Today didn’t work out the way I had planned. I had intended to go into the office today for some special meetings…and my girls both woke up sick. Over the weekend, they both started getting bug bites all over them - except that they hadn’t really been outside long enough to get bitten up. And new spots kept appearing! Catherine counted 65 on Saturday. I didn’t think it was chicken pox because they had the vaccine, and there weren’t any spots on their backs or stomachs.

Off to the doctor we went, once both girls started complaining of sore throats and sniffles and just feeling bad. The doctor was stumped until he did a strep test, and it turns out both girls have strep (the 2nd time in 5 months for Gracie) and he thinks that’s what is causing this weird rashy bug bite looking stuff. Hopefully the rest of the house doesn’t get it - I’m itchy just thinking about it!
