So, as I said in my last post, Roseola is contagious, especially to younger children... yeah, I am pretty sure my son has it too now. Thank goodness we had such a good morning. Both kids were in great moods, they were playing together well, the were both being cuddly. This lasted until about 2 hours, and then... the evil came forward. This day was honestly hard enough that I thought about how I wished I was at work and not at home. :-/ I do not like that I felt that way. I think the hardest thing for me to handle is my daughter's whining. She is only 9 months old, so she does not speak much yet. Instead, she whines, all the time, if you do not understand her she just continues to whine. I do not know why, but this is about the most annoying/frustrating sound on earth to me. It is worse than someone running their fingernails over a chalkboard. Oh my goodness, I was about to go out of my mind. I am sad to say that I was honestly looking forward to their nap time. When they finally went down for a nap, I was relieved. I honestly just sat... in silence, for a while.
They usually sleep for about 2 to 3 hours in the afternoon. My son woke up after about 45 minutes, screaming. Now, this is not normal. Both of my kids typically wake up calm and happy. So, I rush into the room to find out what is going on. I pick him up, and he is BURNING up. I took his temperature and he has a 103 degree temperature. Since he never had Roseola when he was a baby, I am pretty sure this is what was going on. :-( Poor little guy. I gave him some ibuprofen and he went back to sleep for a while. He did wake up crying again though. When my husband got home, I went straight for the long, hot shower... today, this was my Touch of Tranquility...
