Hiding Out
It all started yesterday evening. Bea was being a bit grumpy after school and after dinner on the ride out to pick up Boo from football practice she said she wasn't feeling well. At one point I even pulled over in front of Boo's school because she thought she might be sick. Luckily for Boo it was at that point he remembered that he had Chemistry homework and he was able to run back in and grab it. Thankfully it was a false alarm and we continued on home.
At home I got her ready for bed and let her snuggle with me in my bed, something that is a treat on Fridays and Saturdays not school nights...but you know when kids aren't feeling well they just want to snuggle up with their mamas :) She feel asleep quickly and all was well so I decided to go take a bath and read while I was waiting for Mr. B to come up and watch our show.
I had been in the bath about 10 minutes when I heard a sound that no mama wants to hear...one of your child puking...on the wrong side of the bathroom door! I quickly jumped from the tub and threw open the door and not only had she puked but it was everywhere!! I yelled down the stairs that I needed Mr. B right away!
He ran up and found a mess! The mattress, sheets, comforter, pillows, and carpet had been hit. She just missed my purse by an inch! Even the side of the mattress was victim. She was literally covered herself! This was crazy because we haven't had issues like this for years since the kids are all now big enough to run to the bathroom. Unfortunately for me she got caught up in the pillows/blankets and couldn't find the 'barf bowl' and I was in the bathroom, ugh!
We spent at least an hour getting it all cleaned up and even after shampooing the carpet twice it still had a funky smell. Desperate for a solution I googled 'how to get puke smell out of carpet' and to my delight there were many responses, LOL! I used the prescribed baking soda and thankfully this morning all traces of smell have vanished, I LOVE the Internet!!!
