Somehow I got poison ivy on my NECK. Careful.

Oof. We’ve got until June 11th. I have a list a mile long of things I need to get done before I can’t get anything done for the summer 😅

The other night at school they had a family heritage night, where people got to set up display tables with info and food etc of different countries. It was really cool to see so many different places represented just at our local elementary school! And the best part was that there was a fashion show, which Munchkin participated in and she rocked it. She wore her new hanbok and was just beaming. I’m keeping the memory of her smile and self/confidence with me forever.

Oh no!!! Well my mom moved in with us for almost 6 weeks, so that’s how I did it 😬 But also: leaning on friends and neighbors for help watching kids, using the laundromat’s wash/dry/fold service, grocery delivery, and lowering my standards. Oh and I hired someone to come over after dinner to do the dishes and tidying up Monday-Thursday. She’s amazing and I love her so much and I’m not up until 10 doing everything.

It’s so wild. #2’s kindergarten class starts their 26 last days of school countdown tomorrow (every day is themed to a letter of the alphabet). I’m not ready!

This is good info, thank you. We were able to get an appointment with a new allergist today actually and I'm definitely going to ask about getting a nebulizer for home. I don't know why I didn't think about the saline nasal spray but going to pick that up ASAP.

He doesn’t. We’re seeing his allergist next week and I’ll definitely ask about that.

Poor #2’s allergies have been so, so bad. Our normal springtime medicine routine is Xyzal & Flonase every day, and inhaler as needed. Well yesterday and today that combo was not cutting it. I ended up having to pick him up from school and take him to the ER. I wasn’t feeling scared until they whisked us right to a room, do not pass go, do not collect $200. After a steroid and a nebulizer he was doing a ton better. But after an hour at home he was coughing again. More inhaler and he’s coughing less but it’s not calmed down like it was at the hospital. I really hope the pollen calms down soon.
