Parenting: Not For The Weak Of Stomach

Lucy hasn't been feeling well. She's been running a fever on and off since Tuesday night. She's lost her characteristically healthy appetite. Tuesday after dinner she threw up.

Wednesday night I was concerned about the amount of fluids she had been taking in so I made sure she got every drop of her bottle. Big mistake. Her stomach made sure every drop of that bottle landed on a seemingly magical towel somehow strategically placed in the middle of her bedroom floor. Clean getaway for daddy, right? Not so fast.

Tracy hurried up and ran a bath for Baby Barfy and I shucked her out of her jammies & diaper real quick-like. Lucy paid me back for not getting any throw-up on me by dousing my shirt with a hefty tinkling stream.
