Allyson Update

Ally is turning one year on Wednesday, the time has flown by. She is getting so fun these days. She says, "see", "that", "mama", "dada", "nana", and "papa". She still isn't walking although she could. She waits until she only can reach one finger onto whatever she's holding before she starts to crawl. I don't think she believes she can do it. We went to the doctor yesterday, and she weighs 17 lbs 8 oz. and is 29 inches long. It surprised me because I always thought she was bigger than Em. But at 9 mo. Em was 18.3 lbs and 29 inches, so obviously being 3 mo. younger she was bigger than Allyson.
Ally also had her first ER visit this week, before Em which was also a shocker. I always figured we spend way more time in the ER with Em's activity level. But luckily God let her be a scared active baby! Anyway, I let Ally have a small lick of peanut butter, which she didn't like and spit it out. Within minutes her face started breaking out in hives, something she's done before so I didn't panic. But then within minutes it moved into her eyes and she started coughing. So I rushed her to the ER and by the time I got there she was breathing fine but her eyes had almost swelled shut and her whole face was swollen and dark red. Even the whites of her eyes were red. So they had to give her an anti histamine and when that didn't touch it a steroid. 3 hours later she was doing better and they sent her home. Yesterday they had me follow up with my doctor who said she can't be in contact with any peanuts or peanut products, she can't even be touched after someone else has handled them, we have to super wash our hands first. He also gave us an epi pen in case she gets a hold of it, so now we have to carry it wherever we go. It was really scary but she's totally fine now. I also found out that the doctor wasn't okay with her not liking to drink milk and I have to start giving her four tums a day to replace her calcium, she's a high maintenance medical baby!
