laundry problems revisited

Why is it, that I do a week's worth of 'whites' laundry, and put away exactly 17 pairs of underwear for my 4 year old, but only 4 pairs for my 9 year old?

And on that note, it appears that the new laundry detergent did not cause Ethan's hives. Or if it did, then it was just a one-time thing. After the incident last Tuesday I experimented by dressing him in one article of clothing from that load of wash each day. No hives. This weekend just about everything he wore was washed in the All Free & Clear and no hives.

So...what could it have been?

Kate got hives one time when she was like 18 months from a peanut butter shake from Sonic. Took her in to be tested for different allergies. Nothing. She hasen't had a problem since. We know it was the shake beacause it was all she had had and 30-40 minutes head to toe hives in the ER getting an IV. Weird stuff.

I remember my boys telling like the ENTIRE world that they share underwear. YIKES, what's a mom to do?

I broke out in hives from a virus once... maybe his body fighting off something.
