Bug Bites and Sprinklers...summer is almost here

As I am catching up on my blog, it is hard to believe how fast these days are going by. We were anxiously waiting for summer and now it is close to the end of July already!

We found out last summer that Bella's body does not respond well to mosquito bites but we got another big reminder before the best of those summer days approached this year.

Swollen, red, hot to touch, and "it hurts". All is better now and we happily have had no more reactions, as we take a proactive approach with a little Zyrtec a day to keep those crazy bug bites away.

First sprinkler set up of the year. Bella loving it.

This was a thrill to see since last summer her feet never touched the ground. Happy to watch her running and smiling.

Figuring out the best way to go about this

Two happy wet girls. Think I can keep this on the list of things to do this summer.
