a few minutes....

Easton has been "sick" this whole week, so no school.  He woke up Sunday morning with an ugly rash on his forehead and after me giving him children's benadryl with no help, we trotted off to the pediatrician Monday.  They tested him for strep (sometimes strep can come in a rash...who knew?), negative (yay and huge sigh of relief), and came to the conclusion that he has a bacterial rash that is contagious.  So, off to the pharmacy to get antibiotics and to set up the house to be quarantined.  I am hoping that he can go back to school tomorrow.  The rash is looking better and he has too much energy to be pent up in the house for 4 days straight.

The kids are watching Labyrinth right now and I think that is the only time it has been quiet in my house for several minutes at a time.  Sigh.
