What is one thing a mom hates the most!?!?

SICK CHILDREN!!!

My Night last night...

1am: finally fall asleep
2am: Peyton wakes me up..crying and covered in puke!
2:01am: I get him cleaned up and back to bed..thinking he was ok.
2:15am: I'm back in bed, trying to get back to sleep
2:30am: Olivia is screaming in the bathroom, I jump up and find her with her head in the toilet throwing up and getting it all in her hair!
2:35am: I'm giving her a bath, because she stinks!
2:55am: Back to bed I go once again trying to get back to sleep.
3:30am: Peyton in the bathroom, throwing up some more
3:45am: Olivia is once again throwing up.

2 hours pass...no sleep just dealing with Olivia and Peyton

6am: I begin to think that finally the kids have everything out of them and I may get some sleep...NOT A CHANCE!
6:20am: both of them are crying...Olivia threw up on the floor
6:45am: I've got everything cleaned up and ask if they want to come lay with my in bed and we can all sleep together! (mind you scott is out of town)

Not more than a minute after Olivia lays next to me she turns over and...Throws up on me and the bed.

Without thinking I jump up screaming because i'm disgusted! I run to the bathroom just to wipe it all off...Then realize Olivia is still sitting in my bed..messy!

By this point I've given up on the idea of sleeping. I give both of them another bath..and we go downstairs to watch cartoons. Peyton crashed on the couch and minutes later Olivia is out on the other couch! I just went on about my morning. A day off of work for me so my plan was to clean clean clean...before scott gets home!


It's now 4:12pm....Since this morning the vomiting hasn't stopped, but slowed down. I'm exhausted, and want a nap. It's days like today where I think, my god..this job is hard!
