Last night was our adventure with our crazy little two year old. Last Monday when we were still in Fairfax at my dad and Brenda's, Cohen starting running a fever. We gave him Tylenol and it lasted until we started traveling back. But I wanted to just get home so if he needed to go to the doctor, we could bring him to his own. Well by the time we were back in Houston, it was gone. So I didn't think much more of it. Yesterday, we were heading to Galveston for our nephew Max's birthday celebration at Moody Gardens and Cohen threw up in the car on the way there. He has had car sickness in the past so we just kinda figured it was that. He continued to throw up pretty much all day so we left early from there and came home. He threw up again right when we pulled up in the driveway so we decided it was time to bring him somewhere so he didn't get dehydrated. We are lucky enough that Texas Children's Hospital just opened a campus just minutes from our house, so we brought him to the ER there. Once there, it was really quick with getting in and seen. He wasn't running fever, but by this time, he had it come out both ends. So they decided to do an ultrasound to make sure there wasn't something else going on. That came back clear so they decided to admit him to run IV fluides through him to make sure he didn't become dehydration. They got us to a new room and starting the IVs. He was a trooper, although there were lots of tears trying to get everything going. He slept good all night after some motrin and woke up in a much better mood. He has not thrown up since. We were discharged about 4 this afternoon and he is back to 2 year old crazy little boy self. We praise God for healing for Cohen last night!
