Jake, who rarely sits still for more than a minute, hardly let us put him down. He beat his record of watching like 20 minutes of TV at a time by a long shot. I don't think we really even put him down yesterday. The poor little guy definitely got it the worst! And let me tell you, cleaning up puke when you're sick is the absolute worst. And he got it in some hard to clean places. We finally got the smell up out of the carpet and couch. It smells a little like vinegar, but at least it's not vomit. So gross!
Andrew braved the grocery store Saturday morning for some Gatorade, applesauce, and a loaf of bread for toast. And that's about all we've consumed since. Poor Jake wasn't able to keep ANY food down from Thursday dinner until today. We have been giving him really small amounts of applesauce every hour or two and as much liquid as he will take in an attempt to not let him get dehydrated. It didn't work perfect, but at least we didn't have to take him to the hospital. And this afternoon he held down some toast, pudding, and a few bites of bagel. We're definitely on the 'up' side of things.
Being sick is the worst! I HATE having the flu. And I am not convinced at all that the flu shot is helpful! I've had 3 flu shots in the last 10 or 12 years, and those are the exact same 3 years that I've had the flu. Andrew and Jake both had their flu shots this year as well. I know it's just a coincidence, but I feel like the flu shot is a curse for our little family!
At least we had a relaxing few days together watching movies and snuggling with our little sweetie. And there's nothing that says "romance" like sleeping with a pot between you!
oh no!! This is awful but that pot picture is hilarious. Miss seeing you guys and hope you all get to feeling better soon!
