So far, it's been an uneventful holiday weekend… Darren and I are both too tired to be productive at anything, so we've just taken turns holding Joe, sleeping and trying to clean up the house a bit… a hopeless task…
This week Joe was diagnosed with peanut and milk allergies, and we were prescribed an epi-pen in the event of severe reactions… great… something else to worry about… Of course, he's not eating much food yet, but in the case of peanut allergies, some people who are severely allergic can just smell them and start throwing up or break out in hives, so I guess it's pretty serious… We'll just hope he outgrows it, though the allergist said with peanuts, only about 22 percent do… ugh…
Florence is looking forward to our Newfoundland adventure next week… We are going to leave Friday and drive as far as we can… Darren's flying back the following week, and I'm going to have to attempt to drive home with the kids… I'm choosing to look at it as character-building…
Well, off to see what Flo is up to… it's awfully quiet out there…
