When you spend your whole Saturday morning baking cookies for a cookie exchange…
(I totally made these Hot Chocolate Cookies – thanks so much for the recommendation, Julie! They are SO good…and I know have 5 dozen of them in my home).
And photographing endless numbers of “races” so we can see who won…
And playing game after game of hide and seek…
Only to soon after that discover that the rest of the day would be spent at home…on the floor of the bathroom with one poor kiddo.
It snuck up out of nowhere, but Lucas wound up with a little stomach bug late Saturday afternoon. So I scratched plans for the cookie exchange and two of us spent a good few hours in the bathroom watching shows on the iPad until it was finally safe to relocate to the (covered) couch.
Of course, I immediately “felt sick” once he did, and so did Jay but we weren’t really sure if it was just our minds playing tricks on us or not. We’re actually wondering now if Alex’s little bout last week at night may have been related, so who knows?
All I do know, is Jay is now also down for the count and I still feel off. And I haaaaaate being the (maybe) last one. Am I going to get it? Am I going to be safe? THE. WORST.
So in case you were wondering what we were up to this weekend, this was it. ; )
Here’s hoping that the rest of the week gets better!! P.S., have I mentioned how much I despise “winter” and all the sickness that comes with it??? (sorry, I’m a grump about it!)

Ugh! That is the worst. Hang in there and thinking healthy thoughts for your family!
Danielle says

Shanna says
Oh, your poor little boy. It’s the worst to see your kids sick. Hope you don’t get it. Hope your family all gets better soon!
Mary Burns says
Oh bummer! Hope you all feel better soon! Claire & I are just getting over an upper respiratory thing and it broke my heart to see her not feeling well.
Alison says
Ugh – the stomach flu is the WORST – especially when kids aren’t old enough to realize what’s going on and just puke wherever. I hope you are spared!
Thanks for the cookie idea, though – I have to make 6 dozen this Sunday and these look perfect! :)
Julie says
Ugh… sorry you guys got hit! Last spring, my kids got it a month apart so we really weren’t expecting it again. It’s almost better to have it go through everyone all at once — at least you’re prepared!
Kayla says
Oh no! Poor boy :( I am so sorry you guys got hit with the stomach bug! I hope you all feel better!! Xoxo
Sarah @ S says

Marie says
