Damien Gets Roseola =(

Well, the Craig's were all set to go to Bethel Island for Memorial Day weekend. Momma, had cooked and baked a ton of food, the car was packed, we were just waiting on little D to wake up from his long nap. Well, when he did, Momma noticed that he was burning up. So, we took the little guy's temperature and it was 102.7. Yikes. His first big fever. We grabbed the baby medical book, put a call in to D's doctor and called our friends to cancel. Poor little D was super sad, clingy and sleepy. He spent most of the day in Momma's arms. Damien's fever lasted for 3 days, and on the fourth day he broke out into a rash all over his chest and back. Well, that confirmed the diagnosis, he had Roseola. A viral infection that is pretty common in young babies, and pretty harmless. D took it like a champ!




A pair of sad pandas.


Our poor little guy running hot.


Starting to feel better, despite his illness, he still had some smiles.


The rash. Thankfully it did not bother him.


What rash? I'm still a happy monkey.
