The day that Ellie was at her worst (which we now know was her cold turning into ear infection), I woke up with a crazy weird stomach bug (and no, I am not pregnant). I woke up a few times in the night feeling kind of sick, but was able to fall back asleep, and the next morning after nursing Ellie I had to make a beeline for the toilet. Poor girl was SO confused, and did not like the very loud heaving noise that I was producing. She, of course, started crying. But through her tears, she stayed right by me. In between heaves I was attempting to turn around to console her a bit...it was a total comedy of errors.
Brad was in the shower while most of this was going on, but unbeknownst to me he snapped this photo. Like the post title says - total TMI. However, I continue to go back and look at this picture because in it, this little girl's love and care feels so apparent to me. And as weird as it is, I'm really glad Brad snapped this.
(Thankfully my weird stomach thing only lasted about 24-36 hours, and that morning was the only time I threw up. PHEW.)
