long time!

So much for blogging. Sheesh, I haven't written anything in months! Today was a long day. Got up, got the kids around, left the house and discovered that Annika had a huge bite on her ankle. Dropped off the big kids and then took Anni to see the doctor, through Granger road construction,, and then drove back to work. Doctor didn't do anything for the bite, said it should be fine with Benadryl. Worked til 7, and then got home in time to change clothes and drive to a cousin's house for the family get together. I didn't get to visit too much with anyone because I was trying to eat dinner and wrangle a tired baby, and then we had to leave early to take Anni to Medpoint to get her giant foot examined again. Drove through MORE Granger road construction and had to detour once for a giant tree limb (ahhhh these darn summer storms!) but after a half hour I got there only to learn they aren't in our insurance network so I had to pay everything out of pocket. GRRRR. Doctor barely looked at her foot before declaring she needed a shot & some sort of cream for whatever it was that bit her and then we had to wait twenty more minutes to make sure she wouldn't have a reaction to the shot. Finally got home at 11:30pm, day totally gone. Am so glad Marybeth has been cleaning our house all week because otherwise we'd be coming home to a huge mess!
