I'm a big boy...I'm 7.....

months old today!!! It was also Grayson's first day to be sick and have a fever. I thought something was up last night when he threw up (what seemed like his entire bottle) all over me and the brand new sheets on our bed! Yuck!! He slept all night and I even had to go wake him up before we left for Mrs. Khan's. When we got there I told her I thought he felt warm but I had taken his temp before I left and didn't get a high number. Turns out I have not been doing it right. She ended up calling me as I was almost to work. He had a fever of 100.3 and he had vomited all over her carpet. I immediately turned around. We made an appointment for 9am at the doctor and it turns out my little sweetie had a stomach virus. Our orders were to give him small amounts of flavored Pedialyte for the next 4 hours and then mix 1/2 formula with 1/2 regular unflavored Pediatlyte for the following 4 hours. If he kept everything down we could go back to just formula. So far he has kept everything down. I think he is feeling a little better. We stopped at Target this morning to buy the Pedialyte and I purchased a few other things. I got him some new pacificiers that are for 6M +. He seems to love it!! He has been sucking on that thing all day so far! See....


He's such a happy baby! "You can't even tell I'm sick, can you??"



But the picture taking got old fast!! Poor baby!!!


I pray that he feels better soon!!!
