Post sickness

Little O seems to be getting over the hand, foot, & mouth disease.  It has been a really awful sickness - fever, sores, rashes, crankiness... yesterday he spent the day with my mom and seemed to be in better spirits than the past couple of days.

This was the beginning... he had a few spots on his face. 

Beginning of the disease

Getting him in the bath was a bit difficult as the sores would get inflammed with the warm water.  But I did manage to get a smile out of him :-) 

Smile in the bath!

He did a lot of sleeping, especially on Thursday and Friday of last week.  This one is from Saturday when Tim and I were out running a few errands (sorry Oliver, but we do have a few things to take care of!).

Nap time

Here's hoping we can go a month before the next illness so I can bank up some PTO again!  :-)

  2. I'm sorry that your little buddy isn't feeling well but I'm glad to hear that he is doing better. Poor little guy...what a cutie he is...even with rashes on his face.

    I hear you on the PTO though...I'm grateful for one healthy day...maybe for Xmas I can get a whole month too!
