Here's a few "back to school" pic's:
Keelyn's started 4th grade, Ryley is in 2nd. It is great now they are at the same school! Delaney is in her 2nd year of preschool. Addy, wishes she could join Delaney! Maybe next year.
So, we went to Gregg lake in Antrim last week.. Delaney was sitting on the blanket after swimming for a while.. all of a sudden she starts SCREAMING.. she had a leech on her leg! blood dripping from it. I guess I'd be pretty freaked out if it was on me too... Not long after that, Addy and I are sitting on the couch and I notice this TINY spot on the back of her arm, almost near her armpit. I take a closer look and realize it is a tick!!! UGH.. DEER TICK.. LYME. I was too afraid to take it off since it was so small, so I took her in to the Dr. who took it off and recommended I put her on amoxicillan for 2 weeks. Which I easily did since a) it was a deer tick b) there was redness where it was attached c) it HAD to have been there for a few days since we weren't around bushes or tall grass for the last 4 days (when we went blueberry picking) and lastly if I didn't treat her.. have you heard the horror stories of Lyme going UNDETECTED??? Better to be safe than sorry, in my opinion!
Jack was in Ohio last week, this week Detroit... HE BETTER BE HOME for a while.. it is really affecting the girls. Poor Ryley was sobbing this morning asking "WHEN IS HE COMING HOME" :-( - although I think a trip to Israel is right around the corner!
Lastly, my cousin Patricia and I were talking about going to Fla. I mentioned since my girls NEED NOTHING for Christmas, it would be a great opportunity to go this year for Christmas. Well, as sweet as she is.. she booked her time share Dec. 12-19 for ALL OF US TO GO. YAHOO... built in babysitter :-)... just kidding! The girls are super super excited.
Well, I still need to take advantage of Addy sleeping, so I have to run!
