I'm getting a stick with a little bit of hot on it!

We were role playing today and BB made me a birthday cake..... He needed the above to light the candles!

Yaaaaawn

Posting this at 1:30 am having just been up again to poor LL! He has overwhelmingly trumped his brother on the pox front- I think he has as many on his face and scalp alone than his brother had on his torso! He is scratching up a frenzy- and whereas the ailment turned his stroppy teenager ten years before his time brother into a placid little angel, he has no clue what is happening to him, and feels mighty sorry for himself. He's off his food and spends all his time wanting hugs and howling loads.... And here was me thinking I'd been let off lightly- wondering what all the fuss was about. Oh and James- we didn't get round to counting BB's today- I may have to revert to photographic evidence for the task as he's healing quickly!

Now there's one you can't kiss better...

Poor BB has just awoken howling (again), but I wasn't expecting the reason to be ' my willy hurts' ........
hmmm a gentle ' there there' and a stroke of the hair was the most I could do on this occasion!

I'm wondering if I should start a pox top trumps - LL's suspect spots yesterday are most definately of the same ilk as BB's now...

LL started the day with a blinder- one right on the tip of his willy! BB clawed back with some on the soles of his feet - no getting away from those ones unless you spend the day horizontal, but I think his wee brother trumped this evening when he also popped some on his soles! Willy and soles wins over bollocks and soles I think, but all you men out there can feel free to correct me on this!

Talent Envy!!

My eyes are green - check out these amazing pics of the boys - all from an impromptu visit to my brother's today. Can you see why K is branching into this professionally???

Poxtastic!

Well finally after lots of trying to get BB infected with the dreaded chickenpox by dragging him to play with anyone we heard was infected) he's gone and managed to catch it of his own accord... Well done him! And we don't have a clue where either....
In retrospect it started with a pluke on his bum, which I'd clocked but thought nothing of, but it actually only got picked up when BFS mentioned a 'skin tag' which had appeared on his neck on Sunday morning. He pointed it out to me at bedtime, which is when I noticed all the other spots! I went and grabbed a bottle of piriton and poured some down his throat. He did wonder why he was getting 'medcine' but I told him it was for his cough ( which he didn't actually have- but totally bought the story!) it appears to have done the trick and I had a spaced out almost scratch free boy for a couple of days....he has gotten itchier, but nothing that he's complained excessively about - which is pretty impressive considering he has spots on his lower eyelids, on his bollocks and even in the crack of his bum. It even made me cringe! I have been keeping him distracted with some gardening and trips to the park, but the rain came this afternoon and is due to stay for a few days- that combined with the fact that LL definitely had a few suspect spots on his torso today makes me think I may be in for a rough few days.....
