Big Cough and Diarrhea

Last week Noah caught a stomach bug from one of his friends at daycare. Beginning Thursday night, Noah began vomiting and had very bad diarrhea. Unfortunately, Noah did "The Big Cough" all over Mommy three times and Mommy caught his bug too. Since Noah aimed so well at Mommy, Daddy was stuck cleaning up the mess and throwing stinky clothes in the wash so he also caught the bug. We were a family of three sickies all weekend. In fact on Sunday we were all feeling so ill that we had to call in reinforcements. Grandma Barb came to the rescue and watched Noah on Sunday while Mom and Dad rested. Monday, Grandma Annette watched Noah while Mommy napped and Daddy went to work. Tuesday we were starting to feel a bit better and today we were all back to work and daycare. It was an icky weekend. None of us enjoyed it, but we're thankful that we have recovered before the holiday festivities will begin. Don't worry everyone, we're all well again and no longer contagious.

Special thank you to the grandmas for helping out!

I was glad I could help out. I felt sorry for you two. A busy toddler and two wiped out parents is not a good combination!
