Yuck

[Greg in Maryland]

I had to pick my wife up in Washington DC tonight -- there was a major train derailment and she was going to be stranded for quite a while. So, I pack my 21 month old son into the minivan and head to DC. She is the cutie on the left and he is the cutie on the right.

Five minutes from meeting my wife, my son projectile vomits his vittles all over himself, his booster seat, the car seat and the door. @#$@#$!

Very fortunately, we had a change of clothes and nearly a lifetime supply of wipes in the van so were were able to clean him up and the booster/car seat as well. So much for going out to dinner tonight.

I think that either the jostling of city driving upset his tummy or he stuck his fingers down his throat to see what would happen.

Guess what I get to do tomorrow? Clean the inside of the car.

Oh well, such is life.

Ps this is only the 2nd time this has ever happened, so I should just shut up and take it like a man, but I can't help myself.

There was the time I picked up my mum and dad from the airport after flying in from England and my daughter( who was around two at the time and sitting in the car seat between them) promptly welcomed them in her own way. I know your pain.

Cleaning the car is a small price to pay for a lovely family.

Had to teach my kid early on what happens when you swallow your chew... or else he'd a had to keep ridin' in the back of the truck...

[RAFlorida]

You have a lovely family there Greg.

And he looks like a lively tyke too! Know your pain for the clean up; had 3 daughters many years back, and each one of them had the motion sickness at one time or other. The ex got sick herself one time while cleaning up and guess who did it from then on...

[gjat]

What a happy looking family. You are blessed.

Sorry, but ya just gotta man-up now. You'll be cleaning puke for years to come.... It's inevitable, like taxes.
We learned at an early age to keep plastic shopping bags in the vehicles for the little'uns. (as well as plenty of wipes). I don't remember having the extra clothes, so you got one up on me.

When the kids were little it was a life saver, or at least a sanity saver.

Whatever you do, don't use the shop wet/dry vac to suck thing up, the shop will stink of it each time you use the vac.
