Molluscum treatment

We took Charlie-Belle to a dermatologist today to have her molluscum treated.  She told us that ot wouldn't hurt wjen she put it on and it didn't but the spots have blistered and should be gone when the swelling goes down.  Daniel had his thumb treated and says it doesn't hurt that badly but Charlie-Bellenis having a really rough evening. We're treating her discomfort with neosporin (an antibiotic ointment and pain killer) chocolate milk, cuddles and team umi zoomi.  We're hoping the annoying blisters only last a little while and that the spots will be gone for good when she heals.  We've been referred to an eye doctor who is said to sedate small children and treat the spots on their faces while they're under and don't feel the treatment.  We were quite apprehensive about it when the dermatologist first explained it, but our little princess is so upset about her blisters that it might be better to have the spots removed as she sleeps. :-/  We'll keep you all posted!

Oliver had is 5th birthday exam at the doctor yesterday. He's average weight and a little less than average height. He had 3 injections for his booster shots and we went to the zoo afterwards.

After taking Charlotte to the doctor today we went to a safe store to educate ourselves and while we were there Charlotte looked up at me and said, "I need to go pee pee". We went to the.potty and she was totally dry. She used the potty again before her nap and by bathtime had been in the same pullup all day and it was still dry. :-)
