Sick

It's been a rough week here at the Sampson residence. The girls have been battling colds for over a week now. Then for 5 nights in a row Anna woke up vomiting in the middle of the night. It was so bizarre - she was her normal, happy self all day long but would wake up crying and throwing up in the night. The first night, we figured maybe she had gagged on all of the mucus from her cold. After 2 nights, we thought maybe it was something she ate. So we tried only giving her foods she was familiar with for a few days but she was still waking up vomiting. Then it stopped. Weird, huh? She has been drooling a lot and chewing on everything, so now we're thinking maybe it was a combination of the cold and teething, and all the extra mucus and drool that goes along with that. Lovely, isn't it?
Two days ago, Grace started getting sick. It turned out to be a 24 hour flu bug that thankfully, no one else has caught. Poor thing had such a rough night but she was a trooper and tried so hard not to be miserable. She had a 4 hour nap yesterday and both girls are sleeping right now.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we're done with sickness in this house for a while! Now we just need to catch up on our sleep. And laundry.
