We want our baby back

Remember those commercials? I want my baby back, baby back, baby back....hahaha  but not what I'm talking about...

I want my baby back...

You know, the one that giggles and crawls and chatters? The one with the cutest smile and the twinkly eyes? The one that usually looks like this:

He's been sick since last Tuesday...something called an enterovirus according to the dr. Pretty much a stomach bug on steroids. Saddest thing ever.

Oh and now his brother has it. double yuck. (although he doesn't want to eat so we haven't had any...uh...explosions. so far.)  You know how he got it? He was doing just fine until I caught him sneaking swigs of Gray's pedialite. Fast forward 24 hours..."mooooooom, my tummy hurts." ugh. So it goes with children and sickness. (and three-year-old sneakiness)

We'll be holed up for the remainder of the week (which is super fun since you'll see today is sunday.) Its going to be a long one. And we've already burned through the DVR's Bob the Builder selection...

didn't have to go back, did have to call the nurse when Des' fever spiked to 104.5 ...but some ibuprofen and a lukewarm bath did the trick.

Looks like Gray is on the rebound, he's eating 4 oz of formula at once now, still not eating solids. But he's talking and sitting up and generally happier.

Des is plugged in to as many cartoons as he can take. He's soooooooooooo grumpy its ridiculous. Hopefully he'll feel better faster than Gray.
