Amoxicillin

So met for coffee and cinnamon buns in park with friends this AM. Had Chance on my lap, he ate his cinnamon bun and drank his milk, then scampered off to play, that is when I realized my white pants had a coffee stain on the thigh. Then realized that the same coffee stain was on Chance's bum. Not coffee. Poop.

Cam changed Chance and then discovered a rash on his tummy and back. Another side effect in addition to the diarrhea (and in reality, Chance has basically been on a liquid diet since this heat wave hit, he just drinks juice, water and milk, occasional chunk of bread and cheese, watermelon, etc., so maybe the amoxicillin is not entirely to blame. But the rash is definitely a side effect of the drug, but not harmful, according to pharmacy pamphlet.

Other than that, Chance is feeling fine. Cam and I finished the north gate this afternoon while Chance slept, it looks and works great.

Dinner was grilled chicken smokies for Mom and Dad, Chance thoroughly enjoyed his hot dog, pasta salad, cheese, bun, milk and chocolate pudding. First time he really ate all day, but he had a huge meal. We have been enjoying our patio set at dinner time, eating outdoors is one of my favorite things about the summer.
