Fevers, Bumps, Itchies, and Irritabliness, Oh My!

Well, Ayson's unexplained fever from last Saturday became clearer on Monday when he woke up with red bumps on his mouth, hands, butt, legs, and feet. We thought chicken pox but the Dr said it was Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease and that Addie was most likely "going down" next.  Addie got her fever Wednesday night and was fussy Thursday and Friday due to the itchy red bumps.


Playing at the park on Tuesday, Ayson found a HUGE branch and insisted on carrying it back to the house so that we could burn it this winter in our wood stove.



Addie learned how to roll down the hill.



A trick that Mommy taught the kids: blowing on spent (white) dandelions...Mommy is certain that the neighbors love this!



Ayson zooming around in his gator on Thursday while Daddy mowed the yard.



Friday night baseball!  The kids had fun taking turns hitting the ball..."my turn, my turn!!!"



Ayson's turn!



Mommy's phone camera has a "burst mode" that catches many shots in seconds so Mommy was able to get some great photos of Ayson.

Addie FINALLY eating her dinner...no ice cream unless you eat all of your peas!



This week, Ayson's class focused on the color blue.
