Goodbye Allergies!!

We are SOOOOO EXCITED to announce that Claire's allergies have disappeared!! She has outgrown them ALL!!

WAHOOO!! - No more avoiding dairy, eggs, peanut butter, strawberries, or sunflower seeds!!

She was tested this month because she was not having reactions when she would accidentally ingest her allergies. They had to do a back prick test (not her favorite) and the poor nurse was on Claire's bad list for the rest of the appointment. Anytime the nurse entered to check on us, Claire would immediately cry and climb up my lap. the doctor was so amazed and super happy for us. He said we should feed her all of the "off limits" foods that we had been avoiding so they wouldn't return and we wasted no time! Ice cream, pizza, bagels and cream cheese, PB & J sandwiches, PB cookies, goldfish (fishies), Reeses PB Cups, Cows milk in her bottle, and so much more!! She has been enjoying her new foods and asks for Pizza often (a good choice I think).

It is so nice to not have to buy a separate list of foods, make a separate dinner, etc!! Now I just make food and we all eat it - it is a small slice of heaven.

Here she is enjoying one of her new favorite snacks - Fishies
