The stomach bug is going around.... It's that time of year.
Jacob woke up this morning not feeling well. Today was supposed to be his fall party in preschool so he was putting on his brave face so he could go. Around 11:00 I asked him if he wanted to take a bath before the party. He quickly stripped and jumped in the bath. (He loves baths) No sooner did he get his foot in the tub he said he had to "potty". He got out and went to the toilet and did his business, but before flushing out came all his breakfast x 3. I asked him if his stomach hurt, and he said "yeah, the babies inside won't quit moving"
I guess thats his way of having a tummy ache. He has mentioned a few more times that "his babies are moving a lot". Unfortunately that meant I had to call his teacher and tell her he couldn't go to his party.
I felt like the worlds meanest mom as he was bawling his eyes out because he was going to miss it.
They did however, promise to save him several treats and party favors.
He pepped up a little and stop crying as hard when he found that he would still get his "trick or treat" bag he made. Then a little bribe from me to buy him a toy helped as well. (I'm a softie)
He picked out a skateboard set (the miniature kind) and we played "skateboard" all afternoon till he zonked out on the couch. He must truly have a small bug because he NEVER takes a nap on his own. He fell asleep on his own at 2:00 and its now 4:45.
I just hope his morning sickness goes away soon. He doesn't deserve to be sick, especially the babies in his stomach as well.
