Vacation thus far...

Roseola...ugh. J is infected and it has been miserable. Hamptons are not equal to relaxation for the moment. It all started the night we got here with him developing a fever of 102. Scary! It made for a very long cranky night, which in turn turned into 4 cranky kids...not just one. We have quarantined J until his symptoms subside, because we certainly don't need 3 others sick in the week that we have left. He still has a pretty miserable looking rash, although his fever broke last night.

G is having a blast playing with her cousins and uncles and aunts in the sand and in the pool. It is so cute to watch her interact with everyone. She is a mama's girl through and through but she has really taken to my cousin Todd. They are buddies and he is so good to her. His wife Lora is expecting, due in November.

Kiddo's include G (1 year), J (4 mo), N&V (3 mo) and then cousins Ava (3 years), Ella (2 years), Blake (7 years), Hannah (6 mo), Tomas (18 mo), Luisa (4 years) and Gus and Benjamin are 5 year old twins. We have had a blast comparing multiples stories with Miles (cousin) and Savannah (his wife). It only seems to get crazier....is that even possible??

K and I have truly enjoyed the vacaton time, despite J being sick. Mom took him for a few hours this afternoon and we had some great couple time, cuddling in the hammock. I think we would both agree that we do miss the alone time that we used to get....but that we can't imagine our lives without our brood.

More vacation stories soon. Time for a walk.
