two black eyes

Last night was junior/senior prom for the high school. The teachers were invited to go and I decided that it would be a good night out for Scott and I. We got a babysitter for the boys and headed to the banquet center. It was nice to see the kids all dressed up. I shouldn't have been surprised at the fact that only one girl wore something that wasn't sleeveless, and that one girl wore a jacket to cover the sleeveless portion. It was interesting to see the young ladies trying to walk in the dresses. The majority of them walked with a selfconscious gate, shoulders stooped. Most of the girls tryed to walk in stilettos and a few tripped. There were a couple of girls that swaggered with self confidence.

We stayed for dinner, and headed out. I had thought to dance, but I was hurting. Being almost 7 months pregnant doesn't make dancing easy anyways. Dinner was okay, the food was decent except for the uncooked potatoes.

When we got to the sitters we walked in and were met with Donovan and two black eyes. He was SOOOOOOO swollen it wasn't funny. Apparently he spent quite a bit of time outside (it was near 85) and when he came in they just swelled. They gave him benedryl and when we got home he got a dosage of zyrtec. We took him to urgen care this morning instead of church (Great, our bishop is going to make ANOTHER comment about how our family seems to be sick alot lately. No duh sherlock, what with me being pregnant, Donovan and I in schools that have rampant sickenesses passing through - heck we've been told this is one of the worst seasons for the flu and allergies. Of course we're sick. We at least try to make it to sacrament meeting!!!!). The doctor gave us allergy eye drops, cingulair, and recommended we get him tested for all allergies. We will follow up with Mystie and if she doesn't then that will be one of the first things he does with us for summer vacation starting in June. Interesting how alot of the major appointments often get made during summer vacation.
