Allergist Round 2

Jake's allergies have been worse lately.  So while I was at the allergist a few weeks ago I made an appointment for Jake (not with the pediatrician - that's just for me).

They did a pollen scratch test on his back.  They said it "lit up like a Christmas tree."  So if our girls have bad allergies - it's not just my fault!  They gave him more meds and told him that he will have hay fever in the spring, summer, and fall.  Um, thanks.  And they also suggested that he have his wife mow the lawn!!!  hahahaha!  Poor Jakey.

Basically don't be surprised if most of our family fun time is indoors!

Sounds like you have the perfect excuse to hire a lawn care service! If there are any dust allergy concerns you might want to get a maid too. Oh man, now i want allergies! Or you could move to Page, Arizona where the lack of plants that can survive there makes their allergy problem nonexistent. My sneezy boys were in heaven there.

Allergies suck. :-( I had what I thought were bad allergies in Michigan and Wisconsin, but it was nothing compared to here. So let that be a lesson to you both - stay up north!

You could always get James to mow your lawn. I mean, that's not that far a drive for him from Utah...

I think that a lawn service is medically necessary! ;)

Allergies are no fun. Always hate when the list of what you're allergic to is sooooo long that it is easier to make a list of what you are NOT allergic to!
