I was fun to see him act just like a little boy!! Then after we went to dinner to Famous Daves..Drake loved the Ice cream that Grandma was giving him...Happy Bithday day!! We know you had a great day!! We love you!!

Roseola

This past week has been crazy...Skyler and I are getting ready to leave for Jackson Hole, and Sunday I noticed that Drake had a little rash around his belly. Great I thought to myself...I didn't really think to much about it, thought it might be just a diaper rash..I just kept watching it throughout the day. Drake has been sick with a runny nose for like a month, I thought it was just because he is getting more teeth(has 5 now and only 7 months old)..So I took him to the sitters on Thrusday. Cindy and I both just thought the same thing, I didn't want him there if he was going to get everyone else sick, Cindy told me he was fine. So the rash got worse by Sunday night..I told Skyler if it isn't gone by the morning I have to get him in the to Dr. We Woke up Monday morning, the rash was worse..on his head, his back, eye. I called Cindy told her he would not be coming until I found out what was going on. Called the Dr's office right at 7 am, got Drake a Dr appointment for 9:15..called my mom and told her I didn't know what to do with Drake because Skyler and I both had to be to work before 8..she said she would come over and then I would meet her at the Dr's for his appointment..
The Dr. looks at him and says,"I have seen alot of ROSEOLA going around right now"..ok, what HECK is that. I said to him...oh just a virus, but he isn't contagious anymore..he was before, but not now that he has the rash..Oh Great! I called Cindy, told her he wasn't contagious anymore and if any of the other kids get a rash that is what it is..I felt soooooo bad, she told me not to worry it happens..But needless to say I'm a terrible mother and didn't take any pictures of it...but it's a virus and you can't do much about it..
I thought Skyler and I weren't going to be able to go to Jackson, But we are...we are getting ready to leave today...We hope all is going well and we love you all!!
