Sick Baby

Maddox had ate hardly anything in the past two days. Yesterday, he didn't have anything to eat, just liquids. Today, he had half a yobaby yogurt, one spoonful of corn chex, a few cheetos, one piece of turkey off a subway sandwich, two fruit snacks (literally 2 of the snacks out of one little bag), a couple pieces of puppy chow. He finally at about 6 pieces of mixed fruit and a couple spoonfuls of ice cream. He had Aunty Amy buy him a cookie, but thats in the cupboard "for later". He turned down DQ ice cream cake twice, noodles, and several other things. Unfortunately, today he hasn't had too much to drink. Half a cup of lemonade, 1 juice box, and half a cup of green iced tea. He's gone pee twice yesterday and three times today. He finally went pee for the third time late this evening - at almost 9pm.

Saturday night, on the way home from Aunty Amy's house, he fell asleep in the car (around 7pm). He spent most of the evening waking up and crying. He laid with me on the couch and slept for awhile and then came to bed with me. He woke up coughing at 6am on Sunday morning. At first I thought nothing of it. Second cough I was a little concerned. Third cough I sat up and said "Clayton, he'd going to puke!" He didn't, he had dry heaves because he didn't have anything in him, but with the help of a cup of ginger ale and about 20 minutes time, he was puking. If he didn't have anything in his system, he had the dry heaves so I kept him pretty full with ginger ale, ginger ale & lemonade, ginger ale & green tea with honey & lemon. He felt pretty good and was actually pretty hyper, but he was throwing up from 6am-6pm. The poor kiddo even asked for his bucket when he felt like he needed to. He would always puke the first time he asked for his bucket, or within 5 minutes.

He seems to be feeling better today, but not totally. One case of diarrhea this morning and then no appetite today. Hopefully he'll be eating better tomorrow and feeling up for school on Wednesday.

Now some pics from today:

Maddox and Grandma Mary bought me a DQ Ice Cream cake for my bday (this Wed). Maddox had the guy write "Happy Birthday Mommy!"
