Come on over, I'll bleach ya!
The plague has attacked my home. Thursday Ms. Diva threw up in her sleep. I woke up thinking she was just coughing but something made me check her. She was covered in it…and the poor thing didn't even wake up. Too bad I had to wake her up to get her cleaned. It was 1:30 a.m. Just as soon as I put the second set of pj's on her, up came some more. Fun. I camped out in the living room with her so that she could just puke on the floor and I could clean it easily. We didn't get back to sleep till 5:45. Little Man went with Daddy to the sitter so he wouldn't catch it.

As of yesterday, they could both eat again without worrying. Diva is better but her bottom is still kinda mushy, but only once a day, so that's okay…

You're not horrible, you're just practical. Hopefully you won't have much more to clean up. Now if you attached one of those horse feeding buckets with the straps to the kids, then we might have a problem. :)
Oh I have so been there this winter season Diana. Girlie Girlie had it at least twice but it lasted for about a week and a half on and off. Little Man only had it really for a day and I was lucky enough to get hit with it twice as well.
Is it summer yet?
