(began this post 2 days after Halloween and that was as far as I got when I heard the distinctive sound of vomit splattering all over the bathroom tile upstairs, and then the flu took over our house for awhile and I got swamped with photography clients. We have mended and business has slowed down a bit and I hope to be back more often now!)
So 2012 will not go down as "best Halloween EVER!!!" We had costumes, the hurricane wrapped up and left us alone but alas, we cannot say the same for the flu!
Sweetie complained of stomach pain in the morning but often when that happens, she's just hungry. I gave her breakfast and she got ready for school without further problem or complaint. Well, until 10:30 that is! I got a call from her from school. She'd gotten sick during the Halloween party that morning (but not IN her classroom luckily!) so I went to pick her up & bring her home. She rested for the afternoon but wasn't sleepy so didn't get a nap. By supper she felt like going out but didn't have any appetite. By this point Honey was mentioning stomach pains also. Impending doom for sure!!!
Mum & Dad came for the traditional pre-trick or treat supper and to see them get ready. Costumes this year were a little minimalistic but they thought they were awesome so let's go with that! (PS- Nanny you're on the hook next year for that hedgehog costume you mentioned being able to do! although there's a good chance she'll change her mind about that sometime in the next 363 days).
Once their friends arrived they hit the road and after 3 houses Sweetie was done and just wanted to come home. Murray brought her back while the other kids stayed with Tulip's father and then he rejoined them once Sweetie was home with me. We convinced Murray to trick or treat for her so she wouldn't miss out
on the fun and the goodies!
