Supermoon and Underwater World

This past week was a little different....after Gavin's 2 hours at the daycare, he developed a rash and fever 2 days later. His pediatrician didn't think it was anything to be concerned about since the fever broke after one night.

Then a couple days later the rash changed a bit - instead of covering his whole body, like it was in the beginning, it faded in most areas except for his hands, legs, and feet. Also the spots got bigger and some had fluid in them. I sent pictures to his pediatrician and they think he has a mild form of hand, foot, mouth disease. Luckily he doesn't seem to have any sores in his mouth and he hasn't developed a fever again, but HFMD can last 1-3 weeks.

So instead of putting him in daycare again this week, I decided to take him out to see Underwater World which is an aquarium out in town. I figured he would enjoy getting out of the house and seeing something different! They have a nice walkway with the aquarium forming a tunnel over you, so you can watch the fish swim all over. Then you go upstairs and they have various tanks with a variety of sea life. Gavin seemed somewhat interested.

I also got a couple pictures of the Supermoon early this morning. Just had my point and shoot camera handy though, so the pictures do not do it justice. In case you didn't get to see it, here's a link to some pictures and info: Supermoon

And for fun, here are a couple pictures of Gavin after enjoying a pasta dinner. He makes SUCH a huge mess but he also REALLY loves pasta!! In the first picture, you can kind of see his two bottom teeth!
So happy!
