3 Splurges for ME

It's tax time and most of my money is going towards our Disney vacation but... I should get something for me.  I work hard and being a mommy isn't an easy job, especially lately.

Little Pierce broke his arm last week Tuesday.  He was wrestling with his brothers and pillow fighting and I think fell on it.  I say think because we got a couple of different versions of what happened from our 7 year old.  So a quick trip to the Pediatric Emergent Care, and he got a splint. Well, lets just say that splint didn't stand a chance.  It was unwrapping the next morning.  Luckily, mo works with Surgeons and was able to get him in for a cast the next day.  He picked red like Spider-Man (no surprise) and he was SO brave.  He didn't cry once and he had to have his arm manipulated and have more x-rays.  And from a mom standpoint when the Doctor said I can give him a cast that can get wet - Hallelujah!!!  Here is little man :
Then on Sunday the baby, who I should probably stop calling the baby because he is 2.5, had a serious allergic reaction.  Covered and I mean covered in hives.  He looked like Shrek, his face was so swollen and his lips.  When he started coughing I knew we had to go.  

So another trip to the same place to see the same Doctor and get some epinephrine.  Which is no fun!  First they get a shot with a big needle in their leg and then the jitters set in.  Reid was shaking, restless, couldn't sit still just whined and whined.  And by the end of it I was ready to WINE too - get it!  Thankfully, he is OK.  I have no idea what the reaction was to but we will be having allergy testing done soon.  And hopefully it won't be anything major like milk or eggs.  

So back to the Splurge part right!?!  This girl bought some new Kate Spade shades, Tory Burch sandals and a new pair of Paige jeans.  

I figured I deserved it after the week I had :)
