Reagan's first field trip and Grant's illness

Reagan had her first field trip on the 20th to Honeysuckle Hill Farm for pumpkin picking. I planned on meeting them at the farm after I dropped Grant off at his school. When Grant woke up that morning his face on one side was all red and rashy like, but I didn't think anything about it because he sleeps on the floor behind his door a lot and I thought it was from rubbing his face on the ground. When I got to his school though I took him to the bathroom and pulled up his sleeves to wash his hands and noticed the rash on his arm. After talking to the director I decided not to leave him. This meant I had to take him to the farm with me. He wanted to stay at school and was mad that we left, which translated into a grouchy kid on the way home. Scott called the dr and they wanted to see him. He had something called fifths disease which is essentially a cold followed by a rash. He wasn't contagious anymore and now the rash is gone, but it can come back anytime in the next 5 weeks. He may have just had a mild reaction to the virus though. Lets hope!

Reagan had a great time on her field trip. This was Reagan's first bus ride and she was pretty nervous about getting down the stairs.

They tried to teach them about how bees pollinate. I don't know that they understood it at all.

We went on a hayride with her friend Max.

And had lunch with her friend Jillian.

They had a playground there and the kids had a great time on the seesaws.

Grant is such a big boy and was climbing all over the place.

We did a lot of things with Reagan's friend Josie and her mom, which I like. My camera battery died though so this was all the pictures I got. They had a lot of fun, but mommy was exhausted and ready for a nap when we got home. Actually all of us took a pretty good nap and daddy had to wake us up when he got home.
