On Monday morning when my son and I woke up, I noticed that he had been sick. Since then we have enjoyed lots of vomit, terribly messy diapers, sleepless nights, and a cranky baby. My wife and I each had to spend a day home from work too.
He hasn't been able to keep much in the way of food down. He's been sucking down ice cubes, electrolyte drink, and eating a bit of apple sauce and bananas. I'd bet that he's looking forward to the point that he can eat real food again.
We took the baby to the doctor, and she said that he has a stomach virus that has been going around. (It is called the rotavirus.) Apparently we have another week-or-so left of this fun. (Although the vomiting is supposed to subside.)
Kenny is doing his best. He tried to eat a couple of mommy's french fries this evening.
What was really cute was watching the baby dip his french fries into ketchup. We have never seen him do that before.
