Day 1 of Utah Trip

Off to Utah! Hooray! Let's just say I was soooo excited to be going! It had been a year and 5 months since I was last there, and I was itching to get back to my mountains! Kourtney decided we would stay the night in Cincy the night before our departure due to an early flight, so I kissed my man and waved goodbye! We brought along some handy-dandy DVD players, which were used right off the bat. Below is Zach, fast asleep with his headphones on!
Once we arrived in Cincy, we did a little shopping at Gap Outlet and then headed to the hotel for a little late night swimming. If we had only known what the night was going to have in store for us.......
Timeline:
1:30am I finally fall asleep. Zach was cuddled next to me, Kourtney and Kris were in the other bed, and Kennedy was asleep on the hide-a-bed.
2:16am Kennedy wakes up to tell Kourtney she doesn't feel well and ends up puking all over Kourtney's shirt.
2:30am I fall back asleep
2:45am More puking, this time, on the beloved blue blankie.
3:00am Kris decides he is going to wash blue blankie in the bathroom sink and dry it on the air conditioner/heater.
3:30am More puking/crying for blue blankie (which at this point is still soaking wet!)
4:00am Kourtney goes in search of clear liquids
4:30am More puking/crying for blue blankie (which isn't drying very fast)
4:45am I doze off finally...
5:00am Kourtney is a great mom and goes in search of dryer to speed up the blue blankie drying process. Success is found at the Country Inn's and Suites!
5:30am More puking/relief at the sight of clean blue blankie
5:45am Sleep. oh Precious sleep.
7:00am Time to get up/get the kids ready/pack the suitcases/load the van/grab puke buckets/go to the airport, etc....
I guess I could summarize by saying this was the longest night in the history of the world. What a way to start the trip! We should have been smart and taken this as a bad omen....
