Over the past week we all had a bout of the stomach virus. On Kirra's first week back at daycare she must have brought back whatever virus the other (kids) had because she was vomiting for about 2 hours on a Wednesday night. By morning time she was her happy, cheery self, and had an appetite.
Two nights later Both Colin and I had the bug - but it was a 30 hour bug for us! We took turns puking in the bathroom that night (it started at midnight, apparently it takes a couple of days for the virus to have any affect on you symptom-wise). The following day Cintya and Brian were already at our house to babysit Kirra because Colin and I were supposed to go on an overnight camping trip to Big Basin with Jon, Tina and Gillian. Well, those plans were cancelled for obvious reasons, but Colin and I were both in bed and tired, sleepy and weak with no appetite for the whole day! It took until 3 am on Sunday for us to wake up and feel ourselves again. We even woke up energized enough to watch a couple of episodes of our favorite Netflix shows. It's amazing how we were so ill one day and then fully recovered the next.
We are ok with bugs - even willing to camp outside with them, but no stomach bugs are allowed back in our house this year. Stay out!
