<\/a> Well, we’ve finally been initiated into the world of lice. I have to say, we\u2019ve been fairly lucky \u2013 three kids and this is our first infestation.<\/p>\nI picked up Chayton from his camp around 3pm \u2013 once they found them; I had to get him right away. I then called camp and had the girls checked out. Boy was I hoping that Nazeriah wouldn\u2019t have any (yikes, combing out her hair???) and Kaija had a sleep-over to go to, so was really hoping it wouldn\u2019t be her.<\/p>\n
Of course, Kaija has them, too. (Check out their olive oil hair-dos.)<\/p>\n
She was so upset, not only was it her late night at camp but she was having a sleep-over with her BFF (since they were 18 months old). Sigh. Camp handled it great \u2013 giving her a camp hat to cover her head (and putting it up in a pony-tail) and reassuring her that it would really be okay.<\/p>\n
I think Nazeriah is relieved that she is spared, but I also think she wishes she had them \u2026 never one to be left out of the \u201chot\u201d thing! But she is off to camp today, yea!<\/p>\n
Chayton and Kaija have been shampooed, picked through, olive-oiled up and this morning picked through again. I really don\u2019t know what I am doing \u2013 so hope I\u2019m doing something right! Have to say the olive oil made it much easier to go through their hair \u2013 in case you are wondering, it\u2019s a great conditioner and gets tangles out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
