When it Rains it Pours (Vomit)

 So March wasn't too awesome in the health Category!  It started in Vegas (that post is coming) when Isaac started Puking our last day there and caused us to extend our stay for a day until he could hold something down.  While we were there Owen got sick and had to have breathing treatments by the time we got back because his cough was so bad and he was wheezing...:( 

Here is a pic of him getting his first breathing treatment at the doctor's office.

 
Isaac was not well and would fall asleep on the floor mid morning...this only happens when I have ill children.
 
and then Kevin and Adam got sick.  Of course Kevin, like his father, was only sick 1 day and threw up only once.  Adam, like his mother, starting throwing up and just would not stop.  He threw up the better part of 3 days before I decided he was probably dehydrated (since he wasn't holding anything down).  I was right and they decided it would be best to give him an IV to get him better fast.  So he was really brave and barely cried at all while they were putting in the IV and said the sweetest thing ever about his cousin who was in the NICU at the time and had been there 8 days.  He had seen pics of her there.  He said, "I am pretty brave, Mom, but not as brave as Maddie, she is much braver than me."  It was so sweet.  He then said to take a picture of him so he could show Kevin how brave he was...here is the picture of my brave little Adam.

Then the sweetest thing ever for him...The primary from church sent home this card with Kevin for him.  He was grinning from ear to ear everytime he saw it.  He absolutely loved it and it was so sweet of his teacher, Carrie Serreno, to think of him. All the kids signed it and left him a little note.  (of course I cried, I'm tearing up right now)



Of course at the end Bryan and I both got sick but there is no time for sick parents so we had a weekend to get over ourselves and get on with it.  Luckily April has been illness free!!
