Our Halloween weekend did not start off as planned. Around 10pm on Saturday night, Cash got out of bed and called to me from the top of the stairs, "Mommy, I have something to tell you." and then he barfed all over the staircase. Nice. Then at midnight, West ran into our bedroom screaming and covered in his own puke. Very nice.
The next morning, which was Halloween, the boys were both still a little shaky and each threw up at least one more time. They took a long nap in the afternoon and seemed to be feeling better. We decided to go ahead and try to go trick or treating. As soon as Cash finished putting his costume on, he barfed all over it and Travis's shoes. I quickly threw the costume in the wash and instructed Cash not to eat or drink anything else. After the costume was dry we went out to a few houses. Cash wanted to carry his puke bucket with him but I vetoed that idea. Although a knight carrying a bucket of puke would have been pretty scary!
I wish I could post pictures of the babies. You'll just have to trust me when I tell you that they were the cutest babies ever! Cute-Bomb was Winnie the Pooh and Chief was a peapod. They were adorable trick or treating in the double stroller.
why on earth would you take your children out and about within 24 hours of puking. this could pass it around if it's a virus and effect other people too - paranoid mama
