Zeke and Caleb have coxsackie virus, probably better known as hand foot and mouth disease.   They have horribly painful mouth sores and today Caleb has an upset stomach.  he hasnt eaten in a day or two and is completely unbearable.   so what’s the doctors recommendation for a child who wont put anything in his mouth, gargle w/ a mix of benadryl and mylanta…yeah you try it!   So I got Zeke to do it fine suprisingly, but Caleb tasted it and that was it.  the poor kid is so hungry and cant eat anything.  Friends we visited in maryland have it too so that is probably where we got it. I’m praying the rest of us stay well!!  I’m trying really hard to keep cups and utensils separate!

on a happier note, it’s our neices’ birthday! happy Birthday Laura!!!
