You know when you go out for breakfast and you have your choice of bacon, ham or sausage? Well, back home in Nova Scotia there’s one more choice: fried bologna. And it’s delicious. Weird I know… but if you grew up on it you’d agree too, I promise. And that’s just it – we grew [...]

Ah Ah Ah-Choo!
After four long months of waiting, we finally got in with the pediatric allergist yesterday. And learned NOTHING. Ok, we did learn something. We learned that just because Oscar might have tested negative for peanuts, egg whites, egg yolks and shellfish, doesn’t necessarily mean he won’t have an allergic reaction when we feed it to [...]
Zzzzzzzz…
My frustration with O eating solid food is SO yesterday. Now we’re on to something totally new. He’s waking during the night. Oscar has slept through the night since he was nine weeks old. We had a few weeks of wake ups in the beginning as he was learning to fall back to sleep by [...]

Uh, can I see the menu please?
Today was the first day for Oscar to eat “big boy” food. He was SO excited to try. I had the bowl in front of him and was moving the spoonful of rice cereal towards him. He was SO excited! He reached out for the spoon and was practically shaking with anticipation. I don’t think [...]
