They are about 90% gone now, but they reared their ugly head all over my body Wednesday morning and benedryl did nothing but mock me. It was not a fun week at my house. Ok, ok, enough about me....Someone had a birthday :) She even had catwoman show up for her special day!;) We also made it to one of Alycia's playoff soccer games. unfortunately, I forgot the bigger lens, so I only got pictures of the fans. After seeing grandad and mommy yell, Cayleigh decided to outdo us!! What else have I missed...? OH! Cayleigh painted for the first time with watercolors. She loved it! We visited with Sam and Linda yesterday and as always, Cayleigh had a blast running after their...
