On Pox on at Least One House

Last night the FP Gal gave DF a bath and afterward she told me that he seemed to be getting a rash. He had some vaccines last week and we were told that there was a chance that he'd have a reaction. And (poor guy) he certainly has.
I felt bad because I'd been with him all yesterday and hadn't noticed a thing. Well, let me tell you, he didn't look like this! Just look at those spots. He's almost more pox than not.
Fortunately he doesn't seem to be in bad spirits. He hasn't been itching except maybe a bit when he wakes up. He tires a little easier and needs a little more cuddling but it hasn't been bad.
The really tough thing is that we can't really take him out in public easily now. We'd hate for him to get anyone else sick. He's fine around most adults, though notably not around the FP Gal's dad. This can possibly go for as long as ten days. We're hoping that our very advanced kids can get through this more quickly though.
