Tummy Bugs are No Fun!

Riley had his first tummy bug since he's been at Sloan last night and today, and it's been no fun! His teacher Ashley (who is our new babysitter outside of family and Talana) brought him and her daughter Aubree home from school yesterday so Kelly and I could go to a Birthday Happy Hour for my friends from work. When we got home, Ashley said he didn't really want to eat dinner and said he was all done with the bubble bath before she even got him washed which is NEVER the case! We usually have to let all the water and bubbles out for him to get out. All the while, Riley's saying 'Bye Bye Bubbles'. 

This morning they had predicted another layer of snow and ice. I got up to check, and once I saw it was there went back to bed! Since my commute was going to be one room to another in my jammies, I could sleep another hour or so! 


Anyway, every morning the routine when Riley wakes up or it's time for him to get up - I go get him out of his crib and bring him into our room to wake Daddy up. This morning he was immediately asking for his milk - milk peezzz Mommy! I brought him a cup up, and he immediately drank every drop of it! We just thought WOW! He's thirsty! Then just as I said, he's probably hungry since he didn't eat last night - PROJECTILE right back at me! Yuck!! He did it 4 more times before the upchuck Olympics was over! And since he only wants Mommy when he's sick - that meant I got to wear it all 4 times! Then when I went back into his room later in the morning I saw that he had actually been throwing up at night, but he didn't even cry or anything so we didn't know! :( He hasn't been ill since before lunch, but Riley's still not back to himself! Poor Baby! The only silver lining when he's ill is that he loves his Mommy even more and is all about snuggle time! Bless his little heart though! He slept all afternoon, got up 2 hours then went right back to bed. I hope he wakes up feeling better and ready to eat us out of house and home tomorrow! I miss my rambunctious little man! Today was the most he's every fallen asleep in my arms or in my lap since he was an itty bitty baby!
