general sillyness and a very gross story

This is a picture of Emilia's newest favorite game. She loves to lie on Mama Mama's legs and "swing" cackling with delight. It's pretty cute and looks kind of fun I must admit...

So Emilia put on her latest pair of jeans. When she was getting dressed though she decided it would be really funny to grab a new toothbrush. Then she saw Mama Mama putting rollers in her hair and wanted some of those too. One can only assume she wanted to create an "enganchabobos" - Spanish for "hook to catch boys" (a very bad translation but I think you get the idea).


And now, for the gross story (you may want to stop reading here if you have a weak constitution.) As I lay in bed this morning marveling that it was 7:30 and Emilia was just starting to stir I was thinking how lucky I was that the girl had slept so well. As I ran up the stairs, full of energy after a good night's sleep - what to my wondering eyes did appear? My child who had just been changed into a fresh pj by her grandmother with - wait for it - vomit ALL OVER her hair. The girl had projectile vomited at least twice as far as we can tell. Sheets, bumper pillows, hair, pajamas, everything. We had to bathe her twice. The good news is that I don't think it's a stomach virus. Last night Emilia ate mac and cheese for the first time and LOVED it. I think she had too much and that the cheese did a real number on her belly. So of course, we are back off dairy for a while. Poor boo.
