It was a rough week for the wee one. Somehow, Kyle ended up developing something called "stomatitis." So, he had himself a really difficult few days.
The highest his fever got was about 104.5 (which kinda freaked Mommy and Daddy out just a bit). This happened, of course, in the wee hours of the morning. So, poor Kyle was thrown into the bathtub too try to cool him down. It was awful watching him shivering like crazy and crying because he was sooo cold.
His fever finally broke on Sunday and we thought it was all over. Not quite so.
As we were getting ready to bring him to Judy's house that morning, I brought him to give Mommy a kiss and she noticed what looked like a rash on his neck. Oh, joy!
So, we checked his belly...rash, checked under his diaper...rash.
Because Judy has a couple other kiddos there during the day, we didn't feel comfortable bringing Kyle over with a rash until we had it checked out. The upside is that when we went to the Dr., they told us that it was roseola.
As of yesterday, it was fading nicely, and looks even fainter today. We're hoping that he will be back to being his normal, happy, funny self before this weekend since he'll be going up to Williams, AZ for a ride on the Polar Express.
We're hoping for a much more pleasant weekend, this time around.
We'll keep you posted. And we'll be sure to post pictures.
