phew i finally made it back. how was everyones xmas and ny?
i also dont no how u do it erica, i would not cope very well... oh and i dont think it matters, MIL was saying that they think (she attended a conferance in melb about it) that u should not delay giving them foods they are likely to be allergic to, their bodies will be more likely to react to the foods if they dont get exposed early.

mr c is like a velcro baby atm, im not allowed out of his sight and most of the time he doesnt want to talk to or he held by anyone else. its a bit annoying cos DF is home til 10th jan and doesnt see him very much during the week (generally gets home just before or just after bedtime) but mr c is not wanting to spend time with DF if im in site.
it looks like we are finally going to get a tooth thru in the next couple of days, its JUST THERE!! mr c is loving avocado, apple and carrot, not to mention the dried fruit without any sulphites that he got in his stocking at xmas. the only downsides are a) he thinks he should have the spoon (and feed himself) if i am feeding him puree b) be able to have anything and everything i am eating or drinking...
his finger is almost completely healed with not even much of a scar (phew) bloody MIL acted like i was massivly irresponsible for letting it happen tho. hello i am not going to intentionally let him burn himself!!!!!!!!

WELL we now know mr is not allergic to dairy or wheat etc BUT is allergic to egg. he came up in hives all around his mouth and hand when he got fed pavlova mixture, made from egg whites, cornflour, vinegar and sugar, (DF: "but he wanted some!") on xmas eve. he then got a burnt bum when it came thru the poor li man. on the upside it didnt seem to be too bad i washed his face and hands and put his rash cream on the hives and they went away within 1/2hr. bit scary tho cos my cuz has an anaphylactic to egg...and wheat and soy and dairy...

Dani- whens DJ's bday? end of jan or start of feb?

anyway holy cr*p its 11pm im off to bed.
smooches to everyone
