Ely's school has had a major lice infestation!! Yuck!!!! I am hoping the colder weather has helped, but the last few weeks have been brutal. Email after email about another kid getting lice. There have been a few in Ely's class as well and one on his soccer team. As most of you know who are reading this blog, after this last summer.... I don't do bugs anymore, especially little tiny ones that can multiply in insane amounts over a very short period. With that being said, I took preventatives against lice months ago and have been using a rosemary shampoo on Ely since the summer. I really think that has helped to keep him safe. I then went a step further a couple of weeks ago and went to the Lice Squad. Yep, there is a place where you can take your child if they get lice and its called the Lice Squad. They also sell products that help prevent. So we bought a special comb and mint repel spray mist for the hair! We got to see eggs and lice while we were there (in a bowl from a patient).. gross!! And they are all brown by the way, even the eggs, not white like his pediatrician said the eggs are. Anyway, Ely told me this morning he wanted to check my hair for bugs. This was quite relaxing :) I almost fell asleep!!
