Last Sunday morning started out with us loading up the van and getting on the road home to Texas. Everyone was sleepy, but smiling. One hour into the trip, I hear Alyssa coughing/gagging and Addison yelling 'OH MY GOD'. I look in the rearview and see puke all over Alyssa and immediately pull off the highway. I don't recall this ever happening in my 7 years of parenting. There was so much puke. I took her out of the car seat and got her cleaned up with paper towels and wipes then put clean clothes on her. Tip of the Day: Always, always keep wipes, paper towels, plastic bags, and change of clothes in your vehicle. Next, I took the cover off the car seat and put it in a plastic bag along with the puke clothes. I wiped the seat off the best I could. There was puke in every nook and cranny! Instead of making Alyssa sit on the hard plastic seat, I folded a blanket for her to sit on and gave her a cup with instructions to puke in the cup next time! Yes, there was a next time. And a next time. And a next time. We didn't see anymore puke after crossing the Texas line! Woot Woot! Monday was uneventful, but Tuesday we saw fever up to 103 degrees. This isn't how I wanted to spend the last week before school starts, but I'll just keep trying to get Alyssa well and go from there!
