Bad week for Olivia

Poor Olivia. As some of you may have seen and heard...little Olivia had a bad week last week. She's 1 going on 10 it seems and she is just into everything. Well that includes fire ant beds. I was inside feeding the baby when she found the first bed and got bit on her hands and feet. Of course it didn't bother her. Well, she apparently thought it was a fun place to play and went back for more. Ouch. She was covered in ant bites on her hands, under her arms, lower back, upper back...I even found some ants in her diaper. Thankfully she is doing better, I can still see many of the marks and where she was scratching herself. Maybe she's learned her lesson now...probably not but the ants are gone. :)

The other part of her bad week included her falling out of her crib and getting a black eye/cheek. Now she has been sleeping in a big girl bed but sometimes I will put her in her crib if she is playing at nap time. Well that day she was playing and after several attempts to make her go to sleep I finally put her in her crib. Not more than 2 minutes later I hear a loud boom from upstairs and I knew what she had done. Thankfully it was just a little bump on her cheek because it could have been so much worse!

Has she learned any lessons from the past week? Only time will tell...
 On a walk the morning of the second, brutal ant attack. :) What a cool cat!

 The morning after the ant attack.

 At Target buying benadryl and children's itching cream.

 Vicious fire ants...I didn't get pictures of the other areas...they didn't look as bad...they were definitely welted up though. This was a more concentrated area of bites...the others were spread out.

Shortly after her attempt at breaking out of her crib. Notice the bruise on her left cheek/eye area.
