Fun at the Pizza Party

Well Alex certainly knows how to clear a room in a hurry. The week of the big pizza party at Gymboree she had been throwing up but had no other symptoms, so I took a chance and hoped she would feel ok. After jumping around at Gymboree and downing her bottle, she projectile vomited all over the party, down my jeans and into my shoe, and over most of the pizza. It went up her nose so she was crying, while at the same time I was trying to help "Bob the Gym guy" clean up the mess. To his credit he was very gracious, and even called the next day to check on her. It was all quite traumatic and while I consider myself a pretty calm Mom, I found myself worrying about all the things that could be wrong with my little girl - totally unfounded worries really but it was her first time being sick - I had to go to work that week and leave her, and I didn't like it at all. As a Mom will I worry for the rest of my life now??? As it turned out she drank Pedialyte for three days and by the time I came home she was eating her food again as if every bite was her last meal! In other news we now have one side of our house framed in and finished, the other side of the house is still a work in progress. It's exciting to see how it will look when it's finished and we're hoping to move in before Alex starts college! Happy Belated Thanksgiving everyone.......h.x
