Ewwww!

I had a doctor's appointment today with the MDA clinic at Carle Spine Institute. I got Zachary out of the car, walked him onto the sidewalk and go to Katie's side to get her out and right then Zachary throws up on the sidewalk. Katie said "Ewwww - gross!" as only an almost 3 year old can - although I had to second the motion! I put both kids back in the car and called from the cell phone to reschedule.....times like this are when I love my cell phone. Then being the ever-overpacked mother that I am, got a bottle of water out of my diaper bag and hosed off the sidewalk, located a bucket in the car and asked Zach to use it if he felt the urge. I have to say I am so amazed with the matter of fact way that I handled it - I would have freaked out 6 years ago over something like that! It really felt like something from "One Fine Day" where Michelle Pfeiffer has the mom-bag with literally everything in it - too bad I don't have her body or looks! To feel organized for once though was a great feeling - and it may be the only time in my life that I get to feel that way! LOL! As far as Zachary, he's feeling much better now. He ate raisins at school and they always seem to upset his stomach - I guess he's got some form of intolerance to them although he handles grapes just fine. He's back up and running around and eating - so all is well...............although I'm still slightly grossed out.
