The craziness (part 1)

It all seemed to start approximately three weeks ago. The kids and I went to McKinney, TX to help take care of Kayla's cousin (Jonah) for a couple of days. We arrived on Tuesday to pick Jonah up from daycare. Jonah and Kayla were so excited to see one another. The two stayed up until nearly midnight playing and laughing. The next day we ALL took a trip to the hospital to see Aunt Monda (Jonah's mother). We had a really good time visiting and watching the kids run around acting crazy. After the hospital visit, I promised the little ones ice cream and the park. Well an hour later and after breaking up several two year old temper tantrums, I knew it was time to head back to the house. So for you might seem all is well. Everything is going great. Well, about an hour after getting back to the house, Kayla broke out in whelps from head to toe. Nothing seemed to help. Pour thing was miserable all night. The next morning after dropping Jonah off at daycare, I took Kayla to the emergency care clinic. They gave her a some medicine and a steroid prescription. The steroid prescription seemed to help the rash and the swelling for about a 12 hour span and the next 12 hours until the next dosage was torture. Friday night was the worse. We headed home Friday and when we arrived home, poor Kayla was bleeding in spots that she had scratched so much. I felt horrible. What could be causing the rash? Well thankfully Friday night was the worse of the rash. Slowly, it got better and by Monday morning it was gone. Overall, the week with Jonah was great. Kayla and Christian had a good time seeing Jonah, Uncle Josh, Aunt Monda and Riley. I enjoy watching the two cousins play together (and soon Christian will be in the mix and then Meredith). It reminds me of the fun times I had growing up with my cousin.
