Poor little girl

A couple of weeks ago Louka had a cold, and now she's got another one - a horrible, chesty, phlegmy one. And then in the bath this morning her legs and arms came up in horrible welts. I rushed her off to the doctor, who said it looked like a typical allergy rash and sent us to the pharmacy for some anti-histamine syrup. The syrup did the trick, though not as quickly as I hoped. But what could she be allergic to? The bath was just plain water, so perhaps it was something she ate. The only new thing she'd eaten in the last day or so was a tangelo Graham had brought home for her. She'd eaten an oatcake with butter yesterday, and some cashews, but she'd had both of these before. I guess this means we're going to have to monitor her food from now on - what a pain.
