Today's park outing has been postponed on account of a doctor's appointment. Spencer has had a rash on his chest, back and groin for a few days now. It hasn't been bothering him. He isn't itchy, running a fever or having any change of appetite. Since the rash just doesn't seem to be going away though, we paid a visit to our pediatrician today. She confirmed that it just appears to be prickly heat. Spencer has always been a hot blooded little boy. He can be in a deep sleep but if Mommy or Daddy put his blanket over him at night, more than likely he will push it off himself without even rolling over. The doctor suggested using a antibacterial soap for his baths but otherwise to just dress him cool and do nothing different than what we are doing.
As soon as we finished at the doctors office we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa's house. Before the boys took their naps and Mommy went across the street to do more painting, we watched the show that was going on. There is an American Elm tree on the corner of the lot of our new house. Apparently it went to Europe on vacation because it is suffering from Dutch Elm disease. Since the tree is located in a spot where it is the Village's responsibility, they decided to cut it down and today was the day! We sat on the stoop in front of Grandma and Grandpa's house and had front row seats for the process!
