A pukey, pukey day/night

Our poor little birthday boy spent the day being sick.  Our tip off was that he didn't a thing for Birthday lunch at Hickory Park, seriously, chicken tenders and warm applesauce?   He took a good nap and didn't complain about it, which is also weird.  When he woke up from nap we gave him our gift.  He seemed to really like it and play with it if we played with him, otherwise he wanted cuddles.  Thank goodness he didn't eat dinner either.  He woke up every couple hours with diarhea and throw up.  The best part was when we were at the buisness center at the clinic this morning checking in.  They have a new system and they want to scan your card and ask all the questions, so there was a long line, we finally made it to the front.... and it happens, we earned a fast pass out of that line, a housekeeeping visit, our own little green bowl to carry around, and half a pack of paper towels.  Everyone was so sweet and helpful. 
So we were not so well at the well visit.  Little man grew 4 inches and gained 2 lbs over the year.  Compared to Emily at three years they both measured 31 lbs, but Dallas is 39", the height Emily was at four year checkup.   Since Dallas was down a couple lbs since the last visit and doesn't eat dinner, he got himself a trip to the laboratory to get his iron checked.  He aslo gets to visit the allergist soon.  Overall a good visit, I don't think I would have made it without Rob.  Dallas was needing to be held and comforted the entire time.  Hard to do when you still have a baby that doesn't walk.  I assume Dr's offices are not the cleanest places to crawl. 

Hoping this is a 24 hour thing.  He last puked at 1:00 pm, debating whether I should have him lick the rest of us to get it over with...
