Polka dots and spots

Today started out great!  Max woke up happy, which is always a good sign for the day.  He had a bit of redness between his eyebrows, which looked like a bug bite and/or sunburn; both would be logical explanations.

We made pancakes...

We went to Target...

But after camp Max had some more redness and bumps, so we made a doctor appointment and went to Michaels for some "polka dot" markers.  Max automatically gravitates to anything sports-related, so of course he spotted the most sporty thing in the arts and crafts store.  "I need this because I am good!" he said, but settled for his markers.

While we waited for the doctor, Max discovered that mommy has spiders in her ears.  Thank goodness she went to see the doctor! The doctor said that Max is having an allergic reaction to an antibiotic he finished a few days ago.  Unfortunately it is the one that tastes yummy, but from now on we know to stay away.

All of that running around knocked him out!

We went to Chick fil A for dinner to distract Max from the red dots that were taking over his body.  The doctor assured us that he was not contagious, which mommy quickly conveyed to everyone who glanced Max's way.

He had a great time with the balloon man...

But Kira hated the balloons!  Now she is up to two dislikes- avacados and balloon creatures.  Such a short list for such a sweet girl.

Ice cream and mum mums for dessert

Max could not wait to use his polka dot markers, which is ironic considering that by bedtime his body was covered in polka dots!!!  He took an oatmeal bath, got [unwillingly] covered in anti-itch lotion, and guzzled Benadryl, so hopefully he gets some relief tonight.
