Hand foot and mouth Disease

Last Thursday Tanner woke up with a fever and had it all day. I am glad that it wasn't a Rosila fever of 104. This time his fever only went up to 100. He was clingy and cranky, and he didn't know what he wanted. And of course it was the day after I'd just picked 4 boxes of green beans from my grandma's garden. It wasn't easy taking care of Tanner and getting my 27 pints and 21 quarts of green beans done. I ended up processing 2 batches the next day.

 He was feeling a bit better on Friday then he started breaking out in little red spots on his arms. 

He got just a little bit around his mouth and on his nose that made him look like he has boogies.

 This is the worst part on his legs. The doctor thought it was weird that he mostly got it on his lower half. Poor Tanner had spots on his bum as well. 

 And he got spots on this foot- not the other one. He isn't contagious anymore. The doctor said that it is only contagious when he has the fever, but that this disease is going around. 

I am so glad he is feeling better now and sleeping through the night again. 

Our Ice cream Vampire

 My family came over for Family home evening earlier this month and we had ice cream bars for desert. Tanner has never had one. He loved it. I love the drips coming down his cheeks.

 He only had a couple bites left and he dropped it. 

 I love his shovel lip.

He was a lot happier after we told him he could have another one.
