It’s been a crazy week and since I needed to attend a volunteer training meeting at Reagan’s school Friday morning I decided to just take the whole day off! Sounds great, right?
I did the volunteer meeting, which ended up being more helping get toys ready for lending than learning about being a volunteer, and then picked Reagan up from preschool. I asked her where she wanted to have lunch and she was emphatic about eating a cracker barrel. I was coming down with a head cold and just wanted to go to bed, but agreed and we went to cracker barrel. Reagan didn’t eat much and we had a lot of leftovers so we decided to take them to Daddy for his lunch. My plan was to take James his food, let Reagan see her Daddy, drop Reagan off at her babysitters, and then go home and rest!
We got Daddy his food and then sat down to talk with him while he was eating. Reagan decided to draw on the chalkboard and was looking pretty cute.

James and I were just sitting there talking and watching Reagan pose on the stool when she got a funny look on her face. She jumped down off the stool, came toward me (I was sitting at a student desk), and puked all over herself and me. Yep, within the span of 30 seconds (or less) Reagan went from totally cute and fine to puking.

I felt awful that Reagan was sick, but I also felt like crap and had to get both of us cleaned up in the bathroom at Richland before heading home. Reagan didn’t feel good so you’d think she’d want to go to sleep. Not so much, when we got home she was wide awake and ready to play. So much for Mommy wanting a nap. Eventually Reagan went down for her nap, but it was a super long and messy day. Definitely not what I was expecting.
