Busy Month.. Where to Start?

hmmm... where to start ?? Well, Carson has had a rough month!! Thanks to a traumatic blood test session, we found out that she is definitely allergic to EGGS (the yolks and the whites). We're hoping it will be a mild allergy. We will have an appointment with an allergist at some point, but in the meantime I'm looking for eggless cake recipes for her 1st birthday!! (can you believe she's almost one!!)

Carson was also recently evaluated on her gross motor skill development, and well.. she needs help. So she has been enrolled in Early Intervention. Once a week a physical therapist (Jodi) comes to our house and plays with Carson (while making her work her muscles). We've only had one session, and that was a "get-to-know-each-other" session. Hopefully this week they'll get to business!! :)

Good news... is she finally sprouted her third tooth! The fourth is not far behind. Soon she'll have her top two and bottom two in place. More good news! We just got her a passport, and we're Canada and Aruba-bound this summer! Canada to visit our good friends who recently moved there, and to Aruba to celebrate my 30th birthday (it will be a belated birthday trip!!).

I just got home from a business trip to Portland, OR. What a fun town!! So Green (the color and environmentally!) I had the most fantastic people to work with at the hotel and some of them even shared my fondness/curiosity for the TLC show "Little People, Big World". The Roloff's live right outside of Portland, so one of the hotel staff went out there and took a picture of the Roloff Farm sign. I wish it could have been me there at the sign! just kidding. But seriously, it would have been nice to have some extra time to visit the Oregon coast, Mt. Hood, etc. Having a baby changes everything! As it was, I was gone 5 days... Luckily this trip Carson wasn't mad at me when I came home.. she was excited to see me!! (it warms my heart!!)
