Memorial Day weekend was....well, let's just say it was better than a weekend spent shoving toothpicks in my eyes. Although I was tempted to do just that on a few occasions.
Scott has hand, foot and mouth disease. It sounds really icky, but it's not really dangerous - just very uncomfortable for the poor kid. It is absolutely not the same thing as foot and mouth disease - Scott does not have mad cow. His symptoms include a rash on his feet, hands and a few other spots on his body, painful sores in his mouth, fever, unwillingness to eat and drink, and extreme fussiness. He's also extremely fussy. Did I mention he's fussy? Um, yes. He's extremely fussy.
We've done nothing but watch TV all weekend (try watching Ice Age 337 times in a row and see if you don't go insane) and attempt to pacify our whining, uncomfortable child. It is both pitiful and maddening. Thankfully, he seems to be on the upswing, so here's hoping tomorrow is better.
Juliet seems to be doing okay so far, but HFM is extremely contagious, so I'm thinking it's only a matter of time. Whee.
