Chickenpox....WHAT!!!!

This was my reaction on Monday after taking Isaac to the doctor for a rash. Isaac hasn't been feeling well since Sunday, not eating well, not sleeping well. But on Monday he seemed to be doing better so we took him to the babysitter and at 2:00 he broke out into what we thought were hives. We took him to the doctor right away because we were worried he might be allergic to his formula but the doctor thought it was the beginning of chickenpox! It didn't make sense because Isaac hasn't been exposed to anyone. We were told to observe the rash for 24 hours and report back. Tuesday morning he broke out again after eating half his formula bottle so we went back to the doctor and found out it's not chickenpox but a virus that causes hives. The doctor had me switch to soy formula too, just to make sure it wasn't the formula. Isaac has been feeling better since yesterday and is almost back to normal eating patterns. I'm supposed to call the doctor again today and find out if and when I can add the milk formula back into his diet. Here's a picture of his rash.

As promised we have finally downloaded the software to get our pictures from our new camera on our computer. The next few days will be full of the pictures I've taken over the last 6 weeks. Since I haven't blogged for a while I will let you know what we've been up to.

This was Isaac's first Halloween and we did buy him a costume but we didn't really trick or treat. We took him over to some friends to show off his costume but he was in bed long before trick or treating was over! He was defintely the cutest puppy we have ever seen!

Isaac's costume is a 12-24 month costume but he might be too tall for it next year! We hope he can wear it again but like everything else we buy...we just never know!

Isaac is trying to help me type again and this time it is not going well so I will give more updates later. Enjoy the pictures and I promise it won't be a month before I update again!
