yesterday morning aubrey was up before six. ack! and cabot had puked on the floor during the night. double ack! and then aubrey had a runny poop explosion. sweet. and to boot i felt terrible...achy, sour stomach, the runs, just plain ole yuck. but, i pulled it together and managed to get aubrey off to her alternate daycare arrangements (i.e., my very dear friend L who lives five minutes up the road) and arrive at work at a respectable time.
by the time i left work to pick aubrey up, i really felt awful, like i had been run over by a steamroller. i picked up aubrey and came home. after getting through the evening dog/baby feeding, baby bathing and putting to bed, i packed up aubrey's things for the next day and took my temp. 100 degrees. i ate a few crackers, finished up a load of laundry (aubrey went through three outfits today due to runny poop explosions), and put my sorry self to bed early.
thankfully, today i feel much better. which was good, because i had a deposition to attend. i dropped aubrey off and made it half way to the depo when i realized that i had left the bottles i was supposed to pump in on the kitchen table. noooooooo! luckily, my partner had some ziplock bags that i used in lieu of bottles. not a pretty situation, but better than nothing. at least i remembered the PUMP. it would have been a bad, bad situation without it.
unfortunately, all three of L's kids have come down with the same stomach bug that we've had. i feel terrible! sigh. i keep telling myself that this builds character and stamina. but i am so so so glad that i am NOT a single mom. i don't know how they do it.
on a brighter note, boopers is sitting up really well now! check her out:
