Itchy & Scratchy

Cole headed back to the doctor again today for a re-check on his eczema, allergies and reflux.  While he's doing better, he's still not a content eater and continues to scratch away at his face.  

As always, he was a good sport at the doctor, only crying at the very end when he was ready to come home.  We've got a couple new medications to try, and tomorrow Cole is off to get his first round of allergy testing done.  This round will test for food allergies.  We're hoping it will help us determine whether or not he needs to be on one of the super-hypoallergenic formulas (they are amino-acid based, and unlike almost every other formula, they have ZERO traces of milk or soy proteins).  

In the meantime, Cole is doing his best to be a happy little guy.  He's enjoying his newly discovered hands, and loves to grab on to anything placed in front of them.  

He's not the most coordinated, but tries to bring everything directly to his mouth.  

Once there, he tries to shove the toy in (along with as many fingers as possible).  YUM!
