The title of this post is weird, right? Because first we had fun at Piper's Fall Festival, and then 3 days later Sully woke up with Hand Foot Mouth Disease. It is a virus that can't be cured by antibiotics. You just have to ride it out. None of my kids have ever had this before, but as soon as I saw all of his bumps and blisters on his skin on Sunday morning I knew immediatley what it was. Poor boy is just miserable :'( For now we are keeping him home and away from everyone since it is highly contagious. He is so itchy and can't sleep. I think the itchiness wakes him up. He also has no appetite, and that's probably because his mouth and throat hurt. At first I was certain that he got it from my Gym Daycare, but then I remembered that I also took him to Piper's school for her Fall festival. It could have been either place....But he's not happy and it breaks my heart. He is extra cuddly though, and a little bit less busy (which, to be honest, has been nice). But I don't like to see him uncomfortable. Makes me sad. They say the worst of it is the first 3 days after the sores pop up. Today is number 2. We're halfway there.
Anyway, the Fall Festival that I spoke of above was super cute! It was so much fun getting to visit Piper at her Fall Festival and watch her interact with her friends. She is SUCH a little social butterfly🦋! I I don’t get to see this side of her often. She’s so different at school vs. at home. I loved every minute of it!🍁🍪🐴🍬 She has lots of friends! She pulls them all in close and says “let’s take a picture together!” Haha. And she had an adjective for each of them: “Rosie is my pretty friend.” “Konrad is my awesome friend.” “Emerson is my special friend.” Etc. I loved it.
I love this picture SO much! |
Lastly, the girls had Dress up night at Dance this week. Piper’s Tinkerbell outfit is like a 2T so I had to add an old TuTu underneath it to add some length, haha! And Lucy’s just recycling her recital outfit from May because she’s “dressed as a Pop Star.” Looks like I need to update our dress-up bin😂
Tomorrow is HALLOWEEN!!!! I hope it's happy for everyone! We are READY! :)
Poor Sully! Hope he's feeling better!
