Chicken Pox

McKenna officially has chicken pox. I saw a few spots on Wednesday evening that looked like bug bites and then a few blister like places on her head. I was suspicious and called the advice nurse and then when she woke up Thursday morning she had spots all over! Poor thing hasn't felt too bad, but has started itching today. She gets so upset when I tell her not to scratch. She hasn't run a fever, but didn't sleep too well last night and finally just fell asleep for a nap today.

Here are a couple of pictures from when she was getting ready to go to a birthday play date on Wednesday. I felt horrible because I had to let all of the moms know that they had been exposed to chicken pox. She didn't have any symptoms that morning and I had no idea she had been exposed. Guess I don't have to worry about the chicken pox vaccine at her two year appointment! She is so cute pointing to her spots and saying "pox, owie, itch." Hopefully it will be over soon and won't get much worse.
