Saturday September 25, 2010 - Gymboree

Saturday, September 25, 2010 - Miles went to Gymboree for the first time and he had so much fun climbing on all of the fun obstacles and going through the play tunnel. I think he liked watching the other kids his age play too! He did so well and came home exhausted!

Week of September 12, 2010 - Allergy Testing

Tuesday, September 14, 2010 - Well, we finally decided to get Miles tested for allergies after his allergic reaction last week. During the allergy screening Miles was scratched on his back 12 times to determine if he was allergic to the "most common" food allergies, i.e. soy, peanuts, milk, rice, etc. After the initial testing was done, it was determined that Miles was allergic to milk, eggs, peanuts and dogs! Miles did so well during the testing, but he was back was really itchy and red due to his allergic reactions. To confirm how allergic Miles was to eggs, peanuts and milk he had to have his blood drawn. Poor little guy! He has been pricked so many times during his first year of life. Once again, Miles was a little trooper and he did extremely when they pricked his arm for the blood. test. When we finally got the results back from the blood tests, it was determined that there would be a 95% chance that Miles would have an allergic reaction to milk, eggs and peanuts and only a 5% chance that the tests were a false positive and he was not actually allergic. We don't want to take any chances so we need to be extra careful on the food Miles eats, especially for his first 5 years of life. The doctor said he will most likely grow out of the milk and eggs allergy within 5 years but there is only a 20% chance he will grow out of the peanut allergy. I never realized how much milk and eggs were in food till I really started reading the ingredients. I feel like Miles can't eat anything. Of course, I will be making him a special birthday cake for his first birthday.

Miles new toy is the dog door. He sees Tyson going out the dog door so he thought it would be fun to try it out himself!!!

Miles 11 Months Old - Week of September 5, 2010 Labor Day Weekend

Monday, September 6, 2010 - Labor Day!!! We woke up this morning and I thought Miles would enjoy a new breakfast so I made him some delicious apple cinnamon pancakes. Miles loved his new breakfast treat. Then about an hour later, I noticed a little bumb on the side of his head, as I looked closer I saw several bumps over his throat and all of a sudden his upper body was covered in hives and his face and throat were starting to swell. David and I rushed Miles to Pomerado Urgent Care (last time we were here was on Mother's Day for his staph infection on his ear, I guess Miles like to be at Urgent Care on holidays). The nurses triaged him right away and it turns out he was having an allergic reaction to what I thought was the soy milk in the pancakes. I could barely even recognize Miles because his eyes and face were so swollen. They gave him benadryl and monitored him for about an hour and a half. He fell asleep after he had some benadryl. His symptoms went away but we scheduled an appointment with an allergest. Miles was such a little trooper!!!
