The Twins have the stomach bug!!!

So, this morning I wake up to Maggie who had vomited in the bed...what a pleasant surprise to greet you in the morning. Anyway, shortly after getting Ty & Keely off to school she started with the diarrhea. I then decided that it was time to call Boppy to see if he could make the run to the store for more diapers, wipes & GATORADE! He of course was happy to help in anyway as long as he didn't have to enter the germ infested house. The girls laid down for a nap and slept for an incredibly long time which should have tipped me off about what was fixing to occur....About 5:00 I hear a scream from Keely that "Marlee is throwing up! HURRY come quick!!!" And of course she had vomited all over my beautiful cowboy area rug in the living room. Her poor face just said enough of "I'm sorry" for a life time. She looked so sad that this horrible junk was coming out of her. I quickly scooped her up and head to the tub while asking Keely to take Maggie outside on the front porch for a minute while I cleaned Marlee and everything else up. Then while I am washing Marlee's hair and finishing up Keely brings Maggie and says "Momma, Maggie just diarrheaed all over me!!". At this point I am thinking what else???? Keely was very calm and just waited her turn to take a bath after Maggie. (which of course each one of them had to have new water each time & the tub had to be cleaned....yes, I am truly that crazy about germs) I then made my way back into the living room and safely put all 3 girls in the recliner while I preceded to get everything cleaned up and low and behold Marlee vomits again & again & again. Needless to say it has been one heck of an evening. After 6 loads of laundry today, 8 baths and also having to give the dogs a bath because they decided to do some investigating as well....I am ready for bed. We defiantly could use all of your prayers that this stomach bug is just a 24 hour one. ;-)

Poor babies!! And poor YOU!! It must be something going around. Here at our house, it has been a stomach thing but no upchucking--just a bunch of bathroom trips. :) My friend Misty's 2 older girls have what the twins have though. Let's just pray it clears out of Amarillo and SOON!
