The Georgia Flu Initiation

If you got my email before, you know that Ethan had the flu last Sunday morning (mind you, we've now been in our house a total of 6 days).... well, Michael got in bed with us last night about 2 am. 3 am - I am brutally and suddenly awakened to someone throwing up in my hair, on my chest and all over our bed. :( Michael caught the flu. And let me just say that this is BY FAR the worst smelling vomit I have ever smelled. Philip and I have both cleaned up our fair share of child-vomit and I kid you not - this is by far the worst EVER - BAR NONE! I had to run for the bathroom myself so I didn't lose my cookies - just from the smell! I just love taking showers at 3:30 am. :(

To top it off, we hadn't quite found our garden hose.. and there was chunks and all - so the sheets from our bed had to sit on the back porch til today when I could find. The clean up today was just as fun as last night. Tell me, WHO gets the flu in AUGUST????

So, of course, I have been obsessively washing my hands and lysol-ing everything in site. Way to christen our brand new house, boys! Welcome to Georgia!
