14 month update
November 24, 2004 - 6:29 p.m.
I've been so neglectful of Marlee's diary! She keeps me SOO busy!
Anyway she is from the previous post about her allergy appointment - the testing was postponed until her 15 month appointment but we are positive she is allergic to milk and not eggs or wheat. Since switching her to soy and avoiding milk completely she has been perfectly fine.
I am praying that she grows out of it because I make a lot of stupid mistakes when it comes to her dairy free diet.
Anyway here are her latest milestones:
