What's been going on.

I've been home for the summer with Anthony & we're both enjoying it very much. I love being able to be with him all the time & hear all his new words that he picks up on on a daily basis. He's getting so smart!! His birthday parties went well, I still can't believe my baby is 2! I start college on September 9Th & I'm very nervous. I have to take night classes, which run from 6pm-10pm Mon.-Wed & 6-8:45 Thursdays. I hope everything goes okay. I'm a little nervous to have to do all my work during the day while being a mother as well. I hope I don't start to slack in either subject.
Anthony broke out with a bad rash on Sunday & we thought it was chicken pox. We went to the doctors today, because I was a little curious as to what it was since he's not itching it at all & it doesn't seem to be affecting him. The doctors said he has coxsackie virus. Its just a rash all over his body, mouth included. There's not much you can do about it except give him lots of Popsicles & ice cream, which he is not one bit upset about. I also haven't been feeling too well. Hope all this craziness goes away soon!



This is a picture of coxsackie virus I took off google just so you get an idea of how it looks. Although Anthony's aren't as bad on his hands, it is on his butt, belly, legs & feet. However, he has no bumps on his back arms or face. His also don't look so blistery. The doctor said this is very common for kids to get near the end of the summer. She said everyday there's a couple kids that go in her office for it.
