Tummy Bug?

Day three of non stop momma cuddles needed. Doc says it's a tummy bug and we are doing all the right things. I hope she is right and there is nothing else brewing. Seeing my already little man look smaller is no fun. Thankful It's been days I am not scheduled to work so I can be with him. Sometimes I think I'd rather live in a box, drive a Flintstone car, wear rags for clothes...you get the picture, than have to work and be away from this little guy. :( trying half strength today. Slowly. Praying he tolerates it. 
On another note, he came up out of no where and kissed the back of my hand yesterday. Yup. He knows just how to smooze his momma! When he puckers it's the most adorable thing. It's going to sound silly but he has just started doing that recently. A close friend had pics of her little one puckering probably a year ago and I wondered why Bricen didn't pucker. I don't know if he was able to. We've been going to the new therapy a few weeks now. They are working a lot more on getting in his mouth, his muscles, evaluating if he is too tight or does not have the muscles strength to move his mouth and do what needs done to eat. I think (again, maybe I'm silly) it has a lot to do with him puckering now. 
He also ate-literally ate as in swallowed five bites of hot dog last week and LET ME BRING THE SPOON TO HIS MOUTH! This has not happened in probably two summers! It only happen once, and I did try 1 million times before and after that and he wasn't having it but for that one time we cheered like he had won the Super Bowl. 
More to be thankful for than we can count but very ready for this little guy to be back to his old self. Will have to post some pics later.
