Hand Foot Mouth

Oh Halen. On Saturday, May 14th you started running a really high fever. It was very unusual for you because you're never sick. We thought it was a reaction to your Chicken Pox vaccine the Tuesday before. But by Monday I was informed that Hand, Foot & Mouth disease was going around and Ben had a confirmed case. So I took you into the pediatrician and sure enough you had HFM. Then we found out Ainsley had it too. So mommy decided to take some time with just you and no other kiddos. On Monday is when the sores got worse, you woke up that night at 12:30 a.m. screaming in pain. It made mommy so sad. We were up for four hours until you finally fell back asleep. This virus is no fun, and I'm so bummed you got it. You've been so healthy this year compared to last year with all your ear infections. And mommy is 38 weeks pregnant, which makes this even more interesting. Your sister could come at any time.

I am writing this blog as you slumber away next to me. I love you darling girl, and I hope this moves through your system quickly. 

Love, 

Your Mommy
