  • Saturday Silliness

    It was Jamari’s birthday today and action packed.

    We woke up and gave him pressys, and daddy made blueberry waffles for breaky.  They were NUMMY!

    We then headed to Neah Bay where we snacked on Jelly Belly’s and Doritoes, and toured the Neah Bay museum, and watched some amazing waves crash.  I’m gonna share pictures of that tomorrow, plus a video.

    For a very late lunch we had homemade hamburgers with onion soup mix in them.  Rainee had bbq sauce, ketchup and mayo on hers.  She was fine all afternoon.

    For dinner we had homemade pizza, with mushrooms, pizza sauce, cheddar cheeze and bacon.  For desert we had homemade chocolate cake with snickers bars in it, and peanutbutter in the frosting–daddy was in a creative mood.  LOL

    At bedtime Rainee’s pft was only 100.  I suspect the pizza sauce, due to knowing she’s allergic to salsa.

    She ate a bowl of marshmallow maties for a bedtime snack, and within five minutes was in bad distress, and breaking out in hives.  We spent from 7:15 until 9;45 getting her under control.  The only good news in this story is the marshmallow maties are ALL gone, and can’t be eaten again.   And she came to us before she was hyperventaling, so no hysteria to go with the asthma.

    We rescued her with both albuterol and atrovent at 7:15, and did a second dose of albuterol at 7:30.  At 8:15 we gave her benadryl.  She just snuggled with us on our bed and watched tv.  At 8:45 we talked her into getting into the tub hoping it would distract her, and help the itches.  She came out at 9 still miserable, and stayed with until she announced about 9:30 or 9:45 that she was “ok”.

    She’s in her room chatting quietly with her sisters, and I suspect going to fall asleep sometime soon. 

    On other news we watched Up as a family tonight.  VERY VERY funny, and quite cute.

  • You finally made me curious enough to google marshmallow maties : ) .  Aha, now I understand what you are talking about.

    Mmmmmm, those meals sounded delish!  So did Rob just add a crushed snickers bar to the batter before baking it?  And did he add peanut butter to regular chocolate icing?  Now I want to make a chocolate cake!

  • Marshmallow maties are only in our house about 2x a year as a major treat LOL.  Cause mommy admits *blush* to liking sugar cereal once and awhile.  

  • Heehee.  Sugar cereals are a treat in our house for summer time vacations.  Mostly because Nicole can’t sit still after eating them (well, and the health factor and cost).  She actually chose not to eat them on vacation this summer on days that we were traveling all day because she knew how she’d feel and she is making the connection on her own that too much sugar makes her feel horrible and out of control.  For me and the rest of the kids we LOVE the occasional sugar cereal.  I love it dry and eaten like a snack.

  • Happy Birthday to Jamari! I hope he had a wonderful time!
