Parenthood

Yikes, think I'm starting to stress a bit about Bubbles coming and not being ready. Andy and I have been sleeping on our mattresses on the floor of Vinnie's room for the past week while Andy has taken down our old ceiling, walls, and electrical, and put up all new lights, insulation, plugs and drywall. He just finished putting up the drywall last night. Now it's time for the mudding and taping.

Kids got home last night so we moved our bed back in our room. Would have probably slept really well since it's now warm in there, but poor Vinnie was throwing up all night last night. We had put a pan next to his bed in hopes that he might vomit in it and not on the floor or in his bed (reminds me of my childhood), but it didn't work out so well.


We started out reading stories on the couch and Vinnie said he was hungry, and that he must be going through a growth spurt because he had eaten so much dinner. Then he got up and said he needed to throw up. Now, has anyone seen Parenthood? The scene where Steve Martin walks in his room and his daughter is sitting on his bed and says her tummy's not feeling well? See clip here:



Well that's what happened to us last night. Andy told him it was okay he could throw up. Vinnie said "Okay" and then started vomiting on the floor right there, not two feet from the toilet. It wasn't funny at the time, or at midnight or at 3am, but thinking about the movie and thinking about last night... this is my life, and I can't believe we're going to have another one.


So we're hanging around the house today. Vin is sleeping. Leo is learning how to wear underwear. This kid has to learn how to potty train. He has Cars underwear on. So far he's remembering to go to the potty. We'll see how the day goes. Wish us luck!
