poor little guy

This poor little guy had a rough couple weeks! He got some kind of stomach virus and couldn't keep anything down, after a couple days I took him to the doctor and a blood test came back with unexpected results, requiring us to take him to the hospital for an IV.

Its really heart-breaking to see your baby in the hospital with a tube in his arm - I can't imagine what some parents must have to go through with much more difficult circumstances.

He did great while we were there (still vomiting, but didn't make a big fuss about having to stay in a little room) and we were able to take him home that night to sleep in his own bed (much better for all of us!). He continued to vomit for another 4-5 days, and it took even longer for him to really get back to being himself again. As a result of his little traumatic experience he refuses to go to nursery at church or even be left at the kids club at the gym. He has total separation issues! Can't say I really blame him...but its sure making getting back to our routine more difficult!

After leaving the hospital with B., we went to pick up his big brother at Grandma and Grandpapa's house. And what would make my day more complete? But to have big brother start throwing up not minutes after walking through the door! He threw up 4-5 times through that evening & night, but bounced right back and didn't have nearly the same situation as little bro, thank goodness! 'Cause I got sick shortly after that too!

So glad to have this all behind us now!!!
