This is what I spent the better part of last night staring at. Livie had her first stomach virus. I talked to a nurse from our Pediatrician’s office and she said that it’s going around. It was so pitiful to watch her little body go through all of that horribleness.
I made a pallet on the living room floor and I sat with her and stared at her and worried irrationally that she had some exotic baby disease about her. Poor Adam had to wash all of the gross stuff while I gave Livie a bath and fretted over her. He went to Walgreens at 11 o’clock and got pedialyte and more diaper rash cream. What an awesome father he is. He even slept on the couch so I could get some rest with Alivia in the bed. It was a looooooong night. I did get to take a nap earlier and I also was able to go vote.I took Addison with me because schools are closed and I wanted her to have that experience. She even got to push the big red button for me when I was finished. I hope she remembers going with me and it helps her to learn how important it is to vote.
I am ready to go take a tylenol and lay on the couch, but instead I think I should disinfect baby toys so we don’t have to go through this again.

You poor thing! I hope she gets better soon!
Hope Mommy gets a nap soon!
