My tummy hurts

Three little words that every mother dreads....MY TUMMY HURTS

Victoria woke up this morning and didn't want to get out of bed. She wanted to sit still, and she didn't want to talk. This is unusual for Victoria. She started throwing up around 9:00ish and didn't stop until noon. Really...she didn't stop. We packed up the farm and drove back to the after hours care in town. Turns out she has strep throat. About thirty minutes after the shot, she was like her old self. She wanted food, sprite, etc. I am sad she had such a tough morning but I'm thankful that we got her meds before we left for the beach. I'm not sure if I blogged about this before but last year David was sick the entire trip. He had a double ear infection and a virus. He had "runny poo poo" ( Victoria's words ) or threw up in every restaurant at the beach. I'm surprised no one asked us to leave. I hope they don't recognize us this year. I'm also hoping that the meds David is on for the ear infection keeps him from getting strep. We will see.....

My parents came over to check on Vic and my dad disappeared on the way upstairs. 10-15 minutes later he walked up to the living room and told me he was checking out the Van/tub packing system. He used my (packed) tubs to see how things will fit tomorrow. He also informed me that there is no room for the kid sized card table in the back of the van. He said he felt good about adding their tubs tomorrow even though we can only fit 5 back there not 6. We then spent about 20 minutes talking about where other things like diapers, totes, and pack & play will go. I love it!

Sorry to Stacey and Paul who stayed at the farm with us last night. I hope and pray your sweet boys don't get strep!
