The other night we set out on an adventure to the mall.
It was time for the annual visit to Santa with an added bonus of petting actual reindeer. It was a great evening – the boys told Santa what they wanted:
Of course, as you know, they are not sitting on Santa’s lap because you had to get a picture package to get to do that. And we were not going to pay that much just to sit on his lap. (Santa got sacked after that night because of so many complaints).
Ben asked for a bow (as in a bow & arrow) and Alec asked for a double barrel marshmallow shooter (you’ll shoot your eye out kid).
The boys got to pet the reindeer and we all went to dinner.
It was such a nice fun night.
The next morning…
several days worth of hives. Of course I freaked out when I saw this- it was all over his body. I thought it was flea bites at first. But after a remote consultation (thanks Dr. Bob) it seemed more hive like. We still have no idea why…but are choosing to blame the reindeer for no other reason than that was the only thing different introduced in Alec’s life. Several days later and doubling up on Claritin and Benadryl and he finally itch free.
No more reindeer games for Alec!
