We seem to have survived...

... this horrible stomach virus. Started Wednesday morning when I woke up feeling not quite right, went to get the triplets up and 2 had thrown up in their cribs. Get everyone dressed and downstairs, Claire threw up on the floor, then in her high chair. Feed the other two and Meredith a light breakfast - move to the den. Amanda throws up everything she just ate (and more) on my legs and feet (and the carpet). Not much later she throws up again into a hat just happened to be in reach when I saw her starting again.

Thankfully Nana and GrandBob came over to help, as I could hardly stand up by about noon. I took naps most of the day and then spent the entire afternoon night being sick myself; Claire and Amanda seemed to be doing better after their afternoon nap. Then Meredith got sick at dinner time. The next morning A and C are doing better, M seems to be doing better (though she was up several times sick in the night) and somehow Melissa has held off! Melissa's luck didn't last past 7pm Friday night, as she was struck by it too, as was GrandBob. Saturday brought a few small lapses by the triplets and hopefully today is a throw-up - free day!

So far the last two standing: Greg and Nana!

Coming soon - pictures Greg took to show what the playroom/den and kitchen look like when Mommy is out of commission...

That's probably as bad as it gets. I can't imagine having it spread through that many children at once. One at a time is bad enough. I'm glad everyone is doing better.
