Beauchene is sick, the poor baby

The last week of February, Beauchene had a bad cold and cough. At the beginning of March, he started getting better. Then on Wednesday the 5th, he started in on the stomach flu. He threw up every hour Tuesday night to Wednesday morning. By Friday, he started keeping some of my milk down but the "runs" started it. Even until now, Sunday, I have been changing his diaper every hour. It is so sad to see him sick.
Friday, I came down with a cold and cough. It hit hard and fast. I was down the whole day. My visiting teaching partner happen to call me that morning about something else and found out I was sick. She brought dinner into us that night. Saturday I felt much better.
This afternoon, I had Talon hold him and take him outside so I could get some dishes done. Talon held him on the swing and Beauchene just cuddled him. It was another one of those moments that I just had to take a picture of. Just a minute ago, while I was changing his diaper again, he finally said "Ma Ma" very clearly. He has been saying Da Da for a while, but now he finally said Ma Ma. Yay!
This evening, Matt's dad came over to spend some time with us. He held Beauchene for us while we made dinner. Then after dinner he read stories to the kids while Matt and I did dishes. Then we played a game, Apples to Apples Junior, together until bedtime. We really had an enjoyable Sunday evening.
