One of my depositing customers told me yesterday that his wife has the same thing Stef has and their doctor told them it's THE flu - as in the one we all got shots for last fall. He says the shot is really only effective for 3 months, then it's sort of no good after that. I personally just think we got a shot for a slightly different strain than what is going around now.
Anyway, MIL sort of confirmed that today. Her other job is at a nursing home and one of her coworkers had this stomach bug, also told by her doctor that it's THE flu. She said it was so bad that her hair hurt. That totally fits with how Stef has been acting - like it hurts to be touched, sometimes it hurts to just BE. Poor poor baby.
No more puking so far. She complained that her belly hurt a lot last night. One explosive/toxic diaper later and she was much better. She ate a little piece of banana last night then asked to go for a nap. Today, she ate a cracker and about 1/3 of a banana before I left her at my mom's. She called me later (Stef did) to tell me she's feeling good. I think we're finally over the hump with this (knock wood). The diahrea is supposed to last for about a week, so I'm not sure if she can go back to swimming school Monday or not.
If anybody has any ideas about games the kids could play at Stef's birthday party, that tie in with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, please share! So far, I only have Pin the tail on Mickey (yawn) and some sort of treasure hunt that loosely follows the episode where they were looking for colors to refill the rainbow machine. Red ball, orange whistle, yellow flower, green ducky, blue bow, and purple plum. I'm still not quite sure how to run the game. All the kids are around 3 yrs old except Michael who is 7. HELP!!

Maybe a MM craft of some kind. Is Rebecca invited??? We want to come!!!
I hope Stef is feeling better!
Games:
Freeze Dance (you know play the music, have them dance and stop when the music stops)
Pass the Mickey - again when the music stops so does Mickey.
Maybe instead of pin the tail on the donkey - you can do a put the ears on Mickey...
I like the craft idea
How about a form of duck duck goose where it's like daffy daffy mickey instead? :)
A pinyata ? or whatever is spelled, mickey mouse one or something I dunno, we don't play any games period at her parties lol so I guess I'm NO help at all, good luck :)
