Oh what a trip!

The last week of our trip wasn't quite the fun we were hoping for. Elliot got a bout of gastro and his poor tummy got so upset that he couldn't keep any solids down for ten days. We'd start slowly with the pedialyte and bland crackers, then formula, but no matter how long we waited or how little we gave him as soon as we gave him something a bit more substantial -- big ole vomits! I can assure you it was not fun for any of us. We had to cancel most of our plans for the last week including our much anticipated trip to L.A. to catch up with my good friend, Monica, and her gorgeous little family.

But all was not so bad in the end, after so many days of no food, we figured Elliot could handle a few more and decided to risk the flight home. Thankfully, he only had one tiny little vomit the whole way. And even better he didn't vomit again and started eating like the Elliot we know once we landed on Aussie soil. Best of all, Monica, came and rescued us from our lengthy layover at LAX and picked us up so we could have a couple of fantastic hours catching up over dinner. It was a short visit, but oh so sweet!
