At 3am I was awakened by the sound of Bekah vomiting (well... vomiting, crying and generally acting like she was dying). When I got to help her out, I stopped -- too shocked for words -- at the bathroom door.
There she was, sitting on the toilet and puking on the floor. (!!!)
I was pissed. In hindsight it's pretty funny, but at that moment I was not pleased.
"Why are you puking on the floor?" It was more of an accusation than a question.
"I'm sick."
"Yeah, I got that part. Why on the floor?"
"I had to puke."
"Why aren't you puking in the toilet?"
"I needed something to sit on!"
I decided not to say anything at that point, and began to clean up her and the floor. Several minutes later she asked, "Why are you mad? You said if I needed to puke to go in the bathroom."
"And puke in the toilet!"
"You never told me that part."
Maybe not, but I had no idea I had to explain that!
I spent the rest of the night helping her. And now, guess what? I have a fever.
However, I will be vomiting in the toilet. Thankyouverymuch.

My, what a lovely visual! :-) Hope you get better soon. And that you don't have the need to throw up in the toilet or otherwise...
Uh oh. I am so sorry you girls are sick! Do you need me to bring you anything? Call me if you do, I'm right around the corner...
Poor thing. Sounds like an awful night for both of you.
Oh no, that is such a bummer, Heather. I get you on this one- I always freak out when my kids puke anywhere but in the bowl I gave them, or the toilet.
Hope you feel better soon!
Also... I was eating when I clicked on your site... decided to come back later at the first mention of vomit.
I am so sorry to hear you two are sick again! But... this post was hilarious.
lol needed something to sit on. Oh no on your fever. Hopefully it will be quick and you will be better soon
Poor little munchkin. Take care of yourself.
