A Bit Spotty

We have had Chicken Pox in our house for the last two weeks. There seems to have been a bit of an epidemic in our area. Nearly all of the children at Jacob's nursery have had it including his two best friends. I'm still waiting for Daniel's spots to come out though. My husband never had it as a child though so we are wondering whether he will get it too.
Don't be fooled by the smiles in this photo, Jacob has been grumpy, irritable, stubborn and whingy. Glad he's back to normal, which means he'll be back in nursery on Tuesday.

  4. Hopefully you've seen the last of it although it is better to get it over early, hope your DH doesn't get it or you're going to need a holiday!

  8. I didn't get it until I was 13. My mom thought I was naturally immune up until then because I had been exposed several times with no outbreak. So I went to a neighbor's house whose kids both had it... 7 days later, I was down for the count... as were two of MY friends who also hadn't had it up until then. Crazy! Hope everyone comes out okay... better to get it younger than older, is what I hear!

  9. Oh, you poor things xx Ack, we had a miserable time with chicken pox! The Boy wasn't too bad but The Girl was really poorly, and they had it consecutively so I was climbing the walls by the time they were both out of quarantine! I'm glad he's on the mend xx

    PS Belated happy anniversary, too - just catching up! :-)
