This morning when Kaipo woke up (b4 the SUn, as usual) he seemed fine and just watched some cartoons. But then when it was time for breakfast and to start getting ready for church, he was complaining that he wasn't feeling well. I could tell he wasn't his usual self of bouncing off the walls, so I knew something was up. Sure enough, he pucked the only thing he'd had, some watered down juice. So I decided it would best to keep him home from church and see how he felted throught the day. He was fine, other than not eating anything and just laying around.
We had been invited to the Robinson's for a Superbowl/Ryan's Bday party later in the day and I thought if he didn't have any other issues that it was probably just his sensitive stomach. He had some toast and few crackers is all. But of course about a half an hour B4 it was time to leave he did it again. ALL OVER his blankets, clothes, pillow, and even some on the couch. I so love the clean up!! I told QUinn he should just take Ame and go, no sense it us all staying home. So I got all the disgusting stuff cleaned off and threw it all in the washer. Here's where the other WAMMY comes.
We have an OLD washer/dryer set, but they have lasted and lasted so why buy nwe ones?? To save you from occassions like today, is what I have learned. SO all the stuff that I listed above is what was in my washer. I go to put it all in the dryer and find it all soaking wet still. So I put it to spin and tried again and again, only to find that it will NOT spin, just hums. Oh wonderful! SO I tried my best to ring out the water from everything, remember this isn't just normal stuff. It is all the heaviest fabrics possible. Maybe THAT is what did the washer in. At least the dryer still works, right?!
SO tomorrow we get to go shop for the unplanned, but all so necessary NEW washer and dryer!!
At the end of this day though, my boy is sound asleep and seems to be doing better. We will see, for sure, in the morning (hopefully NOT in the middle of the night).
*An interesting side note: as I was praying last night, I was expressing gratitude that no had been sick this year, huh. I was just being grateful, NOT asking for anything! And of course Kaipo is the only one of the 3 kids who didn't get a flu shot.
