Poor guy. I think the past 18 hours most certainly qualify as the worst of Everett's short little 2-year-old life. He picked up a nasty stomach bug from church, one of the birthday parties we went to this weekend, or from who knows where. But, it made it's entrance at about 2AM and didn't let up until about 8AM this morning. The really odd thing is, Reese and I have ~ 6 years of cumulative parenting and this was our first experience with any vomiting. Can you believe it we've made it this long with no vomit episodes in our house? Anderson still doesn't even "know" what it means when I would tell him today that Everett was "getting sick" and "throwing up" all night. He's never even seen it happen.
Anyway, poor Everett. It was heartbreaking as anyone who has ever had any sort of stomach virus can imagine once you put that on a helpless toddler. :( And, of course, he just hasn't been the spunky, mischievous little bro we know around here. He's basically looked like this all day long, if he hasn't been sleeping.
(Pardon the circa-1990 sheet draped over the reclining chair that Everett chose to perch in for the day.)
Awww. :( No fun. Hope he feels better soon, you get some rest tonight, and Anderson keeps up his ignorance of all things vomit-related. Hugs.
