Not so fun summer

So... Ethan and Eva have 5ths disease and I am not sure yet I'd Jacob has it or not. If you have not heard of 5ths before it is a virus that affects your immune system. If your healthy you basically just get a rash but if you have poor immune systems or are expecting it can be dangerous to your health. So, we have been home bound for the past two weeks and it looks as though it will be about another 1 to 2 weeks more. If Jacob gets it too it will be even longer. I am hoping that he doesn't get it.

Once it is in the rash stage it is no longer contagious but the rash is gross and covers most of your body. It's not itchy or anything, just icky looking.
