What a week!!

This has been such a busy week already, I don't know where to start. It's only Wednesday and we've already had more going on here in three days than we normally do in a month!

On Monday, Labor Day, we had a fantastic BBQ at our house with all of our good friends. The weather was perfect and the food was even better..lol. It was so great to see all of the little ones playing together and having such a great time. The big kids had just as much fun playing the Wii and Red-Neck Golf.

On Tuesday, I took Holly to the allergist. She was tested for just about every kind of allergy known to man (except for foods). She tested positive for everything except dogs, feathers and dry mold. The poor girl is even allergic to cockroaches! I didn't even know that they tested for that..lol. She was not real happy with me when they had finished. She informed me that she would never be coming back to this doctor...lol. I don't blame her. I took some pictures with my cell phone if I could just figure out how to download them I will post them here so you can see the torture that I made her endure. They put her on two different nasal sprays, eye drops and steroids because her nasal cavity was completely swollen shut. My poor baby!! She itched all day yesterday because her back was just covered in hives from the testing. I will have to say that she slept all night last night, which hasn't happened in a couple weeks because she was actually able to breathe!!

Today, we have carpet installers ripping apart our entire house...lol. It's a good thing we had planned on doing this anyway because the allergist said we needed new carpet for Holly (they also told us to replace her mattress and pillow and install an air purifier on the furnace. Do these people think we are made of money...lol). But anyway, they new carpet is beautiful and I can't wait to share some pictures with you. We've needed this for about seven years now...lol. I'm just dreading when they leave because then I have the monumental task of putting everything back in all the bedrooms and living room. I'm not looking forward to that. It's like moving all over again. But I'm glad we're getting this done.

I hope that the rest of the week is nice and quiet (I'm not holding my breath though). I'm hoping to have some new layouts done and pictures to share with you later on this week. So until then, ta ta!! :)
