The Attack of the Monkey Pox

Well, not really monkey pox, just Baby Measles. We call Jake our little monkey (he climbs things, bites things, makes whooping and hollering noises, he clings to us with his hands and feet, he even wears a diaper like a domesticated monkey AND he is curious and always into mischief like Curious George). My mom used to call Carrie and I monkey 1 and monkey 2 so I think that is part of it as well. Anyway, the two day 102 fever was followed by red rash pictured below. His fever finally broke Sunday night and he has been mostly his usual self since then with the exception of his sporty red spots.

As you can see it has not dampened his spirits one bit. Here he is trying to break into the refrigerator, his newest appliance obsession.
