Tossing your Cookies

Upchuck, barf, loosing your lunch, throwing up, whatever- I hate it!! As a mother, I deal with a lot of bodily fluids. Blood, not a problem. Poop-I can handle, but when it comes to my kids throwing up, it seriously makes me ill. WARNING! If you can not handle the fore-mentioned item, do not continue reading! Now to the story. Last night Colton said his tummy hurt. I gave him a pepto and sent him off to bed. Around 11:30, I'm still up and watching TV downstairs. I have the baby monitor on and hear Colton coughing. Later I hear him in the bathroom. He's still struggling with staying dry all night and is still in a diaper. I go to see if he needs any help. When I turn on the light, I am completely shocked to see him covered in throw up. He has it right under his eyes, in his ears, hair, and down his neck. Then the smell hits me, I seriously almost threw up too. I get a rag to wipe it out of his eyes and get him undressed to take a bath. Thinking that what was on him was the most of it, I think it won't be to hard to clean up his room. Wrong! His bed is covered. There was even a bunch on the floor. Luckily, it landed on a blanket. Bedding is easier to clean then the carpet. I sprayed the bathroom and his room with Fabreeze, trying to sweeten the air. After I spend 30 minutes cleaning Colton's remnents of dinner, I was beat. I hate throw up!! (fyi, he's feeling fine today.)
