PUKE-A-PA-LOOOOO-ZA

Funny is everywhere.  That can't be helped....although it does help when you have a little bit of a twisted sense of humor.

So, last night we were all hanging out....which is pretty much what we do.  I made Noah laugh...and he laughed....really, really hard.  Then he started coughing....really, really hard.  Then he started vomiting....really, really huge amounts.

At first we were all stunned.  Felix just stood there and stared.  Savannah just stood there and stared.  I just stood there and stared.  After about the third or fourth major heave, I finally realized what was happening and ran to get some towels.  I was just throwing them at him, trying to capture a little bit of the massive amounts of fluid coming out of his body.

Then Savannah realized what was happening....her reaction was a tad bit different from mine.  She ran out of the room screaming that now she was going to throw up....and then she started dry heaving.  Neat-o.

Felix still stood there.  I finally yelled at him to go and get a bowl to catch some of the....whatever it was.  Just as he jumped into action, Noah stopped throwing up.

So Felix started to try and help.....from a distance.  "Noah, take your shirt off."  "Noah, don't do that....you're just making it get everywhere."  "Noah....Noah....Noah....Noah."  Poor Noah.

We finally decided there was no hope for the T-shirt or the towels so we sent Savannah to go and get a garbage bag.  About that time, the dog decided that it wanted a snack....a vomit snack.  So I start yelling at the dog to get out of the room, then Savannah comes back, freaks out about the dog trying to eat the puke and starts dry heaving again.

We (meaning I) (okay, mostly Noah with severe words of encouragement to stop get puke all over the floor), get Noah's shirt and the towels that so selflessly sacrificed themselves for the greater good, into the garbage bags when Caleb decides to run into the room to see what's happening.

"Hey, what's going on in here?"  Then he starts dry heaving.  Then he runs out of the room screaming, "I almost threw up because I saw Noah's nipples."

Lessons Learned
1.  Try as you might....you can't keep your six year old from talking.
2.  Noah is not allowed to eat Totino's pizza rolls EVER AGAIN!
3.  Carpet cleaner with Oxy Clean in it actually works.
4.  Noah was totally fine, he just laughed until he threw up.
5.  Sometimes, vomit is just funny.

Sometimes vomit IS funny, especially if you don't have to clean it up!
