After letting the manure monsters out to close any unfinished business, it appears as though Bella has adorned the floor with a path of paw prints. Subsequently, I clean up the mess and carefully allow her to make it far enough through the door for me to pick her up like a wet rag and carry her to the 'barf bath.' I call it the 'barf bath' because she proceeded to 'barf' during the 'bath.'
Following the bath I am unable to stop my dehydrated darling from drinking, so I move/spill the entire 2 gallon water contraption on the dining room, kitchen, and living room floors. I soaked up the water with every last clean towel in the house and just as I finish up, I hear what appears to be the hiccups. Hiccups? Not exactly. I find the Nile River of soupy stomach fluids running down the $650 area rug onto the carpet. At this point, I decided it would be appropriate to call for backup.
I called Bella's father to pick up Pedialyte on his way home, as we have a sick baby (pathetic, I know). The typical father that he is, showed up after the chaos was calmed down and cleaned up and says, "She looks fine. I don't understand why you are freaking out?" I'm sure he'll be more understanding next time after he is in need of a towel after showering tomorrow morning.
