After Ethan had a bad reaction to a scrambled egg several months ago, Dr. Newby wanted to do further allergy testing to see what else he was allergic to. He was a champ today! He sat in my lap while they drew dots on his back and then did the "prick test." He didn't cry, didn't wiggle, or fuss! The doctor tested him for eggs, peanuts, and kitties =) Little man went 2-3 and tested positive for eggs and peanuts. The doctor prescribed an epipen for us to carry in case of an emergency, but for the most part this shouldn't be a big lifestyle change. We hadn't been feeding him eggs or peanut butter anyway so we will just continue to leave that off the menu. The doctor gave us a couple websites to look at that will help educate us a little more about egg and peanut allergies in babies.
The last couple weekends have been full of family events! A couple weeks ago we headed up to Indianapolis for Jayden's 2nd birthday party which was a lot of fun. Last weekend, Mamaw watched Ethan on Saturday afternoon so mommy and daddy could go tailgate with their friends. Then Ethan spent the night at Papaw and Ginka's and got to have extra play time with Aunt Kristen, Jayden, and Kaleb. This weekend we are so excited that Aunt Laura, Uncle John, Aidan, and Sydney are all coming to visit!
Still no teeth!! We've been eyeing his pearly nubs for a couple weeks now, but they just haven't popped through yet! Ethan is babbling SO much right now and has really picked up on mimicking our behavior. I'll include a couple funny things he's doing now during his 15-month update next week. Hope everyone has a good rest of the week!
