Sick House
The week started out well with a nice play date with my friend Joanna and her two daughters. Ian did pretty well, sleeping and eating the whole time. We headed home as he was getting fussy. Tuesday my Mom came over to watch Ian while Shaun and I ran some errands including getting a cargo topper for the Rav so we have more room for the trips to the cabin and our upcoming trip to Minnesota and Iowa. I was also able to meet some friends for dinner on Tuesday and had sushi for the first time since last May!!!
Wednesday started well, Shaun and I had an appointment about life insurance, so Mom watched Ian again. When we got home the rest of our week was set… Ian vomited. we checked his temperature and it was fine. So we called the doctor and they again said watch him… it was probably our formula switch.
Thursday he did pretty well for most of the day, but vomited again that evening. Then around 2 am, I started to get sick. Shaun took Ian downstairs and of course, then Ian started to get sick. Shaun was up most of the night caring for Ian while I was upstairs being sick.
This was one of the hardest times as a Mom since I knew Ian was not doing well and I couldn’t help since I was so sick myself. Shaun took Ian to the doctor on Friday morning. They agreed he had a stomach virus and recommended feeding him 1 an hour switching between formula and pedilite to keep him hydrated. We called in reinforcements, my Mom, so Shaun could get some sleep and help. It was hard for them to have Ian eat slowly, but he did well and I was feeling better Friday evening and was able to help. We took shifts over night, but Ian did sleep from 8 until 2.
Saturday was a little better, Ian seemed more awake, but still did vomit twice which may be due to us overfeeding him. He didn’t sleep as well last night and I hope he sleeps more today. Also I hope no more vomit! We head back to the doctor tomorrow for his 2 month visit, crazy how fast it goes. He will be getting at least 4 shots tomorrow!
We didn’t get many pictures this week, but here is one with Stanley, Ian and I hanging out…
My kids
There are a number of deer who live in our neighborhood. I have seen up to 7 at one time crossing the street… no chicken joke here 
This week a few have been spending time in the ditch and yards right around us. Here are some pictures of them checking out Stanley and Stanley checking them out…
Want to play with me?
Do you want to join me on this side of the fence?
Hope you have a good week. I will try to take some 2 month photos today and tomorrow to post as well!
