Things I've learnt about handling kids vomitting
#1 Always face them outwards - hugging them affectionately will result in pain for you and them
#2 Don't try and catch it to save the carpet
#3 A bucket is your best friend
#4 Teach them the value of 'running' for the toilet early
I'm sure there are many more lessons to learn.......or that you have learnt?

I wouldn't know Dave, Michael always cleaned up after the vomit monster visited our place, sorry:)

Elizabeth, sounds like you are the same as the lady across the street who is a sympathetic vomittee and therefore deals with none of it. That is all upto the husband. But the flip side was he didn't change any nappies!!
i know of one family that gives 50c for every vomit in the bucket
and $1 for every vomit direct in the toilet

I can't believe I hadn't thought of bribery and spew in the same sentence before! But now that I have my life is transformed for the better...Thanks Russ
Dave - the younger they are, the more force they exhibit - this leads to the Young Person's Vomiting LAW:
Vomiting distance is inversely proportional to their age
Nice law, thanks Matt.
Will to have to keep it mind to be tested as the girls get older!
