Tummy bug

UGH. That's the adjective best describing the stomach bug. Sadie somehow contracted this superbug last Friday. When I went in to get her out of her crib that morning, she was covered in vomit. I got her cleaned up and prayed it was a fluke but she threw up again on our way to take Reynolds to school. I took her to the doctor that morning where she threw up approximately 6-10 more times. By this point she was dry heaving and had diarrhea. It was PITIFUL! This went on for the rest of the day and then she was fine!
Saturday. My turn. I got sick around 5pm. Reynolds follows suit around 8pm. Josh starts feeling bad around 10pm. Becky gets to our house to help out around midnight (thank the good Lord for grandparents). Payton gets sick at 8am Sunday. EXHAUSTING!
Sadie, Reynolds, & I definitely got the worst of it. Reynolds & I slept in the same bed Saturday night and we were up sick at least 1-2 times/hour. Mine lasted about 18 hours but Reynolds drug on and on. He finally started feeling better Monday morning.
Josh never got sick but got a high fever while his body fought the virus off. Payton got sick once and was hunky dory thank God. And Savannah.....well, it must be nice to have a room on the opposite side of the house because she never got sick!
We are all alive but a few pounds lighter and I hope the tummy bug stays FAR away from our family forever!!!



Little miss sunshine even when she's sick!
