Birthday. Tomorrow, which will be today by the time I'm finished writing this, Naomi will be a half year old. To celebrate, she will be getting another round of vaccinations. Fun, right?
Skin. Yesterday, Naomi came home with blood all over her face and clothes. She looked like she had gotten into a fight. If, I didn't know she was notorious for scratching her face (she has eczema) then I would have thought something had happened. Her face had been doing pretty well recently. But yesterday she got upset while riding in her car seat and I guess she decided to take her frustration out on her face. It is hard to see your child like that. I know it itches and I've tried all I know to do to help. I wish I could make it better for her. Next stop will likely be the dermatologist.
Daddy's home. My hubby is back. He went on a trip with his youth group. We missed him and are glad to have him home.
Pictures. I've been wanting to take Naomi to get another round of professional pictures (for Easter), but the weather keeps raining/snowing on my plans.
Solid food. This week, if I haven't already mentioned this, we are moving on to try other types of cereal. Naomi has mastered the rice. It's time to try oatmeal. Then, barley, then on to veggies ...

Cora has/had eczema. I've been taking her to a DOM (doctor of Oriental Medicine). He massages certain points and she takes herbs. After about 6-8 sessions, she doesn't have a single red spot on her skin. I'm taking her next week, and if she still looks good then he said we're done.
ReplyDeleteI got his number from a woman whose granddaughter had eczema when she was a baby. They took her to him, it got better, and it hasn't ever returned. She's 6 now. I'm really hopeful that our story will be the same because I know eczema can stay with a person for life.
That sounds great. Do you have a number you could give me?
