Brady was sick again, poor little man

Yesterday morning when the boys got up, I went to go get them out of their cribs. Brady was crying, but I didn't think much of it. I went in to get them up and noticed something in Brady's crib. At first I thought it was blood. I quickly discovered he had gotten sick. I brought them downstairs and changed Brady out of his PJs and fed them breakfast. Brady didn't eat a whole lot, which turned out to be a good thing. He was definitely sick. Shawn and I had talked about whether or not we should go bowling that night. We decided that we would wait and see how Brady was later in the day. He had gotten sick a few times during the morning, but then seemed pretty good after that. Shawn had given him a fairly big lunch which Brady did eat, so we thought maybe he was feeling better. He went down for his afternoon nap without any problems. Shortly after he got up though we was back to being sick, however this time even worse than the morning. Probably because he had a lot more in his tummy than he did that morning. Aunt Barb was scheduled to watch the boys last night, so if we were to cancel we would have had to let her know rather quickly. Unfortunately, she had already left home to come here when I called for her. I had already talked to her earlier in the day to let her know that Brady was sick. Shawn and I decided that we would go bowling. I checked in when we were done to see how the little man was doing. Barb had just put him down to bed and he was fine that night. He didn't get sick any more after we had left. We stayed long enough to eat our free pizza we won and came home shortly after that which turned out to be a good thing, because Brady woke up within an hour of us being home and just wanted to be held in order to sleep.

This morning I could tell that Brady was not feeling better, but probably worse. He woke up pretty early, so I gave him something to drink and brought him back to bed with us. He slept there for a couple hours until Isaac woke up. I then brought both boys downstairs. I gave Brady some toast to eat while Isaac had a bowl of cereal. We then all went downstairs to the family room to watch some TV. Brady was running a low grade temperature and just didn't want to do anything. He laid on the couch with me until about Noon. Then I brought him back up to his crib, where he slept until about 2:30 pm. Even after he had gotten up, he continued to lay on the couch and sleep on and off until about 5 pm. It wasn't until about 5:45 pm or so that he finally got off of the couch and played a little bit. At least he didn't get sick anymore today and was able to eat a little. Hopefully tomorrow he will be back to normal.
