A Family That Poops Together

I am so thrilled and proud to annnouce…and just in the knick of time….Seth is now regularly pooping in the potty. And, not a moment too soon!!

This past week, we have all taken turns running to our respective bathrooms. Luckily, we have two, and Marc isn’t home during the day.

We got hit with the most nasty stomach virus. You’ve probably either heard of it, or experienced it by now. It’s taking families by storm, and hits you like a ton of bricks if you get it.

I was actually laid up in bed one day last week and wound up cancelling a gym apppointment, which I hate to do. I must admit, this is one way to start a diet, since you can barely eat. But, who wants to be sick to lose weight.

Tonight we ventured out to the diner, thinking we were all relatively on the mend. If we ate lightly, we’d be okay, we presumed. Well, it hit me like a tons of bricks yet again, once we got home.

Thankfully, we have plenty of saltines, ginger ale and Gatorade in the house, from last week, so we’re well stocked. But, when is this going to be over? Seth’s pediatrician warned that even if you think it’s done, it might not be. She’s seen alot of relapses….terrific!!

Crossing my fingers this will be a better week.

I don’t know about you….but this winter has been so sickly for our family. Nothing serious to speak of, but still, it’s quite the challenge to keep us all well.

Hope your family is having better luck. And, if not, at least you know you’re not alone.
