No vomiting but water just going straight through him. I went out and did some more errands for much of the day to let him rest in peace. When we got home the kids napped. Orin woke up crying (which is very unusual) and we could tell he didn't feel well. He kept asking us to wipe his mouth. He gagged a couple of times and we knew what was coming. We lined the couch and tried to keep him on it. I game him a Pepto to try to settle him stomach but I think it just helped trigger the overflow. It was everywhere! We let him lay on the couch and watch Barney and a couple of hours later he wanted to eat, was jumping around and seemed to be feeling better. Why can't adults be like that? Why do these types of illnesses seem to be harder on us? This morning we woke up to Micaiah screaming. He had thrown up everywhere and along with the leaking diarrhea it wasn't a pretty site. I feel so bad throwing him into the bath as he's screaming at the top of his lungs. I'm glad Damien was still home to help. :-) I'm also thankful that I'm still nursing so I can comfort him when it's done. I'm staying home today to try to help the kids rest. So much for going to my normal class at the gym. We've disinfected the house multiple times and done more laundry this past week than in a normal month - I just hope it's over soon!
