Long week

It's been a long week! Lola started running a fever last Wednesday...when I finally took her to the doctor on Monday, I took off all her clothes to weigh her and she was covered in a rash! Her diagnosis was roseola. On top of that she got pinkeye! After treating her with eye drops from the doctor for a couple of days, it wasn't getting better...then she woke up yesterday and her eye was completely swollen shut! She looked like she'd been punched in the face! Another call to the doc, a new prescription, and I think we're on our way to health for Lola. All that to say, here's a picture of poor, miserable Lola and my ginormous laundry pile of clean clothes that may or may not get folded today. It's been a long week!

Hi Allie,
I love your blog, and your kids are adorable! This is Christy Shannon Lowry from way back when.

I just wanted to say that Reagan had roseola and the rash lasted a long time or I could see the rash for a long time. The doctor told us that the sun would help it fade and heal faster.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi..."Hi".

Christy,

Good to hear from you! Are you still in Salem? I was just digging through pictures of our Australia trip with my daughter because she wanted to see a picture of me holding a koala! That was a long time ago! Hope you're doing well.

Allie,
Yes, I am in Salem, well West Salem ;)
That is too funny about the Kola picture, I had mine out for the same reason. Yes, that was a long time ago!
I see Shannon almost every week at a mom's bible study called hearts at home. She is in a different group but we see each other during the large group meetings.

Talk to you later,
Christy :)
