Vomit and Rabbits

Last night, the stomach flu took two more victims--Gooser and Patrick. Now Teddy is the only flu-free kid. My sister's kids also started vomiting last night so I've determined that the gymnastics party was probably the source of the illness. I've renamed the foam pit--it's now called the vomit pit! I only hope I didn't infect every kid in Gooser's class with that party.

So today has been a lot of cleaning up messes and serving up Motrin and Pedialyte.

Pickle with Pedialyte pop.

I think the worst is over now (I hope!) and tomorrow I'll just have to reevaluate everyone and see if they are ready to go back to school. I think Gooser and Patrick will probably miss another day though--neither of them were able to eat a thing today.

In other news, I finished a sculpture I've been working on. Remember the little bunnies?
A little closer:


I'm thinking of calling it the Rabbit Whisperer, but I'm not sure.

Another bunny-related news item: Dr. Hoppy is definitely a male. I, um, saw something...

On that note--better go do more vomit laundry!

Taking the Night Off!

The stomach flu has hit the Fun House. First Andy, now Pickle. Poor little Pickle--she doesn't understand and the throwing up is freaking her out. Also--who knew such a tiny body could spew so much? It never seemed to end. Luckily, by the evening, she was able to keep down some Pedialyte--so fingers crossed for a good night's sleep for her.

I have spent a good part of the day cleaning up vomit so I'm giving myself a break from my no t.v. watching and spending the evening with the Real Housewives of New York--though the housewives are semi-vomit-inducing. Could Simon be more of a creep?? He just bought his wife a burlap corset for seven thousand dollars.

I kind of feel like a slacker, but I'm not feeling so great myself...
