2.4 million and roseola

If you haven't heard, our friend Christian (he works with Michael) won the Colorado lottery. He won 6.7 million, took the lump sum (cut it in half) and after taxes, he ended up with 2.4 million. We're guessing he's going to quit soon. :) We're really happy for him (and a bit jealous!). We're practicing a new phrase with Olivia: "Uncle Christian," ha!

I mentioned in the last post that Olivia had a fever. The fever continued off and on through Wednesday with no other symptoms. I blamed it on teething. We went to the park with Avry and Kacy (Avry's mom) Thursday morning and when we got home, I found this:

She was COVERED in little red bumps. I pretty much lost it and drove her straight to the pediatrician. By the time we got there, they had spread to her face, arms, and legs. Despite my hysteria, the doctor took one look at her and said "Roseola!" Roseola is a pretty common childhood virus. Many children get roseola without the rash, so you never really know if they've had it or not. Olivia was one of the lucky ones that got the rash! Luckily, the rash is the "beginning of the end." She's not contagious, but I didn't want to take her anywhere with the rash. She got a little bored in the house, but found some things to keep her entertained. Like playing with the pots and pans:

Pulling all her diapers out of the basket and trying to stand on her head:

And washing Daddy's face:

We did go to the park today, so she's feeling much better!

Michael got a new saw and Olivia helped him get it set up (it's in the garage now!):

The weather was nicer this week and I took Avry and Olivia to the park:

So glad they can both still fit in one swing!

Some new items for my Etsy shop:

I made the daisy clips to match this shirt:

Love it!
