Scary morning! Apparently the little man is allergic to bees...

[wvasweetness]

Wes got stung for the first time this morning - by a tiny little sweat bee this morning. I didn't think it was too big of a deal - he didn't cry, only said "Mommy, the bug got me!"

But within 30 seconds he started swelling and turning red. We jumped into the car and went straight to the ER. They gave him 2 doses of steroids and Benedryl and monitored him for awhile.

We have a follow-up appt with his pediatrician at 3pm.

He thought being at the hospital was a hoot (well, at least for the first 30 min we were there). Several nurses came in to see his reaction to a sweat bee, and he very proudly told all of them "a baby bee tung me... it WEEALLY tung me."

At the hospital being monitored for a little while...
