After a couple of very long and tiring days, we made it to tracies brothers place in Philly.
It was not a pleasant trip. Ethan developed gastro during our night in Hawaii. He vomited 5 times in about 2 hours around 1-3am. Then again when he woke up. He was surprisingly fine most of the day, we even went to the beach for a swim. Then in the afternoon the diarrhoea started :(
Poor love wasn't able to control it, so we got him some pullups, which he happily wore.
As we were waiting to board our plane and having our dinner later that night he threw up again. We had a 6 hour (red eye) flight from Hawaii to Seattle a two hour stopover then a 5 hour flight to Newark (new jersey). Poor Ethan had multiple episodes of diarrhoea and vomiting and became quite lethargic and dehydrated during these 2 flights. Tracie and I also started to get some abdo cramping, nausea and cold shivers during these flights. It was not pleasant at all :(
Ethan was a trooper, never complained and plodded along best he could.
I am happy to say, after we arrived in new jersey last night, Ethan has now gone 24 hours without vomiting. He has eaten small light meals today and is picking up :)
Tracie and I are also feeling better and it seems our immune systems were able to fight it off. Ben is so far unaffected. We are hoping it stays that way.
We are looking forward to spending a week here with tracies family before heading to Orlando, Florida to see Mickey mouse for the boys birthday!
Only one photo to share (rest on the actual camera). We bought some car seats in haiwaii for our rental cars. It's cheaper to buy our own American seats ($75each) than it is to rent them in 3 locations ($200each). And this way we know they are safe, new and clean.

OH DEAR, I hope hope Ethan is feeling better and that the rest of you didnt/havent gotten it. What a little trooper. I bet you all are having a blast! I cant believe rental carseats were going to cost that much! Ridiculous. So looking forward to seeing more updates and seeing you all in 10DAYS! We cant wait!!!
