How bout try... ice cream?

What's worse then a giraffe with a sore throat? An elephant with a bloody nose!
-David Clark

One of David Clark's famous silly jokes, what does this have to do with anything? David Got the nasty stomach flew that's going around. Starting at 11pm he threw up all night long! Every half hour he would sit up, fuss a little, and I would grab the bowl. That lasted till about 10am! He stayed in bed till 11 or so, then moved to the couch where he stayed for the rest of the day! About 4:30 he got up and moved around a little.

He kept asking for water... but couldn't keep it down. It was so sad. Then when he started feeling a little better he kept saying, "how bout try...ice cream?" "just a little bit" He finally stopping throwing up at 5 or so. Never did have any solids.

I knew he was on the mend this morning when he wouldn't stop trying to upset Brody! Sick babys are hard, but they are nice and mellow... Sometimes a sick day is good, except for all the laundry!

Ice cream is the solution for all the woes in home too! Something about the sweet goodness! So sorry you got that bug in your family. We too have had it, and it's not a fun one. Hopefully it is gone now and the rest of your family can stay well.

So sad! Poor little guy, what a trooper! And you too! It is nice when they're mellow though.
Ice cream is the greatest! Good taste David!
