Today started very early, 1am to be precise. Daughter was sending me messages to come upstairs as her little one (19mths) had been sick. She thought she had vomited blood but it was mostly raspberries tg. Changed the cot for her and put everything on to wash. Little one had a high temperature 103.4F so off to the emergency doctors they went. Now I have trouble going to sleep before 1am anyway so with all this happening I waited up until they returned at 3am. Little one has an infection on her lung so it was antibiotics and good old Calpol.
The morning was chaotic to say the least. The puppy (6months) seemed to sense something was very wrong and played up all day - like a naughty child really that's deprived of attention! So with the little one crying on and off all day and the puppy uprooting plants and bringing them in the living room, complete with earth, snatching toys from the toy box, socks from the washing pile etc. it wasn't the best of mornings. Have to say here that the puppy hasn't done any of this for over 2months now and was thought to be trustable hahaha. Add to that eldest son visiting complete with 2 other grandchildren (aged 4 and 7) life was busy here. They were well behaved at least which is a bit unusual really lol.
Fast forward to the evening and daughter was going out with her boyfriend for a meal so we were babysitting. We managed to get the medicine down the toddler mixing it in Ribena and her using a straw. She had her bottle of milk and then as husband was carrying her up the stairs she vomited all over him. So daughter came home and several phone calls to the doctor's emergency service followed but all was ok. At least I didn't have to change the cot again. Bye for now x
