First of all, I have to say...he's all better! But, if anyone had told me a year ago when I started this blog to share our families stories, that I would have TWO entries about kids in the hospital, I would not have believed it! Our life sure has been full of many adventures in the past year! Carson came down with a "stomach bug" last Sunday. He was pretty sick and had a high fever for a few days. His symptoms subsided, but he remained exhausted and uninterested in eating and drinking. So, we went to the doctor this morning and they confirmed that he was dehydrated and had lost a couple of pounds. So, they send us over to Children's Hospital Orange County. He got some IV fluids and some medicines for nausea and stomach cramps. He was such a great boy and sat calmly while they took care of him. It worked!!! He came home and was a new kid. He wanted to "play cars" again (anyone who knows him would know that he was really sick when he didn't even want to play with Lightning McQueen) He ate more for dinner than he had in the entire week! We are so blessed that our family is happy and healthy!Friday, April 10, 2009

So glad he is doing better and was able to enjoy his Easter. He and his Uncle Ryan sure shared some nasty bug. Looking forward to our next visit - minus the sick after effects :)
