"Uh-Oh"

Dave finished his finals Monday and after reading on Tuesday, he had set aside time for family time before he goes at it again the week before Christmas.  Unfortunately our time is not looking like what we intended--- sweet Bennett woke screaming my name yesterday at 3:30...I walked into her room and she pointed at throw up all over her crib, floor, etc and said "uh-oh"--- uh-oh is right.  She had a rough afternoon.  She got sick every 10 to 15 minutes for 4.5 hrs and then it seemed to taper off.   She slept in a pack'n'play in our room with Dave.  Where was I?  On the couch downstairs- it was my turn next.  So it was a rough night for me.  Dave let me sleep so much this morning....one praise is that he is home now and not in finals!  Then this afternoon its been his turn.  We've yet to see it play out with Dave and are trying to prepare Celia for what's to come-  

one funny thing that did happen today was when Bennett and I went to pick Celia up from school.  She was talking about her cousins, how all 3 are her most favorite, when she would see them again, etc.  I told her that Uncle Beej would be getting a job hopefully at MUSC when he finished in Birmingham next summer ('09) and they would move to Charleston. 

"With E?" she asked....

"no baby, they'll buy their own house"

then puzzled but without skipping a beat said "But Mommy who will carry it?"

looks like she understands the Christmas shopping season is upon us-
