Well....Hunter went to his home away from home again today...the doctor's office. Hunter is still very sick, fortunately we have been able to keep him hydrated but unfortunately we have not been able to remedy any of his symptoms. The doctor actually said this can take up to five days to get rid of, and if on Friday he is not better we have to take him back for a study. As if he hasn't been through enough. The doctor said this is going around, and that it is contagious. Hunter got it from someone else who was carrying it, and didn't wash their hands, they either touched his hands, his toys, etc. then he put them or the toy in his mouth, and lucky Hunter. Which is very upsetting to us, because of everything he has already been through, and we were looking forward to watching baby Paige on Thursday and we just can't take the chance of her getting sick too, although I am becoming OCD hand washer it's just not worth taking the risk.

I do have a funny and embarrassing story about the doctor's office. We were in the waiting room when (I should tell you that Hunter's stomach and other natural bodily sounds are very loud since he has been ill) so, we are waiting when Hunter lets out the loudest and longest passing of gas, so bad that people were looking at us and laughing, I'm sure they thought it wasn't possible to come out of Hunter so cute and little, which obviously made us embarrassed because we were the likely culprit.

The best thing happened while we were in the room, I hope some of you can relate. I have been working very hard to get Hunter to give kisses, and blow kisses. I was holding him when he turned grabbed my face and dove into it with a wide mouth, it was the best feeling ever, I couldn't stop from tearing up, and neither could grandma. I thought it probably wasn't a kiss, but grandma said it was for sure a kiss! So, I said Hunter give me another kiss, and I kissed him and he did it again, probably the most exciting accomplishment this far. Definitely what I needed when we are both feeling so bad, it pains me to see him this sick...again. His sickness this time has brought out a different side of him, he is very cuddly, which just tugs at your heart!

We hope that you all are doing well, and we hope that we will be bringing you pictures again real soon!
