Day 312 - Here we go again...


We had a visit to the doctor today with Olivia after a night of fevers and a fairly unsettled time. Before the visit I discovered that the girls also had headlice, what a great double to have. So a trip to the chemist not only for medicine but Tea Tree Oil and headlice shampoo. Makes me itchy just thinking about it!

Day 134 - The dreaded naughty Itchies.



When we have children, we are given a bag of goodies once they are born. I think they should start including headlice remover.

I thought that we'd have heaps of time before I needed to invest in shares in one of these companies. However I have been proven wrong. The girls have had a case of the dreaded headlice once before from what only I can assume is daycare. I noticed Olivia scratching at her head last night while sleeping so I put it in my memory bank to have a look this morning. What a treat I found! Many little naughty itchies - which is what I am telling the girls to say while encouraging them to sit still while we are tying to comb their hair through. Not an easy feat when Ava already hates having her hair brushed on a good day! We placated her with an apple and television two of her favourite things and it seemed to work.

Needless to say, after a very itchy day, Shane and I also indulged in a little headlice treatment tonight. I guess here starts the beginning of a very long prevention and treatment of headlice in our house.

Now, it is time to buy some shares I think.
