Poor little Lydia caught a stomach bug over the weekend! It only lasted about 12 hours, but those 12 hours were not fun! She woke up early Sunday morning and threw up... and proceeded to do so again about every 30 minutes or so for a couple of hours. Her tummy was completely empty, but that didn't stop the yucks from coming anyway. She never cried, but was sad and just wanted to snuggle and be loved on, which we were happy to do for her! She fell asleep for about an hour on our bed that morning, and later had another good 3 hour nap in her bed. In between, we read books and watched a lot of videos. It was a video marathon day...she was so lethargic and didn't want to play. The videos helped her rest, which was good, and we just stayed close to her and loved on her all day. Thankfully, by Sunday evening following her good nap, she was able to keep small doses of Pedialyte down, and her energy went WAY up! She was back to her old self with no more yucks! The next day, she was tired and her appetite was low, but otherwise she was better. There's nothing sadder than when your little one is sick and feels bad, is there?
Watching a video.
A hint of a smile...And what do you think happened next? Mommy caught it! Yes, it hit Tuesday and I felt LOUSY. Grammy had Lydia at her house on Monday, and by Wednesday...it hit her too. So sad! But everyone is better now, and Daddy managed to avoid it altogether. We'll take some HAPPY face pictures soon, since these are sad little pics today! Speaking of pictures, Lydia had her very first school picture day this week. We haven't received the proofs yet... We're not holding our breaths that she actually posed and smiled. We'll see!

Poor girl. Gracie has never had that (I know I should be knocking on wood). Those little virus bugs are everywhere. Glad you guys are better. I've been sick, sick too. No fun!
Poor baby, such sad pictures! I'm glad everyone is on the mend.
