The "non" first day of school

Today is the day my living dolls were supposed to start school.

Last night I was preparing a "night before our first day of school" blog post, all in my mind (that is), when Lily needed to go potty. She had been fighting a stomach virus so I went into the bathroom with her in case she needed help. The next thing I know Morgan walks into the bathroom with us and starts projectile vomiting everywhere! I know as a mom to expect the unexpected, but I really had no idea I would have one child on the potty with diarrhea and the other vomiting everywhere on everything, including me!

Once Daddy Frank & I bathed the girls, scrubbed the whole bathroom & got them ready for bed, Lily slept with her daddy while I was caring for Morgan. She was very restless and didn't sleep well, AT ALL. We went from the towel covered recliner to the towel covered sofa at 1:15 a.m to her room at 4:15 a.m. (p.s. I covered our furniture with towels expecting for the worst!).
As of right now Morgan hasn't vomited in 12hours... And I'm praying she stays vomit free. Lily is better, too. This morning she's running, playing, drinking fluids & eating!
I believe if we are in the clear today my dolls will have their first day of school, on the second day of school, this Thursday. Wish us luck & stay tuned for a blog post telling you all about it.

Additional note... The following is Lily's conversation, on her play phone, to "I have no idea" after Morgan vomited everywhere...
Lily: uh, hi there...
Pause
Lily: could you please come clean-up my bathroom? yes, my sister just made a mess in there...
Pause
Lily: okay, thanks, bye!

It was as if she was calling the front desk at a hotel to have a maid come do her dirty work! This conversation was the most hilarious thing and I definitely needed the laugh! Later when Lily & I were talking to Grandma Suzy, Lily asked her, also, to come and clean her bathroom. I guess she was very worried about her bathroom which was just cleaned by "yours truly" while on my hands & knees. Now let's just hope I don't "catch it"....
