We were so excited to go together as a family to Nikell's first dance convention and competition. I went out early with Presly since she had a casting in San Francisco earlier that day and Toby brought Brooklyn and Nikell out when he got off of work. We spent the first night swimming and then eating dinner at a fancy restaurant in the hotel. We were looking forward to a very long day of dance classes for Both Brookyn and Nikell the next day. Unfortunately things changed drastically in the middle of the night. At about 1:00 in the morning I heard someone throwing up all over the bathroom floor. I ran in to see Brooklyn sitting on the toilette puking onto the floor. This poor girl was so sick! I hoped it was a one time thing but boy was I wrong. My poor bing threw up every half hour all night long. Every time I would lay back down in bed and just barely start to doze I would here her move uncomfortably and I knew it was coming again. I didn't sleep at all the whole night and then at about 6:00 in the morning I had to get myself all ready and Nikell all ready all with no sleep and Brooklyn still throwing up. At 7:15 I had to leave Brooklyn with Toby and take Nikell down to her classes. The second I got down there I of course started crying the second someone asked how my night was. I was beyond tired and so worried about my baby. I left Nikell with her team and went and got Brooklyn some ice and Gatorade and ran it back up to the room. I was so glad that she was still asleep and I was able to go back down with Nikell.
Nikell had a good day but was a little tired out from all the dancing. Brooklyn stopped throwing up at around 9:00 and was able to get some fluids in her. She must have got sick from some food she ate because no one else got sick. Nikell did an amazing job at her first competition they won high gold.
I was so happy to get home to our house and recover from the crazy and exhausting weekend!
