Sickness!

Well, we've been back to work about 2.5 weeks. And the boys have not gotten their immune systems built up yet. They both have had runny noses and the sniffles. I've been giving them Zyrtec every night before bed to help. However, Zyrtec does NOT keep the stomach virus away!

Tuesday evening, RJ complained that he felt like he needed to throw up. We let him sleep in our bed just in case. He never did! Thank goodness.

On Wednesday, I was walking out of the daycare building with the boys, and Trevor decided to throw up in the hallway and continue outside on the sidewalk. YUCK! I brought them home, and once home, gave him watered down apple juice. He sucked it down! After about 5 minutes, he threw up again.

We kept him home on Thursday. Thanks to my daddy for coming and taking care of him so that Robert and I didn't have to miss a day of work.

On Friday, he went back to daycare. Friday afternoon, I picked up the boys, picked up Mom and took Mom home. I had to go back to CV for the JV football game. On the way from Mom's to CV, Trevor threw up all over himself in his car seat. So, I called my athletic director, explained what was happening, cancelled the cheerleaders from cheering, and came home with my boys. By the time Robert got home, Trevor was feeling/acting fine. We went out to eat as a family. Towards the end of our dinner, Trevor decided to throw up again.

We went straight to the Urgent Care Center. There we discovered that Trevor has a stomach virus. There is nothing we can do for it. We can keep him away from dairy and let the virus run its course. It should take about 5-7 days.

Poor Baby has been sleeping all morning today. You know he doesn't feel good!
