The 3 day hospital stay

Just a quick recap in case you do not know, Cale has come down with a very nasty stomach virus and was unable to hold liquids in his body, hence MANY diaper changes :( He became dehydrated was rushed to the ER by aid car was admitted the same day, we are on Day 3 and Cale is showing improvement!!!! YEAH ..Not 100% quite yet, but I am serious when I say this lil guy is a trooper! With all the needle pokes, tests, checks, etc he is doing so good. He has a couple really good hours each day before he gets very uncomfortable with stomach cramps,diarrhea, and body aches. :( I had to post some of the moments where Cale was happy as can be! You would never know he is even sick! UPDATE: All tests came back great for today, so we get to go home!
This was Cale wondering where the heck he was, also his eyes got puffy from all the fluids they gave him through the IV.
Nothing better than Brother coming to visit and reading me a book!
I was holding on tight to daddy's thumb
Happy as can be!! There was not a nurse in the place that did not fall in love with that smile!
Check out my tiny little gown and my red socks the nurses put on me.
I was a happy camper most of the time, but then I would feel very sick and was wiped out!

Thanks to everyone who sent thoughts and prayers our way for Cale! He is doing well at home defiantly still not 100% but a ton better than he was!! :)
