It's been a long, long week...


Since last weekend's post, Izzy's fever progressively got worse. It peaked at 105...but remained above 100 for almost 5 days. We learned from her school that Roseola was going around. I referred to my old school pharma days' Dermatology book and sure enough, Roseola starts with an extremely high fever for 5+ days and when the fever breaks, a mild rash becomes present. So we just waited for the rash...which came on Thursday and disappeared the same day. She made her big debut back at school on Friday and is back to eating and playing and her usual self. However, as noted in the above pic, while Izzy was home with daddy sick, she did a lot of sleeping - anywhere from 13-14 hours at night and up to 4-5 hour naps during the day. She was a big cuddler and we soaked it all in.
Izzy's back!
Enjoying some Sunday morning cartoons (thanks to Jen and Mary for the rockstar jammers!)

Izzy loves to snack on Alpha-Bits (note Baxter anxiously waiting for his share in the background)

And she loves to walk around with the box until you give her more!

Saturday night we met our friends, the Fellers, out for dinner at my fave pizza place - HOT BOX (for all Hoosiers, we all know the real name is Pizza Express, but whatev). There were some cheerleaders at the restaurant and the kiddos couldn't keep their eyes off of them (how could you? their skirts were barely covering them!). Love this pic...

Izzy: I want to BE her...

Luke: I WANT her...

So sorry that Izzy felt yucky for so long, but I am glad she is back to herself!
