Seven Signs You Love Your Baby:
1. You use your body as a vomit shield to protect the carpet so you can "gently" carry her to the bathroom instead of rushing her in there.
2. You clean the vomit out of her hair before your own.
3.
You try to sleep between the midnight vomitings (10+ of them!), but despite your utter exhaustion by 2:30am, you still just lie awake listening for any sign of distress from the next room so you can rush in.4. You decide to just sleep in your vomit-ey nightshirt so you can hold her next time she yaks without worrying about it.
5. You kiss and kiss her vomit-reeking forehead inbetween bouts.
6. You are up at midnight doing your favorite thing: laundry.
7. You spend the next morning standing at the bathroom sink with woolite, enzyme, towels, and all her favorite stuffed animals, carefully hand-cleaning the throw-up-ey parts and trying to get the smell out without ruining them, sniffing every corner to make sure you didn't miss any, toweling off as much water off as you can, and setting them in a warm place to dry.
Poor baby girl. It's been a couple of hours since she last upchucked. I hope she's done.

That's dedication.
In college, my roommates and I used to say that you're truly a friend when you're willing to hold her hair while she puked.
Hey--you now have the perfect excuse to skip church on Sunday! I read a few months ago (just after our last bout of the barfs, picked up from people who were seemingly all better) that the body can still shed virus 1-3 days after your last symptoms. Gotta love those stomach viruses--they really know how to survive.
Man that stinks. When I was 8 months pregnant with Dallin, Mia got it, then Ben got it, then I got it. What I am trying to say is that if it is somethiong contagious.....I hope you and Jared don't get it. This may be crazy and I apologize if it is......but, if the toys pictured here are the ones you washed, why didn't you just throw them in the washer? I always wash my kids stuffed animals in the washer and it works great. Maybe they have parts that can't be submersed in water that I can't see......I do have eye problems. Great job mommy....Seville loves you even more after this.
holy crap. what did/does she have? where did she get it? and is it gone?
