Funny Discoveries

So Saturday as Isaac is driving me crazy and I have run completely out of patience by 10am, Greg says to me, "Honey, why don't you take the boys somewhere?" And I think to my self...are you insane?! You want me to take 2 boys...under the age of 2 out in public by my self?! But of course I didn't say it, I just made up some excuse as to why I couldn't. I eventually decided that I should just pull my self up by my boot straps and do it. So I packed up my 2 boys and we went to the park. The discovery?! It felt so good to get out of the house. Isaac was amazing and Gary slept in the snugly the whole time! I rewarded him with chicken nuggets from McDonald's and we came home. Isaac slept for 3 hrs and when he got up we went out again! I managed to go to Wal-Mart (lets face it, you may fight them and not want them in your town but we all know that when they come, because they will come, you'll shop there!!) and then to the mall with out spending any money! The only money I spent that day was the gas in my car and the $3 for lunch! I was so impressed with my self restraint and Isaac being so good all day as we basically spent the whole day killing time. No purpose what so ever being out or being where we were, just to kill time and pass the day. Our Saturday was filled with absolute pointless wanderings. I got nothing accomplished but it sure felt good to just be out of the house!!! When Greg is right it's a love hate relationship. I love that his advice worked and hate the fact that I didn't think of it and doubted him!

HeCticNesS

What a week!! So last Tuesday the 5th Isaac stepped on a screw while playing on the water slide at Greg's parents house. nothing major, a minor cut on the bottom of his foot. Friday i take him to the Dr to make sure it's healing and he doesn't need any kid of shot. He didn't and the cut was fine. Isaac, however, had Roseola (Baby measles). Come to find out Roseola is contagious 4 days before the break out and 4 days after the break out. We were confined to our apartment for a week!!! I had to call every parent of every child he had played with in the past week and tell them that Isaac had the measles and the symptoms that they should look for in their child. In the mean-time we had to keep poor sick Isaac away from Gary (Whom he loves dearly and didn't like the fact that he couldn't hug and kiss his baby brother and didn't understand why) and he was cranky...and i mean Cranky!!!! He is no longer contagious and his rash has cleared, Gary on the other hand has developed a rash. We've taken him to the Dr. twice and they keep telling us that because he has no fever and has none of the symptoms of Roseola, he's fine, but they won't tell us what the rash is or what it's from. Illness is frustrating!!!
