Nicholas has a stomach bug
Nicholas has had a stomach bug since early Tuesday morning. [if you are eating or easily grossed out, please stop reading now :) ] David went to get him when he woke up in the morning, and he was covered with gross stuff. David couldn't tell if Nico had thrown up or had diarrhea that leaked because it was all in his lap and down his legs; he later determined that the answer was "both". Nico took two baths - one to wash everything off and the next to get clean. While getting Sarah ready for school, Nico threw up in his high chair and a few more times on the kitchen floor. Thankfully, all these were clear, and David had put a few bibs on him to catch most of it. A few hit the floor though and Nico even got his shoes. After Sarah was dropped off, Nico threw up in the car seat on the way home and then again a few more times at home. David took him to the doctor's and was told to just let it run its course and give only sips of Pedialyte. By Wednesday, Nico was only having diarrhea, although he was also having a high fever. Last night and this morning, he's been very tired and quiet and not moving around at all. David's been staying home watching him. Oh, and Sarah is home today with a runny nose and cough; we're really hoping it doesn't turn into what Nicholas has!
