Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease...

But it only settled in their mouths-big sores (Lucy is trying her best to show you here, unsuccessfully). Porter and she have been half suffering half forgetting their way through it for 4 or 5 days now. Doctor says their is nothing for it accept popsicles and motrin. We've used both. Very likely Molly will take a turn with it some time in the next few days. Yuck.

And yes, Lucy fevered and cried through the rougher parts of the illness and STILL insisted on wearing the fairy costume, shown here, as she suffered.
