Chicken Pox

May 19th, 2008

Seriously, I was shocked to find out that J has chicken pox!  He started out with a couple on his belly and then the next day he had a whole lot more.  The sad thing is that he had played with three of his friends and went to preschool when he was contagious.  I guess they are contagious two days before the blisters appear.  Who knew?  Hopefully no one else will get it.

I feel bad for him because it was fieldtrip day to the Zoo today.  We also had playgroup at our house this week, and a father and sons camp-out this week end.  Depending on if he is better or not we may miss our annual trip to the cemetery and Maddox.  I guess time will tell.

Luckily he isn’t too sick.  They blisters don’t seem to bother him much.  He just knows that he can’t play with other kids until the spots are gone.  He does like to show his belly to anyone who will look.  Wish me luck!
