Isaac's Health Report

Our "healthy as a horse" little guy has recently developed allergies.

We went in for a whole slew of tests last week. The good news is that (1) he was unusually cooperative and endured all the poking, prodding, and being drawn on without being the least bit difficult, and (2) the doctor didn't think his symptoms were due to food allergies.

He did test allergic to dust, cats, and dogs, and will be taking Allegra twice a day, but things could be worse. None of those can cause a dangerous reaction. He goes back in 3 months for the food tests just to be on the safe side.

Oh, and the other good news is that I caught him later that day, ballpoint pen in hand, just before he marked all over the American Girl doll Katherine just got for Christmas. He was ready to mark all over her arm just like the doctor had marked all over his!
