15 months old and a skin prick test

Ya. That about sums it up folks.
When Kaylee saw this picture she said, “Oh, no! Regan is SO sad!”

(Jon had the “lovely” job of pinning him down.)

I love that Jon indulges my need to photograph EVERYTHING! He even smiled for me after I dug out his phone so I could take a picture of our tortured child. (You know instead of giving me the “Woman you’re crazy” look.) He loves me.

Look at my poor poor Bugs back. We found out that he is allergic to eggs (The only new find and not a big deal since we don’t do eggs as Kaylee is allergic.) as well as Wheat, Dairy (all varieties), and Soy. He’s had a rough couple of days, and seems to be coming down with a cough to boot.

Yesterday we took him in for his 15 month well child check. It was a great visit. Minus the shots of course. Here are his new stats from his 2/21/11 WCC.

Weight: 17 lbs 13 oz 1.2 % (He’s back on the chart!!!!)
Height: 31 inches 45 % (Tall and skinny like his Daddy)
Head: 18 inches 12 %

So all in all he is doing GREAT! You know compared to how he was when he was dying the slow mysterious death. We are as ever so grateful that it was never worse that is was at it’s worst. Cause it really could have been SO much worse!

Mister Man is starting to kick his Failure to Thrive diagnosis’ Butt! He is also catching up rapidly in his gross motor skills. (His Fine motor & Language development were never an issue.) Makes his Mama proud! He really is SUCH a trooper. I very much doubt I’d be such a pleasant personality if it was me being poked and prodded ALL the time.

Hears to getting healthy!

    YAY!! That’s great news about him kicking butt! The prick tests are never fun (even as an adult) – at least his was only foods pricked and not environmental (I had a patch test done a while back – I was itchy for days with that thing taped to my back) … that would have made him a very miserable little guy! It’s weird to see him at 1.2% … he looks so much bigger – maybe it’s because he is so tall.

    Poor little guy getting poked all the time. It breaks my heart to see little babies go through hard things like this. At least he is a happy boy for you. Makes you love him even more, huh.
