Allergy's
posted on 01/13/2009

We have had Jr tested twice he is has food allergies. He is allergic to diary,wheat,bananas,beef and oats.

His appointment today with the new Allergist was great she listened and gave good advise and also actually sat on the floor and interacted with Jr.

He will still continue on his Alimentum Formula till he is 2 years old and then we will reevaluate at that time.

We are to introduce eggs and chicken at 18 months. She said to try 1 for 1 week and the following week the other to see if he can tolerate them.

Our 2nd Miracle was born at 08:38 am on December 27th 2007.

Happy Birthday Kevin David Jr.


I can't believe our little guy is One already. We love him so much I just wish DH was here to spend this day with us.

Well we spent a good part of this morning at the Urgent Care. Poor little guy has been running a fever since Christmas it had gone away last night but came back at around midnight. What we found out is he has a Right Ear Infection and a Virus. He also weighs 24 lbs and 9 ounces. I feel so bad for him getting his 1st Ear Infection on his 1st Birthday.

We had a small family day with Myself,DD and the Birthday Boy. DH even got to call from Iraq and webcam with us . He saw Jr open his presents and pick at his smash cake. He is allergic to diary that's why he just had a small cake. He didn't eat any of the cake but did taste the frosting a little.

Today for Kevin Jr's 9 month birthday. Me and Ashllie and Jr and our friend Wayne drove an hour to the Nelson Farm Pumpkin Festival to spend Jr's day out there.

We got there are 11 ish and stayed for about 3 hours. It was a fun time, We all went on a tractor pull through the corn and the pumpkins. We took tons of pictures, Jr saw some geese and rabbits and a 834 pound pumpkin. Ashllie swung on a swing in the hayloft inside the barn. Jr loved watching his big sister ride a horse for the 1st time. We all did a lot of walking looked at the different corn and had a nice time. The only thing missing was dh hopefully next Fall he will want to go with us when he comes home from the Sandbox.

9 month Dr's Appointment
posted on 09/25/2008

Jr had his 9 month appointment today he weighs 23 lbs and 11 ozs and is 28 3/4 inches. Well that is what the nurse said but he wasnt as straight as he should so he might actually be 29 inches. The Dr check him and said that Jr's umbilical hernia is getting smaller and he just has a cold no ear infection which is Awesome. Our son is 2 days away from the 9 month mark and thanks to God he has never had an infection in his ears.

We also discussed his left arm and how it still pops and the Dr made a referral to the Child PT to see what we can do to strengthen his arm.

I also told him about spit up issues the last 2 weeks and he said that was normal at this age and that he should out grow it. I even mentioned the peaches and milk product issues again. I was told to keep Jr away from all milk products,peaches,oatmeal,eggs,peanut butter.

He said to continue with the Alimentum formula and the stage 1 and now stage 2 food I am giving him. He also said I can start giving jr meat that is really fine with his veggie. So I going to buy a couple Stage 2 baby food that has the beef with the veggie mixed.

I was also told we will discuss how Jr is at his 1 yr appointment and most likely he will have to go on Soy. An stay on formula longer then average.

As for his development the Dr said Jr is right were he should be, which is Great.Dr also said that Jr's eyes most likely will not be changing colors so we can officially say he has hazel eyes because if they were going to be brown they would have changed over by now and not have any blue in them

Jr's first time standing up all by himself
posted on 09/21/2008

Tonight something really cool happened our baby boy stood up all by himself in his crib 2 times.

Little background .So yesterday I stood him up and placed his hands on the railing and he loved it. So tonight I was talking to my mom and I look over his way and he is starting to standup. But I missed taping it because my camera was off. So a couple hours later I see him about to do it again and this time I tape it but its kinda dark because in my bedroom there isn't much light but I got it on film regardless.
