Test results
The good news is that Cooper is NOT allergic to eggs, which means he can for sure have any vaccine that was cultured in egg. The not so great, but certainly not bad news, is that he IS "moderate to severly" allergic to milk. I will have to discuss which end of the spectrum he is closer to with his Dr at his 9 month appt. to figure out what exactly that means...
For now we have been trying a little bit of a formula that is halfway between hypoallergenic and normal milk based formula. Middle of the road so to speak. SO FAR he has been doing okay, but with the bonus of teething and a cold he has been SO grumpy. It is hard to tell if the new formula is part of the grumpiness...He is so grumpy he is even scaring Jackson!

First Day of Preschool
Wow, I thought this summer that we had so much time before this day would be here! He is such a big boy now. I wonder how many times throughout his growing up that I will say that? Jackson wasn't too thrilled to go this Tuesday to orientation for an hour ( complete with crying, screaming and clinging to my leg... ). But today, the official first day, he did GREAT! Just walked in, and went right to playing. I think a lot of it had to do with Daddy being there. He looked a bit lonely, but I know that probably only lasted a moment. There are 7 boys and 3 girls in his class, the "Pigtails". His teacher is Ms. Karen and seems very laid back. I am a little nervous about getting a call about a pee-pee accident. I have all this free time and I want to stay home near the phone, just in case!! I miss him, but I know he is having fun. I have to admit, it is nice not being a walking dictionary or playing the "why" game. And it was nice to come home and play with Cooper and rock him to sleep. As I type this I keep expecting the door to burst open and hear "Hi, Mommy!" and a request for juice. Nope just a sleeping baby, and wonderful silence!
