Teething Pains?

As it turns out, Mateo's fevers weren't a symptom of his teething, but a symptom of a virus. We didn't find out until Tuesday afternoon when he came home with his face and back covered in a red rash. So Wednesday morning Ric took him to the doctor, who diagnosed him with Fifths Disease / Roseola. It's a "common" childhood virus that is fairly harmless. He really had the toddler ickies for about 5-6 days. It really was pitiful to witness. Although, I did enjoy all the cuddling. Happily, he's back to his usual jovial self : )
