♫ Oh what a night ♫. . .

Just when I thought we were over all this sickness, it decided to start all over again. What a terrible night this has been. I'm not going to write much because I am just so cold sitting back here by the back door. I wish our laptop battery charger hadn't broke. I could be sitting in my nice warm bed and typing, but instead my hands are about to freeze off. So I will make light of this horrible evening and just leave out a lot of details. 

 Jaxon decides to vomit again. He made it to our bathroom, but could not get the toilet lid up fast enough. So, I had to throw away somethings. It was right before dinner as usual. I a bummed that he was so close to making it and still I had to miss dinner to get it all sanitized and cleaned.  We made everyone's favorite, Breakfast!! Asher has been so excited all week for Friday night's breakfast dinner. He too had bathroom issues and couldn't eat. We even bought them orange juice to drink tonight (we hardly buy it because it has a tendancy to give the little ones such diaper rashes). So that was stage one of trouble.

As we are eating, Lyla just starts SCREAMING! I thought she had bit her tough or something, but we just concluded that she was super exhausted and ready for bed. She is fighting her afternoon nap and with one nap in the morning, she is a very feisty girl come dinner time. Finally, I get Jaxon set up in the living room with his "puke bucket," blankets, towels, etc.  and Lyla starts screaming again. Allen decided to just get her out and give her a bath. As he is undressing her and taking her diaper off he realized. . .she had pooped. Oh my goodness, it had been on her for over 35 minutes in her seat at dinner. I just cried. She was screaming at the top of her lungs in pain. I was going out of my mind. I had to get her clean, but she was blistered and didn't want a bath.

*Sidenote* Last night Allen had laid her down and not thought to check her diaper because I had changed it about an hour before and she had pooped then too. He went in to check on her and could smell something. He smelled closer to her, as she slept, and then looked to find a horrible surprise. We had to wake her up and change her. She had blisters from last night and tonight. It is a sickness kind of poopy, so there is no smell. We had no clue. Allen could have died, he felt so bad. I got her doctored up tonight and she seemed better.

Now, I have Jaxon sick again, Asher missed his favorite dinner, and Lyla has a horrible diaper rash. I am waiting for Noah to wake up vomiting tonight. That would top the cake. We are snowed in for the weekend and I forgot to get more diaper rash cream, foil, and eggs. Wow this is going to be a long weekend. Hopefully, the kids (some of them) will get to go play outside tomorrow. I hope to post pics of our beautiful snow. Again, so much for keeping this short. . .
