why i now am a proponent of carrying 4 beach towels in my car.

i am sure glad they make leather seats. so this week, no last week, on wednesday we were driving to costco - my sis, e and v, and myself of course. we got almost there, and then we saw something out of a movie- v was puking his guts out - like projectile vomiting in the car. i was amazed. we stopped, i pulled over. my sister went to e's side, she couldn't bare the smell or look of v. meanwhile i was digging out chunks of unprocessed broccoli and chicken and his lunch, pancakes. nice. just what i wanted to be doing. in my moment of sheer meltdown, i glanced in the back of the car and saw a bright pink towel - i ran to the back, only to see 3 more towels!! HOOOOORAYYY!!! I WAS SAVED.

so i threw one on my poor guy, and then drove home. wrapped him up in multiple towels, took him to the bathtub stripped and bathed (well, my sis did :) ) then e and i went outside and hosed off his carseat and the leather with baby wipes - WOW leather sure does clean well :) i was so excited!!

anyway, he puked all night. e puked all friday night and then he puked again last night. thank god i only felt queasy on sunday. or i would have been horrible to deal with. my babies are better - except v is trying to push through 4 eye teeth at once (which might explain his puking too)
