Kai vs Koen vs Spots

I wonder if it's because Koen has such sensitive skin but man, he has it (Hand Foot Mouth Disease) way worse than Kai. Kai has maybe 30 blisters total on his feet hands and torso. Koen has at least 200 spots (that become blisters) on each foot and they are all over his entire body. He has masses of open blisters all over his arms and legs. Under his diaper, he is covered everywhere. My poor little Bubba. It makes me teary eyed looking at him! He is doing pretty well considering, just grumpy and not sleeping. His skin is so sensitive so this is really doing a number on him.
(back of his leg)

Thank goodness we had him vaccinated for chicken pox because I can only imagine what that would've done to him. We went to the beach today and just went way out where no one else was. The boys are so bored. Kai had to watch the neighbour boys on their new slip and slide yesterday and couldn't play with them:(
So I bet everyone wants to come over for a playdate now hey?! If you are reading my blog for the first time, I`m sorry you started with this post:)

  1. Ryen just had hand, foot and mouth too and it was gross. Then it cleared up and now he has some other viral skin rash. Seriously? What's with these kids? It seems like Ryen gets everything that anyone within a 10 foot radius of him has.

    Poor kids.
