Bitter Sweet

We spent the morning washing last minute items and packing Braden's suitcases.
He was kins of quiet all morning and on the way to the MTC. I am sure he was excited and anxious at the same time.
Drop off was quick but not painless.  They had a few men directing traffic and welcoming us, asking us who we were dropping off.  We then pulled over to the curb where we were meet by missionaries. Opening doors for us, and helping with luggage. They gave us enough time for hugs and a quick hug and they whisked him away.  It has been a bitter sweet day for me. Joy and tears.-posted by mom.

Allergies!!!

I have decided that the doctors really don't know what they are talking about when it comes to allergies.

They told me I could try the drops that go under your tongue, if I wanted. The problem, they aren't as affective and insurance doesn't cover them.  They also gave me a new nasal spray to help the swelling-it seems to be working, why didn't they give this to me years ago? And did you know that you can take double or more the amount of antihistamine? They never told me that one either, until I was on the shots. 

Also, now that I took the shots for 9 months and quit, my body has decided it doesn't like things that I wasn't allergic to before.  I went out and cut the ground cover way back in front of the house. I wore gloves because they drip this white, milky, sticky stuff. Sometimes I end up with a few itchy bumps. This was what I got this time. Yes, blisters and bumps-very itchy- benadryl is my friend.

Really? I can tell summer is going to be a challenge.

Twins

I went to the store to spent my gift certificate- I bought some new pants. And couldn't resist buying Hope and Baelie matching outfits that were on sale.
