Here is Ava's happy spot. She loves to sit on/in the bathroom sink and suck on toothbrushes. I like to think of it as the beginnings of stellar oral hygiene habits. Her other new trick is climbing on the kitchen table and eating whatever is left, such as leftover cereal and milk. This also explains why she's naked most of the time, since it's just not worth it to change her clothes after the second attempt.
I had the pleasure of taking Anders to the allergist this week, since he has frequent bouts of hive breakouts. The conclusion I've come to is that he's allergic to ibuprofen and honey. The allergist wanted me to take him to the hospital to have blood work done to test his liver function and other stuff. The thing is:
Anders thrashes wildly, screams, tenses every muscle in his body and has general hysteria at the sight of needles. I sob as a team of nurses pin him down. So..... we're not doing the blood work. Is that irresponsible of me? I just don't think it's necessary. I dunno. How about we just avoid ibuprofen and honey?
In the same outing, we went to the Scout office to buy the Wolf book, which was a whopping NINE DOLLARS. We then went to the grocery store and had a grand time with the bulk candy bins. Anders was so thrilled to have his Scout book that he took it in the store with him. In his bulk candy excitement, he lost it. We had ten glorious minutes with that nine-dollar book. Arrrggh. The good news is that we got chocolate-covered cinnamon bears. In bulk. Those little suckers just slide right down.
May our weeks ahead be hive free, but full of chocolate-covered cinnamon bears. (In my tummy.) Oh, and may that Wolf book magically make its way back to us.

How are Anders hives? And did you find the Wolf book???
Also, peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies sound outrageously delish! Larry would like those WAY better than oatmeal raisin. He won't touch raisins.
