Nuts

We took Cody to an allergist yesterday to have him tested for food allergies. It turns out that he has outgrown his peanut allergy! Yay! He was a trooper for being pricked in the back and arm. Then he had to wait 20 minutes (without scratching the itchy spots) until they came in to read the test results. He reacted very slightly to almonds, walnuts and beef. But not enough for us do avoid those foods since he eats all those things without problems. They said to introduce peanuts slowly and call if he has a problem, but as far as they can tell he should be fine. So, peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches...here we come!

Yipee! Tell Cody I'm proud of him for being so brave to get pricked in his back and arm.
