attack of the chicken pox

Merry Christmas

another round of chicken pox

Friday Sharon noticed a couple spots on Sydney, one on her face and another under the diaper. So we watched her and by Friday night she had five pox. Saturday we gave her an Aveeno oatmeal bath and more of the pesky pox appeared. The one on her face near her nose grew, I hope it's not the mama pox. On Monday when we woke up - Sydney was pretty much covered, she's got more on her face than Peyton got. Sydney even got a couple on her lips, I sure hope they skip the inside of her mouth. Poor girl has been covered in the aveeno itch cream plus a ton of cornstarch concoction. I'll try and post some pictures soon. The babies are demanding at the moment... so I try to steal a few minutes when I can.

Pox

Here a pox, there a pox, everywhere a pox pox - Poor lil Peyton's got a pox

Here an itch, there an itch, everywhere an itch itch - Poor lil Peyton's got an itch

Pox on my back, on my neck, in my hair

pox on my front, on my ears, on my eyelids

missing a santa picture

Thursday at yoga Peyton kept standing for long periods of time, she'd go forward onto her toes and then back onto her hears - rocking - sometimes she's lose her balance and catch herself. it was so cute. The girls were excited to be back at yoga. They missed all their friends, and especially Julie. Sydney went and introduced herself to the new babies - Prince was the one she decided to hang out with. Peyton and Sydney both played nice with Amelia, although Sydney kept trying to pull Amelia or use her as a ladder. Bianca enjoyed Yoga too... well she rode the bike for awhile, chased the babies some and visited with Julia - a must. I was thrilled to be back at Yoga... I miss it. I'm looking forward to going every thursday that I can.

Last night Sydney took three steps, she's on her way to walking. She was standing up then started to walk towards grandma, who wasn't very far away. Left, Right, Left- Catch me....

SATURDAY

This morning we planned on going to visit Santa and get the classic 1st picture with Santa for Sydney and Peyton and probably the 11th for Bianca - but Peyton had a couple bumps on her face, I checked her neck... more there, I took off her onsie, she had a huge chicken pox on her chest and one on her back, plus lots of little ones.... It's late in the day and she's pretty much covered now. She had the most on her head, hiding in her beautiful hair. Her hair is now brown and pink....

Sydney might have one.... nothing else yet. We'll be waiting. Needless to say it's gonna be a pictureless Christmas for us. Sydney is playing nice with her sister and not giving her to hard a time. There's been no hair pulling going on.

On the good side.... Peyton is her cheerful self. Nothing gets the girl down - HOORAY!!!

Looks like I won't be back to Yoga for awhile.... pouts

Who says Peyton's sick?

Daycare Christmas Party

It had been six years since we've been to the Sharon and Dick Christmas Party. Bianca was four the last time we went. A new tradition is born - Sydney and Peyton's turn for daycare. It's wonderful for the girls because they've got their two cousins looking out for them. Dominic is always there to greet them in the morning and it doesn't take long for Donovan to join in the fun. The party was a blast, the kids caroled, we ate good food and enjoyed.
