Our Not So Great Weekend!

Friday:
It all started on Friday...we were at the Sock Hop and I got a call from Jay saying that Kaleb had fallen at McDonalds and he was bleeding all over and he didn't know if he needed stictches....so we left to go home and check it out. We couldn't tell through the hair...but we made the decision that he was fine. So we go to yogurt and we are eating inside, when Grace, Alex's friend yells out..."I thought you were on a diet!" Gee thanks Grace for announcing that to the yogurt shop (that part was just embarrasing...Grace if your reading this....don't worry....I still love you)

Saturday:
We were at Kaleb's soccer game and before the game starts he falls and hurts his finger....he refuses to move it or bend it...even while he is playing I could see him babying that finger on the feild. It started to swell and bruise....I thought he had broken it...but eventually we decided he just jammed his finger. Onto the next kid....we are going to Costco. Tristan keeps telling us he doesn't feel good...so we tell him to drink some water...maybe too much sun. We stop at the gas station and barf...barf....barf.....all over himself and Jason's truck!! He wasn't very happy with that. We clean him up...he says he feels okay to go to the store...we get to the store and he barfs...barfs....barfs all infront of Costco. Then we go into the store and he barfs....barfs.....barfs in the pharmacy trash can. The pharmacy people are so nice they give us this barf bag for him...Thank goodness because he barfs again in the bag....when we pulled up in the driveway. From that time on....Tristan throws up every 5-10 minutes (I started timming it). He can't keep anything down. When he had thrown up 16 times I began to lose count. He also had the runs...how fun for him and me. I was going to go to the ER but he finally fell asleep and I slept downstairs with him (on an air mattress) just in case. I coughed the whole night with my own cold.

Sunday:
We wake up and Tristan is still nauseated but still has the runs (he went through a number of pairs of underwear...by accident! I told him he wasn't aloud to toot unless he was sitting ont he toilet...just incase). About 7 am....guess who starts throwing up....Yep...me! Jay was sick too...he never threw up....but had the other end of it. We were such good parents on Sunday. We both layed on the couch or the air mattress (Tristan too) and let the kids ransack the cupboards. Kaleb: "mom, I'm hungry" Mom: "go get something out of the cupboard" Kaleb: "can I eat cookies?" Mom: "Sure, eat anything you can reach and want". What a bad day!!! At least Kaleb and Alex are not sick.

Monday:
Still not feeling well! Kept Kaleb home too because I don't want to have to leave the house to take him and pick him up from school. I know, I know...how lazy! Thats right! Ya gotta do what ya gotta do! Alex went to school (that is because she is a big girl to get herself ready and walk across the street to her friends house to catch her ride). Anyway, we are hoping for a better day tomorrow! Cross your fingers!

WOW, glad you can't share germs on the net! Gotta love puking kids especially in public places. Hope you are on the mend. Alex is darling, how fun to dance the night away. I am coveting your pool, it was 90' today, that is dang hot for Utah in May! Looking forward to seeing you next month.
Love ya, Lori

You poor people. There's nothing worse than throwing up and then having the runs on top of it is just terrible...we hope you guys get feeling better!
