Christmas dinner
Don't look too closely - sorry to gross you out. It had to be documented!
Christmas dinner : TAKE 2
Let me lay down the background for this story. The night before Christmas eve JJ woke up a lot and one of the times said his tummy hurt. I started to send him back to bed and then he said that he was going to throw up. So I jumped out of bed and rushed him to the toilet. We made it just in time! Now the next day we played it safe feeding him only toast and such. For the next 30 house he was fine. While I was making Christmas dinner has wanted a hot dog. Well.. it was Christmas after all and I didn't want to deal with the battle of saying no... so I thought "why not". I did think twice before hot dog number 2 but still didn't have time to fight the child.
About 2 hours later we sat down for our festive dinner. After all was dished up JJ went to eat a bite of ham. I see him out of the corner of my eye gag a little. He says to me "i don't like it". Because of the gag I don't force it. I did just see him eat 2 hot dogs. Maybe he is really not hungry. I do tell him the he needs to take 1 bite of sweet potatoes (to try it). I put a small amount in his mouth. Not more the 20 seconds later we have a huge mess on our hands. We cleaned it up and moved to the kitchen table. I don't think any of us had much of an appetite after that, but it was sure good food!

I'm so sorry to hear that! We always seem to have one sick kid on Christmas Day every year!
Poor JJ! Poor you for having to clean it up! M-E-M-O-R-I-E-S!!
This was one I'm glad I missed! But......I was happy to see the photos of everyone. Love......
Oh man, so sorry you had to deal with the flu at Christmas time. That's for sure my least favorite thing for my kids to get.
At least now JJ has taken his turn and shouldn't get it again for what? a month? two if you're lucky :)
Wait that's just how it works at our house:)
Merry Christmas, it looks like the next morning was GREAT!
Sorry to hear you have had some sick kids there. We have had sick kids here for almost 2 weeks straight! Ugh. Jaren also puked on Christmas Eve.
CUTE pictures you posted though. Love the picture of you and Joel ice skating. You are so cute together!
I love the gingerbread house party idea. I need to remember that!
Happy New Year!
Don't you just love having a blog because it drives you to take pictures of things you normally wouldn't all for the sake of a good post!
Sick kids on Christmas is the worst! Ours were healthy this year, but we had Lindsay's Jaren over here sick on the couch all day, the poor fella. Hope you could still enjoy all of your work.
Your mom looks good. Tell her hello for me.
That's great that you documented the entire thing! Wyatt does that "gag" thing when he doesn't like something...I've made the mistake of forcing him to eat something...and we have a nice mess to clean up too! Glad you had a Merry Christmas!
I think everyone has a throwing up story about their kids...I know we do! At least you got pictures to document the sorry sight! Poor kid!
