Allergy doctor!


Last month, as the weather was getting so wonderful and we were outside a lot, Eva started showing signs of allergies. She had watery eyes, a clear runny nose, some sneezing, and she rubbed her eyes and nose. Shane and I never came down with anything, so we thought it may be allergies. I took her to a Pediatric Allergist and had her tested. Eva has slight allergies right now, however they more than likely will get worse before they get any better. : (

This picture was taken in the doctor's office while we waited for the test to run it's course. She had the test done on her back, where she was pricked with 16 different items/groupings. The largest reaction, thus her biggest allergy right now, is to feathers (duck, goose, chicken). Eva also showed a reaction to a few others, and the culprit was probably the tree mixture she was allergic to, since we had been outside so much while the trees were budding out.

We will go back next year to have the testing done again and see if she has more allergies and what they may be.
