Lazy Weekend

Today was a lazy Sunday. I didn't want to do a damn thing. Yesterday, however, I wanted to go shopping. Darby and I headed out just before noon. We arrived at the mall where I exchanged a skirt for two new outfits for Darby and a pair of shorts for Riley. Then we headed to The Bon, which is now officially Macy's as of yesterday. They had tons of deals, but I didn't get anything. :( Shortly afterwards we left the mall. Darby fell asleep in the back seat on the way to Target. I didn't think anything of it, because it's pretty close to nap time and she woke up early for a Saturday. I stopped off at a convenience store and bought a Gatorade for Darby and a soda for me. I woke her up so she could have a drink.

"Mommy, my stomach hurts really bad."

"Oh, just sip on your drink. You'll feel better," I told her thinking the hurt stomach was nothing.

"Okay."

We arrived at Target and I lifted Darby into the cart. I started to stroll her down the aisle when she threw up in her hand. Gag! I felt so bad and before I reached the bathroom she had thrown up twice more. We went into the bathroom and cleaned her up as best we could with paper towels. She asked, "can we just put off shopping for now and go home?"

"Of course." I then informed customer service that we had an accident in the cart and we were sorry.

Darby proceeded to throw up the rest of the night. Nothing stayed down, not even water. She's a little better today, but I have declared it a do nothing but watch movies day. I just felt like lounging on the couch with her.

We all were all a little inactive today. Darby slept, I watched two and a half movies, and Brian surfed the net the better part of the morning. He was searching for computer accessories for his new computer that will arrive this week. The only active ones were Riley and Jordan. They at least went outside to play ball before Riley went to Mass and when they weren't outside they were pretending to sword fight.

We didn't do much but I need that kind of weekend. One of rest. It's my grouchy week, too. I need peace or I freak out.
