That's just too bad for me...ok, and them too.

Carter got out of the bathtub this morning and was trying his best to stay warm in his towel and says to me, "Mom, when I grow up I'm gonna be....I'm gonna be a scarecrow." I love his randomness.

I needed to remember that tonight since Jared & I have spent quite a bit of time cleaning up Carter and Ellie's barf off carpet, walls, bunkbeds (both since he's on the top, Court was missed by just a few inches!!), baseboards.

It was fine on Monday night when both of my older kids could make it to a bowl or the toilet, but both Ellie and Carter started throwing up tonight, ALL.OVER.EVERYTHING. The carpet is the worst thing that can be thrown up on. Super Yucky.

no fun. I appreciated having a home of all hard floors in Italy for that reason.

oh man no fun at all! I hate cleaning up barf. Just be glad you only have to do it when they are sick. My kids puke on cue. so when they get too mad, when they get hurt etc. I have cleaned up more barf than is possible to count :)

Hopefully they start feeling better soon.

I am so sorry Jess that is really too bad. I think Ike might have to be the one to clean up throw up. I hope they are on the mend. Awesome GQ picture of Carter. Did you have some of all the kids?

Been there done that a few times in my life. So not fun! I hope they are feeling better. 3 is such a cute age! Everything is magical and they say the cutest thing in their own way.

Ooo... I feel your pain. It's going around here too, and I just KNOW it'll hit our house next. And of course, Joe and I will probably get it after the kids. I'm really sorry you're having to do that. :(
