Late Thursday Ava broke out in a rash from head to toe. She was not feeling well and only slept while one of us held her. Ava woke up on her birthday with the rash that looked 10 times worse than the night before. We took her to the doctor and found out it was Roseola. It is a virus that causes a bad rash and makes you miserable. The rest of the day Ava felt terrible and screamed and cried. We spent the day snuggling on the couch and refueling her with Tylenol and Ibuprofen just so she could relax. Ava didn't sleep much because she was so uncomfortable.
Ava was happy for about 5 minutes at the doctors when she could play in the mirror.

Since Ava was feeling terrible and we were exhausted I didn't get to make her a cake. On the way home from the doctor we bought some doughnuts and that was Ava's first birthday cake...so sad. I did promise to make Rich and Ava birthday cakes when we are feeling better.
Ava didn't eat much of her doughnut. She played with it for a few minutes and then threw it to Luca.

I'm so sorry you guys. This reminded me of when Parker had head to toe eczema and she would get a heat rash on top of it! Fortunately for us she was used to the itchiness and could sleep through it.
You guys are such patient parents. Give Ava a hug for us. Parker understands her pain.
