October 17

Jennie took Shea to visit the doctor today. It appears that Shea has an allergy to a protein present in cow's milk (i.e., dairy products). Daphne had the same allergy for the first 6 months or so of her life. Jennie is already trying to be dairy free (no cheese, no butter, etc), but Shea's sensitivity persists.

Daphne is showing a teeny bit of jealousy towards her baby brother. "Daddy, can we put Shea in the garbage can? We don't need him anymore." It took a lot of effort to keep from laughing. I explained to Daphne that Shea is more than welcome to live in our household and that we love him very much. She was not impressed and still wants him gone. As they grow older, I think she will love him completely.

Here are some new photos of Shea playing on the floor:







Until tomorrow,
