This Message Board has become an insight into the future...
My 8 yr old daughter woke me up about 2 am with, " Daddy! I puked..."
My response," Did you make it in the toilet?" ( please please please)
daughter," Almost..."
....the best part of waking up....isn't cleaning my daughter's puke...
Happens every year. I have three under the age of 8. The older two have just started getting to the toilet on time, but the 2 year old just let's 'er fly wherever she may be at the moment.
Funny how after then first few times, you just get into a system. Inevitably the kid will be in our bed with us because she'll be fussy. Then I'll go from 0-60 on the awake scale in a nanosecond after I hear my wife say, "She's puking!!!" My wife instantly whisks her to the bathroom while I roll off the bed and asses the situation. I then strip the bed and bring everything downstairs to throw in the wash, then bring every cleaning solution in the house back upstairs with me to start attacking the mattress and any other surface that has been vomitized. Then the wife gives the baby a bath while I re-make the bed with fresh linens.
Then of course, we stay on puke watch for the rest of the night with a bucket at the ready.
