Hand Foot and Mouth Virus

My favorite family shot. This one is going to be framed and above our fireplace to replace Brandon and mine 8 year old engagement photo.

Well we arrived home on Sat. night from our beach trip to have TWO VERY unhappy babies on Tuesday. Since this is not their normal personality we thought they were still just tired from our trip. On Wednesday morning we go the boys up and Brock felt really hot to me. We took his temperature and sure enough he was sick. His fever was 102.6 and when I took C's it was about 100.6. We called the doctor, rearranged our day and made a visit. Both boys had hand, foot and mouth virus and had blisters in the back of their throat and high fevers. Most likely they caught it at the airport since that was about the time infection would have occurred.

Wednesday night they were pretty sick and then Thursday, mom got something too! Yikes! Sick mom, sick babies and one sad husband. We all seemed to mostly recover by the weekend and were able to have the Crimmon's and their daughter Erin over on Monday for memorial day. We set up a canopy in the backyard with the super play yard underneath and let the boys play outside.

Besides a small runny nose for C, we are all feeling better :) We went up to Aaron and Elizabeth Koury's new house yesterday and they were so wonderful to have us and the boys. The boys loved exploring the new space.

We have already been very busy this week and will start Brandon's month of travel next week. The boys and I will spend some seriously quality time together in June as Brandon travels for work and pleasure.

C is sitting up these day VERY well and loves to stand and play with toys. He has 4 teeth and loves to nibble on your hand. B is scooting, rolling and SOOOO close to crawling. He is up on all hands and knees and rocks back and forth. He is such a wiggle worm these days and you are NOT able to control the little man. There is still quiet of bit of tug of war for the toys and mom and dad's time. B has 2 teeth and a LOT of drool.

The pictures above were of our May photo shoot with Lindsay right before Mother's Day. I love her work and she does such a great job with the boys.
