This mama's bag of tricks is near EMPTY!

Tuesday night, as I clicked my way around the web I was startled by a scream. A "mommy I am in pain SCREAM!" I really HATE those screams! I headed in to Madison's room to see what in the world had happened. I found her DRENCHED in sweat and the poor baby was wailing... She was able to FINALLY get out that her mouth hurt :(

Flash back to vacay: My nephew ended up with Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease so she was totally exposed, but I had thought we were in the clear... yeah another FAIL on my part!

I picked up my beautiful mini and dug through my drawers of crap looking for a flashlight and then of course some working batteries. She was all calm by the time I was able to take a peek inside that teeny tiny mouth... Sure enough it was covered with many sores 
:( Hand, Foot, and Mouth... HOORAY... not!

In the morning I stole a peek at Anthony's mouth and sure enough he had a few sores as well... So we have been riding the Hand, Foot, and Mouth train for a few days now :( I am REALLY over being trapped inside, we are all missing our friends, and I have pulled out every possible craft, game, and trick up my sleeve. I am outta ideas! (I must say though, my house is CLEAN!)

Honestly, I can't complain because they have not felt bad AT ALL! If it weren't for their mouth sores I would have no clue that they were germ infested cootie spreading sick kids! I would take this virus over any fever running, vomit spewing, diarrhea shooting bug any day! I just can't get them to understand why they can't play with their friends! Each morning Anthony has brought me my handy dandy flashlight to look and see if he can play with his best buddies yet! Poor boy is so upset when I say no, yet again!

Thankfully, Ant's mouth is all cleared up as far as I can tell, and Mad's are ALMOST gone! I should be able to remerge back into society in a few short days! Watch out world we will be back on the loose with TONS of energy to expend!
