First of all, happy birthday Patti, happy birthday Aunt Marilyn, and happy anniversary Ma and Dad!
Here's what's been going on here....
Gerard's preschool class went to the zoo last week. It's a small-ish zoo, and Gerard was disappointed that there were no lions and tigers and bears (oh, my!) He had fun nonetheless. The day started off cool and rainy, but it warmed up nicely and Gerard got to feed giraffes and goats and got a little too close to a peacock.
Then on Wednesday, Gerard had his end-of-the-year party at school. They played games and had races and got some nice certificates and a memory book from Mrs. H.
That's where the fun ended.... Instead of tee ball Friday night, we spent the afternoon and evening in the basement while the tornado sirens were sounding. No touch-downs here, but we had some pretty nasty rain and wind. Then another storm blew in today and we lost some shingles off the roof. No tornados, though.
And Saturday morning Gerard woke up with a weird rash. I thought it might have been related to the strep he had just gotten over, so we went to the doctor. It wasn't strep. He has fifth disease (not as scary as it sounds) and, totally unrelated, he has walking pneumonia. And to top it off, Morgan has a virus too. It's been a fun weekend....
Here are some pictures of Gerard showing the progression of his rash, from yesterday morning to last night to today:
That about wraps things up here. I hope everyone had a nice weekend!
