We've got the yuckies!

Well, strep throat has hit the Baker house. I took Ethan, my 2 year old to the doctors yesterday after he broke out in hives on Sunday night. After they didn't respond to medicine and looked really angry the next day I decided it might be something serious.
They did a strep swab in the office and ran the test while we waited. It came back negative, or so they said. We went about our Tuesday as normal and saw LOTS of people. The nurse called me this afternoon and advised me that yes, he DOES have strep and will be contagious for 24 hours after starting anti-biotics. Great!
