All Clear For Now

Lennon's rash wasn't any worse this morning so for now we are going ahead and assuming that both kids are well.  One thought I had was that possibly Lennon is getting my bodies antibodies to the virus right now since he is still nursing.  I have no idea if that's true or not, but I know it works that way with other stuff.  Supposedly from the skin to skin contact you get when you are nursing your body develops antibodies to anything that the baby might have and then the baby gets them through the milk.  Also if you are exposed to something at the same time as the baby it works in sort of the same way.  I am going to run that past my doctor and see what he says, but for now I will at least worry a little less cause it seems like it might make sense.  

On another note, Mia and Lennon are starting to be soo cute together.  He will just toddle over to her and bury his head in her and give her the biggest hug ever.  She is loving it and has remarked several times recently how much she loves having a brother.  Yesterday she said, "I'm so glad we have Lennon.  Aren't you?  I prayed and prayed for a sister, but at least I got a brother.  And he is so cute!"
