TEETH
Deacons first tooth finally popped through last week Wednesday! It sooo fun to peek in there and see his little white sliver of a tooth. His bottom right tooth will soon be poking through too.

STITCHES

This time it wasn't Jason getting the stitches it was my little Jacob. He had a slip in the tub and split his chin open. Jason thought he could fix it with second skin or super glue but Mom disagreed when the supper glue came out. Jason instead took him to Zeeland ER and returned around midnight with 4 stitches. Jacob also got lots of stickers for begin such a good patient!! He must have been tired because that little guy never sits still.

ALLERGIES

Deacon had his first appointment with an allergist yesterday and the conclusion is that he is allergic to dust mites, dogs, mold, fresh cut grass and Christmas trees. He did great at the appointment now mom and dad just need to work on making some changes to his environment to keep him more comfortable. The doctor also thinks he may have asthma due to the allergies and reflux so we now have an inhaler for when he has difficulty breathing. Yikes!! Who new one little kiddo could have so much going on.

FLU
Yup! Deacon has the flu again!!! We went for lunch after his allergy appointment yesterday and he went through 3 outfits during the meal. We headed home and couldn't keep anything in the poor kids. Jacob is thankfully staying healthy at my mom and dad's while we get Deacon better again!
EAR INFECTION
Deacon was also diagnosed with a double ear infection while at the doctor today. Sadly at 8 1/2 months Deacon has his first ear infection. We are hoping this isn't a sign of more to come for him.
REACTION
Deacon's ear infection could not be treated with an oral antibiotic because he has the flu so they decided they should give him an antibiotic shot. Bad idea, he had a reactions and his poor little legs got a bumpy red rash within minutes. Needless to say I spent an extra 40 minutes at the doctor due to the reaction waiting to see if it would spread. Thankfully it didn't and he is finally sleeping in his crib for the first time after a little car ride to put the poor baby to sleep.
We are praying Deacon gets better real soon, we are starting to really miss our Jacob but know it's better for him to stay away and stay healthy.
