Looks like we dodged the chicken pox (or "picky pox," as Nani has been calling them despite -- or because of? -- 30+ years of experience as a nurse and a mother). Today is day 21 of our watch, and no sign of lesions. Hopefully, the picky pox will come back again next year. I was glad not to have Alex get them this young.
No, they are called "chicken pops"!

I had several people looking for a chicken pox party when I told them about the possibility (thankfully, even the mommies at day care were thrilled at the thought of getting it over with!). I promise you if he ever gets them, you'll be amongst the first to know!
