Alergies

Don't fall over cuz I did two posts in a row...

These cute boys of mine suffer from allergies.  I know how miserable my brother and I were growing up so today I took them to see an allergist. He took one look in their noses and said, "yep they have allergies."  He gave me a nasal spray and told me to keep giving them children's Claritin.  He also said to come back in 2 weeks for the results of some blood work he would like to run.  So we went to the lab and I felt like the worst mom EVER because I had to hold them down while this lady took some of their blood.  I was so proud of how brave they both tried to be.  Corbin kicked the lady in the shins while she was doing Conner, defending him against her.  I hate it when my kids cry and have to go through hard things.  It makes me ever so grateful for a loving father who has had to endure more heartache than I can even imagine.  It makes me want to say thank you in so many ways.  Hopefully we can figure out what they are allergic to and hope that I can always help them.
