What's so funny?

There are a lot of bodily functions that amuse little people.  The latest in the Babe's line of amusement is talking about puking.  Thankfully, she's not one who does it often.  She didn't spit-up much as a baby, and as she's gotten older its a very rare occurrence.  Unfortunately we had a recent episode, so its fresh in her mind.  And somehow when she does it, it either happens in our bed or in the car. 

We drove to Florida in December to visit her grandparents.  We have a new vehicle, and this was definitely the most its been driven since we got it.  After many asthma attacks and at least one allergy issue during the course of our visit, we were ready to head home.  Two hours into the three-day ride home, I looked back and she had a funny look on her face.  Next thing you know, she was projectile vomiting.  My husband wasn't upset that it was happening in the brand new car (points to him), and thankfully we didn't have an accident as he pulled over from the far left lane of an interstate to the right shoulder, going from 75+ mph to zero in about a minute.  Once she was done, she was fine.  We don't know what triggered it.  I'm sure you can imagine the loveliness of a car ride after that has happened, but she didn't have much in her stomach, so it was odorless (sorry if TMI).  Anyhow, we made it to a rest stop, cleaned her up in the bathroom, and were able to continue on our ride.  Now she thinks its hilarious to talk about puking.  Don't know why since we weren't laughing, but I'm sure she'll have another subject to laugh about soon.
