Giant hives, and some Rendezvous Fun!

So, last night when I was putting on Ashie's pj's I noticed she had some little hives on her belly. I thought I'd just watch and check them in the morning. This morning when I changed her buns, I about passed out, the little hives had turned into enormous hives, and were all over her belly, under her arms, and in her diaper area. This is what they looked like when I first saw them this morning...

I called and got her an appointment with the Doctor, but it wasn't for a couple of hours. By the time we got to the Dr.'s office, they had spread to her neck, shoulders, and some were starting on her arms. The ones that had been there before had kind of just become one enormous hive. She is obviously allergic to something, but what, we are not sure. The only thing different she has eaten lately were some strawberries. Other than that, no changes in any of our soaps, and she's been outside in the grass many times, so the Dr. didn't think that was it. No more strawberries for her. After a dose of Zyrtec, and an afternoon nap, they are almost completely gone. Crazy stuff!!

I took some quick pics of the kiddos before they left for the rendezvous last night. I knew I wasn't feeling up to going, and I did decide to send the camera with Hunter Dan, but he didn't get very many photos. I was glad I got these shots before they left.

Bug in his student council shirt, he looks quite handsome I think, and far too grown-up for my taste. It's hard to believe that my baby boy will be twelve this fall.

My sweet little Lexlee, she kept complaining that the sun was in her eyes, but I am mean, and made her suffer through the pics...:-)

Jibbity, she had driven me nuts asking how many hours, minutes, and seconds until the rendezvous. She was not in the mood for snapshots, she just wanted to get there!

Ashie stayed home with me, this is her playing peek-a-boo, she thinks it is the best game ever. She is NOT cooperative with picture taking!!

My three oldest munchkins ready to get to the carnival...

A half-way decent photo of all of them.

Jibbity riding the train(they had games, food, those big blow-up jump things, a rock wall, and the train) Jibbity asked when we put her to bed last night, "How long is it until next years carnival?"

Bug sitting in the dunk tank. The next photo is after Lexlee had gotten the silent wink from her teacher to run up and hit the target.

They had a super fun night! Next year we can ALL go...but with another little munchkin! I can't wait!

Have a FaNtAsTiC weekend!!!:-)
