Yuck

All I have to say is: yuck.  The stomach bug started with Alayna last Thursday.  She still has it.  Since then Ella was next.  Then Eric.  Cailin now has a cold that is getting worse.  And the others are starting to sneeze right along with her.  Over Christmas break they all had the flu.  

This is just nasty.  Loads upon loads of laundry. Carpet cleaner. Disinfecting sprays. Room deodorizers.  Throw up buckets. Despite the chilly temperatures we have had the windows open periodically.  One minute they are cruising along, next something dramatic and disgusting happens.  

Each day that passes gets a little more nerve racking.  Will Cailin, too, get the bug? (Which btw I'm pretty sure the girls think there are actual bugs in their bellies.)  Will Billy and I also catch this wretched thing? We are leaving on Saturday morning for our first weekend away sans kids.  Will the kids spread this to the grandparents? Will we take it on the plane with and spread it across the east coast? 

Ahh. Yes. Memories....

Please tell me this won't happen...
