Chicken Pox

Our sweet Caroline got the chicken pox from somewhere! The bumps appeared literally out of nowhere and we have no idea where she was exposed to them. The doctor said it was the first case he had seen this year. But Caroline has been such a trooper! She has not acted like she felt bad at all and has not run fever since Sunday. She has been playing hard with Winnie and Granddaddy who came to keep her at the beginning of the week. She is looking better everyday. The bumps are slowly healing and disappearing, thank goodness! We were supposed to leave today to go visit my best friend Tracy, her husband Adam, and their daughter Adalyn who just turned one (they live in Conway, AR). But we do not want to expose Adalyn to the chicken pox, so we will be staying in town. We are so sad to cancel our trip, but we are going to reschedule it soon!


Look closely and you can see the bumps on her sweet face!

Caroline looks a lot like her spotted giraffe! We think she is just as beautiful with spots, of course!
