For Those of You Who Don’t Like Vomit . . .
You should click away right now. No really, go ahead; you really should go somewhere else. Really.
For the rest of you, I think it’s important for you to know that this child -
Yes, this adorable, innocent-looking one
- ate so much ice cream last night that when he was done he got up from his seat, said his tummy hurt, walked around the table to my seat and, upon arrival there, proceeded to throw up said ice cream. I, without pause or flinch, caught all of it in a cloth napkin and one of the plastic cup lids. Not a drop hit floor, skin or clothing (you may now applaud as I take my bow).
When he was done, Robby stated he “felt much better,” climbed up onto my lap, and asked if he could have some of my ice cream.
Nice work! Once my daughter threw up in my mother’s nice car while wearing a fancy dress. I managed to reach across the back seat (including toddler in car seat) to catch everything in a towel. I was feeling pretty proud of myself, until later my mother asked me who washed the towel, hmmmmm?
You are a vomit rock star! And boys can be incredibly NOT smart sometimes!
You are AMAZING! Supermom!

What Jenn said!
Score! Quick reflexes, Momma. I usually forget to grab a container and end up catching it in my hands instead. Score, but not quite so much.
Impressive!
The Momovomotowelenator - able to catch volumes in a single towel! That’s talent.
wow. nicely done, beth! bravo! if there were a parenting gameshow, you’d rock the barf round.
speed diapering would be my game.
my husband has an uncanny ability to predict how many wipes he will need to change a diaper (or poopy-D as he liked to call it) before he’s even checked it out. “bob, i can clean that poo in. . .2 wipes.” “okay, J, clean that poo.”
i’ve had too much coffee today. . .
You are SUCH a mom, the only kind of human who will hold still to be vomited ON so’s they don’t have to scrub the floor! Anyone else would be doing a duck and cover, not us.
You Rock!
Reminds me of the time my son projectile vomited on my face…
and I was so relieved-
because we were at my in-laws and it didn’t get on my mom-in-law’s
very, very nice carpet
ahhhh, kids
