~~Evan and Leah turned 1 1/2 years old today! And WHAT A DAY IT WAS!!! Our morning started at 5 am (Evan waking up and then falling back asleep until 6). I had to get up anyway at 6 a.m. to get ready for garage sale shopping with my mom. LOVE THE GREAT DEALS! As I am out and about on a gorgeous Sat. morning and doing well in Winghaven's sub. sale, Greg calls to tell me that Leah has red splotches all over her body. The rash was just like Evan's allergic reaction to Penicillin. After I got home, Greg said her rash was getting worse. So, the doctor's exchange line suggested taking Leah to Urgent Care. 2 hours later in the Urgent Care center, Leah was told she was definitely allergic to cyclosporine (?)
We came home, played outside, ate dinner and then decided we would chance it by going to Lowe's at 6:30 pm at night ~ 7ish is usually bedtime. Evan, of course, started winding down at the end of our trip to Lowe's.
We tried giving Leah some of her new meds. when we got home; which did NOT go so well. She normally doesn't mind taking medicine and will willingly open her mouth for me. However, one small squirt of one medicine and she immediately ran away from me crying. We ended up getting most of the 2 medications on my shirt, her shirt, in her hair and a little in her eye. Poor baby! Gave them a bath and off to bed they went. Hopefully she will sleep well through the night. Momma needs some sleep. Momma should have gone to bed already!! 10:30?!! Where does the night go?
This doctor's visit makes it 4 in two weeks for me with the kids!! And the kids have their 18 month checkup next Friday. Anyone want to pay the next co-pay? :)

1 1/2 years old!
Happy Evan (happy it's not me with those splotches again!)
Poor Leah's legs in the morning- splotches are little red bumps
Splotches are looking more flat to skin (dinner time)
