It has been several years since Landon has been to the allergy doctor because he seemed to be growing out of his food allergies. Recently, he has began showing symptoms of a nut allergy so I decided it was time to get him checked out again. You can't tell by this photo, and he certainly wouldn't admit it to me, but he was really nervous about this appointment.
On a side note, the last time we visited the allergy doctor we had an embarrassing bathroom episode with Bryce - (you can read about it here http://www.brycelandon.blogspot.com/2008/10/busy-day.html). This time, it was Landon's turn. No, he didn't clog the toilet like Bryce did - he pooped his pants - which he never does! (I guess you could say that he was so nervous about seeing the doctor that he literally sh*t his pants!!!!) Beginning at the moment we entered the tiny exam room, I started smelling little "presents" Landon was passing. The smell was painfully obvious so I apologized to the doctor while she was meeting with us. Next, we were in the exam room alone waiting for the nurse to start the allergy testing and I realized Landon left a "big present" in his underwear. I did what any mom would do - ran to the bathroom, threw away the underwear, and starting cleaning up! Landon was horrified that he had to go commando! He couldn't process why he had to sit through a long doctor appointment without underwear!
As you can see by the reactions on his back, he tested positive for a few things. He is allergic to mold, tree pollen, dust mites, cats, and dogs. Yes, he is allergic to dogs but I don't think there is any way my husband or children will part with Grayson!
