Gross and Disgusting

So this past Monday I was diagnosed with Hand/Foot/Mouth virus. But unfortunately it's all in my mouth. It's quite possibly the worst thing I've ever had to deal with. I have sores on my lips, gums, cheeks, tongue and back of my throat. It hurts to breathe, drink, and swallow. It hurts to eat, which I thought would be a bonus and I could drop a few pounds, but no. The things I can eat are ice cream, pudding, etc. Basically it sucks.
I thought you could only get this disease if you touched someone with an open sore, but no! It's transferred through the air just like the common cold!! My doctor said I probably got it from a shopping cart or something! So word to the wise, use those wipes to clean the handles!

The Perfect Storm

Today we took Peanut to see Santa. It was a Breakfast with Santa event and there were a lot of people there and a lot of people talking to Maya. She didn't really care for that. And it was around nap time AND she has a tooth coming in. So you can probably guess how things went, right? As Franklin set her down on Santa's lap she let out a glass shattering scream. I guess a room full of strangers, being tired and teething created the perfect storm and Santa should have been avoided. Below the pictures speak louder than words:

Still happy, next in line to see Santa.

Screaming, crying and jumping off Santa's lap.
