This was Drew the other morning. It is one thing after another in our house. I swear, we can never win. I really can't wait for things to get back to "normal", if it ever will. Drew has been sick since Saturday and Monday I took him to the doctor expecting him to have Strep because of the white bumps in his mouth on his throat but his sore throat turned into mouth sores. Poor little guy. The doctor said that I caught it early and the worst is yet to come. Oh great is all I was thinking. These sores are very painful...they burn. We are lucky they didn't spread further in his mouth but stayed in the back on his throat. The bad thing, it hurts to swallow. So starting Sunday night and until Tuesday afternoon, Drew wouldn't eat anything. We tried everything from jello to yogurt. We finally got him to eat ice cream yesterday but that was after Ryan forced it into his mouth. After a few tears, Drew realized he wanted more. I think this virus peaked out yesterday morning with vomiting and diarrhea. Ya, it was a fun day yesterday but I think the worst is behind us. I got Drew to take 2 good naps yesterday and he slept 10 hours straight last night without waking up, a first in a while, and he is now back asleep for his first nap this morning. He is acting much happier and eating a little bit more. I really have missed my happy little boy and hope we get him back soon!
And Motrin has been my best friend this week!
