Another ailment! Hand, foot, and mouth disease is circulating around Annabelle’s school and sure enough she caught it. It’s a rash that is highly contagious among little kids. She is no longer contagious but the rash takes about 5 days to go away. The early stages are commonly misdiagnosed as an ear infection which would explain why the doctor gave us antibiotics last week for inflamed ears but why they didn’t seem to help while we were in Arizona.

Annabelle is trying all kinds of new foods in her new class at daycare. She had potato soup, corn and breadsticks for lunch yesterday! Since she is getting more adventurous at school we’re letting her try new things at home too. For dinner she had tortellini and breadsticks. She’s transitioning to table food really well.
