Not A Creature Was Stirring
It's Christmas Eve, and all is not quiet in my house...
About an hour ago my daughter woke up crying, complaining of a stomach ache. I asked her if she felt like throwing up and she said no, so I told her to try to sleep because Santa was on his way.
Twenty minutes later she was vomiting the potato soup, Christmas cookies, and cheese popcorn she'd gobbled up earlier today. It was colorful, to say the least.
All the noise brought my son out of his room. He took one look at the mess and ran off to hide in his closet. "I don't want to get any barf on me," was his explanation.
It's after 11, and both of them are still awake. I still have some gifts to wrap, if I can remember where I hid them. Everyone in this house is going to be very tired tomorrow.
At least we got a snowman built today!

Hope your little one was o.k. today.
What a nice snowman, can I come and play too?
Merry Christmas to you all.
Merry Christmas. Hopefully it was just a tummy ache and not a full blown illness. Have a fun day!
Hi! Is your daughter better now? I hope it was nothing too serious and that you all got to have a really merry and meaningful Christmas day =)
What a nice and "sensitive-looking" snowman you got there!
Ick. I hope you're daughter is feeling better now. Amazingly, there is no snow on the ground here. Crazy, considering I live in Michigan!
Sorry to hear about the stomach bug. Glad to hear it was a 24-hour bug.
Sorry to hear about the bout of sickness. My kids got bad colds a few days prior, but recovered enough to open their presents (a miracle!) and to eat most of the cookies. We have that same snowman kit, and we had fun with it until someone drove over our snowman at our last house. It was quite tragic. Merry Christmas, Phil, and Happy New Year!!
I want to sing Frosty the Snowman! Hope your girl has recovered by now..
