yesterday I got to spend the day with 'family' going out for lunch in Alma to celebrate my Aunt's belated birthday.I was feeling like crud (with a new cold) but I wanted to see everyone anyway. My dad watched CO and took him to his swimming lesson. It seems that CO fell asleep just after 12 and he was still asleep when I got home after 430. No big deal. The afternoon is when he catches up on sleep as he NEVER (well very rarely ever) sleeps in past 645am. So while I was shovelling food into his mouth at supper time so we could get out the door to Girl Guides, he gaged and threw up. No big deal. Clean it up and get out the door. At Guides he is being his usual bug and not playing with the toys he brought along...then all of a sudden I hear someone call my name and I turn around to see across the room that CO is standing with 'stuff' all around him on the floor. My first thought was that he broke something into a million pieces but once I got closer I realised that he was throwing up again. Well I scooted him off to the bathroom where he threw up some more and cleaned up the mess. I brought him home and he seemed good. We layed in bed and I read him some stories. I was hoping that he was done. NO such luck. It continued on through the night (I am SO thankful for mattress pads that my mom invested in SO long ago as they protected the mattress) and I ended up having to change his bed three times. This morning LOTS of laundry was tackled and my little one has been snuggled in the reading chair watching 'blues clues' and 'veggie tales' movies on the portable tv/vcr. Needless to say he is in the 'zone' as tv is a treat.
I purchased with part of my income tax return this baby. I LOVE it. I can multi-task with it and I've made my kid believe that it will suck up any toys that aren't put away. I have yet to release it in any of the bedrooms. CO has a hard time not constantly pushing the button on the top that turns it on and off but he is getting better. I was thinking I could set it to clean while I am sleeping but I think that the banging into things would wake me up in the night. When it does the kitchen it catches on one of the cupboard doors and ends up banging the door open and closed.
I also have another 'new' for the house. But I have to wait until I know for SURE that it is going to happen. I am excited!
