allergy update

So on Monday we went for allergy testing and the results came back that he was in fact allergic to some things but the things that he was allergic to are not things we can't live without. The scariest allergy is his allergy to eggs. The eggs are the 'dangerous' allergy and there are other mild allergies that he has. Those are shrimp, soy, corn, rice and peanuts. These are tough things to get around as babies eat rice cereal practically every morning for breakfast but it looks as though oatmeal is calling our name for a WHILE!!! In a month or so we will begin re-introducing the 'mild allergens' slowly and one at a time while still avoiding eggs for sure. No scrambled eggs for breakfast on his first birthday....... guess we'll have oatmeal instead! ;-)
