So Grayson puked all over Bret on Friday night while we were at my mom's house playing games. By the time we got him home he had a fever and chills. We spent the rest of that night waking up every 2 hours to clean up more vomit. By Saturday the vomitting had subsided but the fever persisted. Medicine would rarely bring it down and he just laid around all day (needless to say we watched A LOT of Cars). Saturday evening he was acting fine and playing with the neighbor kids. But that night he was back to being miserable and constantly up. Sunday went much the same way, but that night the puking started again. At around 10:30 Sunday night we decided to take Gray into the ER at Gilbert Hospital. His breathing had changed and he seemed in far too much discomfort. Bret took him in while I stayed home in case Mabel woke up and wanted to eat. They ran a few tests on him and it came back that he had Pneumonia!! I was thinking strep throat, ear infection...something along those lines, but no, it was pneumonia. I am truly grateful that we decided to take him in! They put him on some antibiotics and he's back to the old Gray again...fighting with his brother.
Funny side note- John, Todd, Kendra, Jay, and I took my mom out to dinner Monday night for her's and Dad's anniversary. Kendra had called to see if we were going and I told her Gray had pneumonia, but was doing better so I thought we could make it (we ended up thinking better of that idea so I went alone). Kendra e-mailed John, Todd and Kristin about it but said Grayson had ammonia. Todd replied, "Grayson has ammonia?" And Kendra replied, "That's what I said!" To her credit, she said she typed it right the first time but it looked wrong so she changed it. But I still can't figure out why she got sassy when Todd (in his usual loving mocking way) called her on it??? Good times, good times. Love ya Kenj!

I hate when my kids are really sick. I hope that your other 2 stayed healthy. Glad Grayson could kick the ammonia bug.
