Oh what do you do in the summertime when all your family is green? REVISED

The stomach flu has invaded our household, just days before school begins.
How did we end our summer vacation?
Wishing we had more bathrooms (5 sick/ 2 bathrooms) you get the picture.
Laying around and watching a lot of movies.
Cole and I are doing a lot of praying hoping we get lucky and it avoids us.
Praying that no one we've come in contact with gets it (primary, swimming pool, orthodontic office, etc.)
Cancelling playdates and swim dates.
Drinking lots of gatorade.
Lots and lots of laundry.

Things I've learned in the past 36 hours:All my kids are different...even the way they throw up!
My new couch is not that comfy, but it's better than the bathroom floor.
I'm not a fan of waking up every 20 minutes, but I will for them.

Hopefully my kids can think of something more eventful when they go back to school and are asked "So, what did you do for summer vacation?"

*Revised* Cole is now sick too. The girls are back to their Barbie playing ways. Hooray! Jasmyne kicked it too. William and Sam are still miserable. I'm still praying I won't get it. :)
