What a week...

It's been a tough week as everyone has been sick with the stomach flu. :( Mon"day" was fine and but Monday "night" was very very long, Kylie said she wasn't feeling well and ended up with the stomach flu...so she slept on the couch in the upstairs living room while I set up camp on the floor next to her. Dave had called into work that night knowing he had to stay home with her. I think Kylie finally fell asleep around 10:30 - 11 p.m. for the night.

Around 2 a.m. Dawson woke up crying. I went in there and he had puked all over in his crib, he had it in his hair, on his jammies, well you get the point. Poor little guy...was crying so hard, he just kept puking :( So we ended up going through about 3 pairs of jammies, two crib sheets and he had a bath at 2:30 a.m. I brought him to the living room with me, moved Kylie back to her room, since I thought she was in the clear and Dawson and I crashed on the couch watching Baby Einsteins for about an hour when he woke up again and after that round, he was up for a little bit and I put the gate up so he wouldn't go to far as he seemed like he wasn't going to go back to sleep and no more snuggling (I got a little out of him though). I was just exhausted and fell asleep on the couch and when I woke up to my alarm at 5:30 (because initially I was planning on going to work) and saw Dawson snoozing with his butt in the air on the living room floor.

I of course, stayed home with Dave, because I knew there would be no way I'd be able to function on a couple hours of sleep. So I went back to sleep at 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. The kids recovered by morning and were doing much better!

We got a call yesterday from daycare at 6 a.m., so I knew something was wrong...I answered the phone, "uh oh"...Sheila's like yeah, she's been puking since 1 a.m. (her daughter MaKayla). So the kids went to back-up daycare yesterday, which is just acrossed the street...which is nice and convenient.

AND TODAY, lovely Dave is home not feeling well either. So lets hope he gets better TODAY, so we can still have our date night tomorrow! Yes date night, I have a massage scheduled for 2:30 p.m. at Salina's in Elk River and we have dinner reservations at 4:30 at Rockwood's in Otsego and then we're going to go and see Marley & Me or the new movie that just came out today, Grand Torino.

Have a great weekend all and I'm hoping to update with some photos soon!
