Mosquitoes are up by about 800% this year--no joke. It's like a rain forest in our backyard. Evanston has been named "Tree City USA" for the last 20 years and with record rains, ridiculous trees and a park across the street, the mosquitoes are insane. So in true Andy fashion, he did a little Internet search and found a home remedy for the itching--put scotch tape on the bite so it helps coagulate the "wound" and therefore stops the itching. Andy is now walking around with scotch tape all over his arms and legs. Great way for us to make a good impression with our neighbors and meet some new friends! And he's passing on the weird practice...Conor woke up this morning and said: I've got bites, I need tape.

Conor after a time out this morning: "Maybe a dragon will come and burn Daddy because he's not being nice. And I think maybe I need a special treat."
this entire post has me cracking up!
ReplyDeleteTry tumeric on the bites..it immediately stops the bleeding...and Andy's skin will turn orange
