On the mend...

The past few days in our house have been anything but dull. Unfortunately, I can't say it's because of anything exciting, but rather it's been pretty low key as Graham was hit with a pretty nasty stomach flu. Other than a routine cold a few months back, Graham hasn't been sick since he's come home....he was saving that for when his Daddy was on a business trip! Thursday morning Graham woke up with the flu and since then, it's been a real challenge for him to keep anything in that little stomach of his. We actually ended up visiting the doctor on Friday who assured me it was nothing more than the flu and it just needed to run it's course. Graham was pretty miserable and wouldn't think about doing anything other than being held. He didn't let me put him down for a second. Even after his meals came up, he insisted that he be in my arms. I'm sure it must have been comical to watch me cleaning up after a sick baby, trying to calm a sick baby, and trying to get Annie out of the way-all at the same time. After all, for those of you that know Annie, you know how much "excitement" she adds to nearly any situation! Let's just say that Jeff was welcomed home with open arms! Today is the first day that Graham is acting even close to his normal self. He was pretty lethargic yesterday but appears to be on the mend. He's back in his walker, finally willing to explore rather than being in my arms, chasing Annie around the kitchen and throwing Cheerios at her. Hopefully his lunch stays down, and things will be back to normal soon!

First smile since Wednesday night!
