malia's sick!


Malia has had a fever since MONDAY! Kalofae huh. This morning she woke up with a rash all over her torso so we finally took her to the doctor. He said it was a virus called Roseola that causes a high fever for several days and then a fine red rash for a few days. When the rash goes away the illness is gone. Whew! at least we know what it is, right? he he. He also told us she has an ear infection. Kalofae Malia. What's with my kids and ear infections? They must get it from their mother:) No worries, though. She's taking medicine and is on the mend!:) Here's hoping for a great next week!

Ah yes... Roseola... so many I know have gotten that this winter. I swear, dude-this winter has been a BAD BAD BAD one... Can't wait for the summer-hopefully Cryptosporidian doesn't come back (you know, that poop disease in the water).

Blake got that last year and it is no fun. Her face is so sad in this picture! I hope she is feeling better.
