A Big Fat YUCK

Owen is sick yet again. We know that when he is up for 3 hours in the middle of the night something must be up. Yesterday he woke up with green gunk gluing his eyes shut. I thought pink eye but the eyes are clear and his nose is dripping too. He also developed a rash around his diaper line. Today the rash moved down his legs and to his hands so I knew it was time to call the doctor.

We went in this morning and boy is he sick. The doctor diagnosed him with hand, foot, and mouth, double ear infections, and a really bad cold. He is now on a decongestant, eye drops, and an antibiotic. He just looks pitful. The skin under his eyes are red from where we have wiped the goop up constantly. His rash is everywhere now but his arms. We are home for a couple of days it looks like. I hoping he can sleep and heal as we have many activities coming up late in the week and weekend. Hopefully I can get a nap in today too! :(
