yesterday was a beautiful day. the sun was shining, the wind was calm. we walked to the park and enjoyed the 60 degrees. we came home and enjoyed lunch and naps. we had cousins over to play and and all the kids played super good together and played outside almost the entire afternoon. Rose woke up and wanted to join the fun so I put her out in the garden with a shovel. I checked on her throughout the next hour and she was just a happy little thing in the garden so I let her be. When she finally came in I had to rinse the dirt off of her and refill the dogs water because that had been her last stop. This is where the beautiful day ended… She threw up on the carpet. It was brown dirty throw up. I don’t know how much dirt she ate but she threw up a lot. I know my kids eat dirt but I think she was shoveling it in. She threw up 2 more times before Ben got home and then he was blessed to witness 2 more throw ups that night. It didn’t seem like sick throw up, it was definitely eating to much dirt and washing it down with the dogs water throw up – My Poor Little Girl! and then to top it all off we woke up to a crib full of the nasty stuff this morning! Good news is – that was the last of it. No more barfs today!

PS – i will be escorting her to the sandbox/garden on her next few outings and I will be a stopper of the dirt eating. One hour of 1 year old fun was not worth the hours of throw up clean up!
