Excitement in our Home!!!

We ended in the emergency room last night with Makayla. She had a severe allergic reaction to something. Her lips were totally swollen and she had huge hives from one end of her body to the other. Her skin was terribly itchy. We have no idea what caused it. The only thing that she did different than usual was sit on the grass at a baseball game of one of her friends. When we went to pick her up it had just started. It was a little scary but she is doing just fine now. She is on meds for about 5 days and then will always have to carry an epi pen in case of another reaction. My friend Laura also suggested that we keep liquid benadryl around at all times. Kids Kids Kids.
It has been raining like crazy here in our area. It reminds of the rain in Oregon. I have been making Graduation cards and wedding cards today. I forgot how much fun this can be it has been so long since I pulled my stamps out and actually used them.
I have been driving everywhere with Makayla. She is really doing a good job of driving. I am kind of surprised.
Everyone have a great week. bye now.

WHAT?! Holy cow! I feel so bad for her (because I know how she felt!)- YIKES! I'm glad that she got it under control. I think I need an epi pen with me. I swear I find more and more things I'm allergic to ALL THE TIME! Ugh. Anyway- I'm excited to see you guys tomorrow! Love you!

Wowsers...I am glad she is alright now. What a bummer to always have to carry a epi pen. What a mystery.
