Henry's tummy trouble

When Henry woke up from his afternoon nap covered in poo and with a low-grade fever, HutcH and I decided to take him to the doctor. He's been having tummy trouble this past week (just ask Betz and Kyle about their experience babysitting last Saturday night!). I kept on thinking it was from his recent apple addiction since going to the orchard, but seems that it's gastritis AND the beginnings of an ear infection. The doc gave him a shot of antibiotic (since oral meds tend to increase the chance of diarrhea) and told us to have him avoid milk and meat until the symptoms subside. Apples, apparently, are still fine. Henry wasn't too happy about the shot, but other then being just a little cranky and a little more clingy he's doing just fine. He's such a tr(p)ooper!
