Juggling

Well that was a fun night...tried to head to bed early ( 10 pm) and woke to the sounds of the youngest little one saying she needed to go pee at 12:40 am.  I quickly jumped out of bed and ran to take her.  Sat her on the potty but she said "I don't need to go".  I thought "oh well, false alarm".  Put her back in bed and she proceeded to puke all over ( TMI you say?).  the bed, the floor, me, herself.  Fun times.  It took me some time between pukes to get it all cleaned up but I managed.  Thought I'd be lucky with a one time shot but not such luck.  She was down for the count every 15 min for a couple of hours.  I slept on her floor next to her with an alarm set to wake up Grandma so that she could head to the hospital. 
I gave the oldest the option of staying home or going to school and she chose to stay home today.  She promised me she'd make up her missed work so I said OK.  At this point I'm just surviving.  
The little miss can't keep even water down so we'll see how her day goes....maybe she'll take a nap?  and so will I?
Mr. C had a better night and appears to be on the mend.  Now if we could just get the IV out and be discharged that would be great.
