Sick Luke

Yesterday, Luke was out of sorts after he got up from his nap, which only lasted an hour instead of the 2 he usually takes. So I just chalked it up to being tired. His buddy Colton came over to play, which usually helps, but he was very clingy. I put some Blues Clues on, which he LOVES to se if that would relax him. He sat on my lap and that is when I noticed that his head was hot. Uh-OH. I get the thermometer (the ear type) adn hold down a screaming Luke to take his temp. 101.6. OK Tylenol and call ped. Friends go home. Luke stretches out on couch and watches Blue. Refuses water. I get up to go to the bathroom. Luke follows, whining. I pick him up. Barf, all over mom and puppy. Luke start crying. Magically get my shirt off without getting barf all over my hair. Put Luke in tub. Get everyone clean. Call Doc back. "Well there is a stomach bug going around with a fever." Super. Luke is much happier after barfing and eats 2 slices of toast for dinner with some water. Goes to bed without barfing but still has fever. Doesn't wake up at all during the night. Hopefully, today he will be fine. Winter sucks.

I hope you get the version my kids had at Christmas... which I call "the one meal stomach bug". It was much better than the other stuff I have been hearing about lately.
