today's briefs

...

Not. Underwear. Sorry.

Day started out well with the 2 little ones climbing into bed with me for snuggles. That never happens. They wait for me to stumble out of bed and hobble downstairs to make them breakfast, glued to the tv until it happens. Perhaps they have reached the saturation point with the tv? that would be nice.

Took 'em over to a friend's house for a visit, she has a boy a few months younger than DS2. I thought we would only be there for the morning, but we didn't get home till practically 2. It was nice visit. She has such a grown-up house. Really gorgeous furniture and everything, and her DS is a such a little wild man, it is really not a good fit! LOL She does go mildly crazy.

After we picked up DS1 from school we went to Borders and hung out. It has been so long since I went with the 3 of them! DS2 was overwhelmed with the choice of books, I think. I think we all had a good time.

In other news, my g/e doc's tests did not include total IgA or IgG, and his nurse suggested I take it up with my primary care dr, so I left a message about getting the test for IgA deficiency with his nurse -- no call backs until Monday, possibly even Tuesday.

DD has been breaking out in mystery bumps for the past couple of days. They look like bug bites and itch. A little Benadryl cream and they subside. I wish I could figure out what it is. I was suspecting an allergy to the cat, but this morning she got a bump on her forehead, and there was no way she had cat contact there. I called the pediatrician's office and they were not very helpful, telling me that it was obviously some kind of allergic reaction and to put Benadryl on it and pay attention to what might be the cause... Duh. I suppose there are people out there who wouldn't know to do that, but since I had already told her that I was doing all those things, there was no point in telling me to do them, right?

Had a good talk with my sister today. Did 3 loads of laundry. Watched the rest of Spartacus. Goran Visnjic, still yummy.

Up too late... this weekend: cheer, WORK, coffee with the girls on Sunday, and DH takes DS1 to the Diamondbacks game on Sunday afternoon. It's going to go by in a flash!
