Food Poisoning?

Well, we are not positive it was food poisoning, but the odds are likely. I must say, I am so glad that Josh and I were sick together. Knowing we were miserable together made it less miserable. Sunday night Josh and I both started feeling queezy, and by midnight Josh was throwing up while I covered my ears and tried to get Asher to sleep. At 2am Josh rolled out of bed and bolted for the bathroom again. I sat up in bed and felt my stomach churn, but I thought for sure it wouldn't happen. I have only thrown up once that I can remember. About twenty minutes later I started feeling it, and I completely panicked.

Kimber: "Josh I really don't feel good."
Josh: "It's ok. You'll feel better after you throw up."
Kimber: "How do I do it?"
Josh: "You hug the toilet and hold on tight!"
Kimber: "I'm scared!"
Josh: "You can do it!"
Kimber: "I don't know how!"
Josh: "Just grab the toilet!"

And then it happened. For about five minutes. (I might be exaggerating a little bit.) Instead of following Josh's instructions I turned my head to the tub instead, and with every in between breath I caught I screamed "Josh, I am scared!" while he tried to hide from the noise outside the bathroom door. Finally, he couldn't handle the sound anymore and came rushing in.
I warned, "Josh, do not look in the tub."
Naturally, Josh looked in the tub and instantly hurled to his knees while I ran and hid outside the door. It almost seemed choreographed.

And it is a lot funnier now than it was at the time.

  1. I am SO sorry...but I am laughing so hard right now. I had to read it to Derek. But I hate throwing up too. Although I do think it makes you feel better. Poor Braylee was throwing up the other day. I'm a horrible mother because I just stood back and yelled, "you'll be ok." Hope you guys are feeling better now.
