Uninvited Guests

I haven't blogged in a while and I have a good reason...

LICE!

Run for your lives!!!!!!!!!!!

Ick.

Ok, so right after mother's day weekend Kenzie comes home and tells me that her friend Abigail has lice. Lovely, I cringed. I checked her head daily, and saw nothing. The end of school comes up and Abigail wants to have a sleepover for her birthday, great! So, Kenzie spends the night there. Not 3 days after, she starts scratching and there the little boogers are!

So we do a lice treatment on both M & M. I do heat treatments and cleaning on all stuffies, blankets, pillows, mattresses, throw pillows, ect. A week later (which was yesterday) we found 2 lice in Maddie's head and a ton of nits in Mack's and MINE!

So, my mom spent the day doing lice treatments on me and the girls. All beds have been stripped for heat treatments and cleaning. Deja Vu anyone?

Ugh, I REALLY hope they're gone now.

I'm afraid to say this so... I really hope Howard doesn't get it. He has a LOT of body hair and o.m.g. Say it ain't so?!

  1. I hope the Listerine works for you. I am so paranoid about lice. The girls get a shampoo/conditioner with tea tree oil at least once a week.

  2. When I was in the 5th grade my sister caught lice and my mother immediately went INtotheSANE trying to get rid of it. She was so freaked out she threw all of our bedsheets away, washed our stuffies and then sent them to some dry cleaner place, LOL.
    I never caught them, luckily, but that didn't stop my mother from combing through my super mega thick, frizzy, curly hair with that teeny tiny nit comb for a good 10 hours.
    Based on that experience, I plan on setting myself on fire if I ever get lice. I hope the lice are dead and gone! How very unfun for you guys. :(
