TICK

Monday night we spend the evening in urgent care having a tick removed from Ariel's leg. Mike met up with us after work.
We spend the first hour waiting outside riding scooters.



The next hour and half riding scooters in the hall and waiting in the room.

It was a small deer tick and we are on the lookout for lyme disease for the next two weeks.
Isaac lost tooth number 7 too!

Ticks are scary! My brother got a tick bite 4 years ago and got lyme disease from it. He didn't know enough at the time to be checked by a doctor and so it took years and horrible medical issues later to finally diagnose him with it. I'm glad you're on top of this with Ariel!

Ticks are so scary. I'm glad you knew enough to think it may be a tick.
I can't believe how much Isaac looks like you, Lisa.

Scary! She's so little! I guess ticks just come with the territory in Wisconsin, though. I love the pic of Lucas and Mike inspecting the removed beast! Funny!
