Ahh...that explains it

On Thursday night Isaac started running a fever. It finally went away Sunday night. He's also been incredibly moody, throwing tantrums over the smallest, sometimes unknown things. Usually, we know what upsets him and can deal with the howling and rolling all over the floor a little easier. This morning he woke up with a rash all over his little body. Ah Ha! He has roseola (a mild little sickness caused by a virus that causes a fever for several days, moodiness, and then a rash for short period of time). I was glad to hear there was a reason for his constant crankiness and that he wasn't just suddenly an angry child-especially because I started to wonder how I was going to take care of a newborn and a screaming toddler at the same time. (Yes, I know there will be times when he's totally healthy and still throws several tantrums a day). Thankfully, he was rather well behaved while I ran a few errands today and is now peacefully sleeping. I suppose I should go use this time to do something useful. I think I'm too tired for my nesting instinct to kick in today so I better clean and organize without it...
