Well, it was definitely chicken pox in our house. Sophie had some on her arms and legs which would get worse throughout the day but then fade when she was rested. They never turned into blisters and she never seemed really itchy. Emily has about five red spots on the side of her neck which look like they might be chicken pox but probably could also just be bumps from where she gets wet from drinking her bottle or spitting up. But so far, knock wood, that is it. So thank you all for your good thoughts and prayers. It seems the worst of it really wasn't that bad at all and might be on the way out. We are so grateful it wasn't worse than that for either of them and feel extremely lucky if this is as bad as it would get for us. Considering it's now day 5 for Sophie, we feel she must be getting over it by now (most of what we read said that day 3 would be the worst). Hooray!!!
In other news, Sophie has a new princess flapper dress that she had to have at Toys R Us and will not take off. If she could she would sleep in it (but we don't let her). She immediately wants to put it on when she wakes up in the morning and prances around in it all day (going on day 2 now). Emily had some early am wake-ups this weekend which was kind of a bummer but I guess she could have been fighting a chicken pox virus and I still think she is teething, too. Thankfully, she slept until after 6am today so that was rather kind of her, I thought.

I am so glad that it seems to be a mild case. The dress is so cute that it is wrong. Just wrong. I would wear it every day if I had one, so who can question her motives?
