Natalie was out playing in the yard while Arnel was watering and she started crying pretty bad. Arnel brought her in and I pretty much figured it was a wasp sting. Those little buggers are flying all over the grass. Sure enough she had two stings on her feet. I think I found a third this morning, but I only saw two yesterday. We put ice on her foot, and she fell asleep for her nap. She was cranky for the rest of the evening, but seems to be doing fine this morning. Not much swelling anymore. The stings are on the inside of her ankle, top of the foot by her pinkie toe, and on her heel. The one on her heel looked the worse yesterday, but the one on the side of her ankle seems to be more swollen than the others this morning. She's not complaining or limping at all, so I don't think it hurts her much anymore. We'll definitely not be playing out in the yard for a while. We can't tell where the wasps are coming from, so I'm not sure how to get rid of them.

Your poor baby! I can't believe how quickly they recover from these things though. I remember getting stung when I was 10, and I whined and whined for several days. I hope she's feeling better.
Poor thing!
Poor baby! One is bad enough, but THREE? Ouch!
Aw. :( Poor thing!
