On April 5th and 6th, Alli complained that her head hurt and she didn't feel great . . .
But she was running around playing and acting goofy so we didn't think much of it.
Monday morning I got her up and in the shower, which she LOVES
but within minutes she wanted out.
That was the tip off that she might really not feel well - yep, temp of 103.5. Back in PJs she went.
We still had to take Eli to school and Luke to gymnastics so off we went in the car.
At gymnastics, Luke started sobbing that his tummy hurt so we left.
We had an hour before Eli was done with school so we got Alli in for a haircut.
That's when our "fun" really began - the hairdresser found lice :(
Thankfully, she was extremely kind and finished the cut.
We picked up Eli early and drove to Lice Knowing You on Mercer Island to have the whole family checked. Praise God, it was only on Alli, who was such a trooper during the treatment.
When she was done with her treatment, we drove to Barbie Gramma's so the kiddos could play there while I went home to sterilize the house ~ my washer and dryer have never been so busy!!!
Thankfully, when she went back to Lice Knowing You for her followup check, she was clear.
Expensive but the ONLY way I would handle a lice situation :-)
We were so lucky as Alli had a very mild case.
We found out later, at least one other child in her class had it too.
Praise God that we made it through that itchy situation!!!
