It's Confirmed!

My poor little Chase is allergic to peanuts...and not just peanuts, but pretty much all nuts! Poor guy! I am so sad that he will be never be able to really enjoy a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or some of my favorite candy bars. I felt bad taking him in there knowing that he would have to have the scratch test and be uncomfortable. No mom wants that for the kids, but I also felt it was necessary to see if he truly was allergic so we could take precautions. They did the test and said we would have to wait 20 minutes, but after 10 minutes they came in and saw the welts, and said they already knew he had the allergy so gave him some Benadryl so he would not be uncomfortable anymore. In other news....We had a great weekend. Considering the crummy, rainy, Saturday we had we made the best of it and had a great weekend!

First we hit the side walk chalk festival and after the drive in theater. We knew Chase would be out pretty quick and he did not disappoint. He tossed and turned for awhile, but it was fun to get out and relax and watch a movie.On Saturday we woke up to rain and storms...Shocker! So we decided to hit the Lehi indoor pool. Chase loved it and went down lots of slides and had fun with his Dad at the pool!Last, but not least we had a great Fathers. We spent the day together and up to SLC to visit with Chris dad at the Veterans home. Chase is so lucky to have such a good Daddy and example in his life. He looks forward to when Chris comes home every day, and I always have to keep Chase up for Chris if he is comes home late or he will wake Chase up just so he can spend time with him....and I love it! Nothing makes a wife and mom more happy than seeing that relationship! Thanks Chris for being such a great Dad and husband! We are so lucky to have you!

I feel your pain on the allergies! No fun...and a bit scary. There are such random things that have nuts in them. Even peanut flour is in a lot of foods. Who knew there was such a thing? Oh well, he's still dang cute!
