http://guidinglittlemonkeys.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Monday, April 22, 2013. New Plans for Our Allergy Journey. As I mentioned a few posts ago, there is a lot changing in our lives. Our journey with food allergies is no exception. Thankfully, these changes will hopefully be for the better; however, we are still in the very early stages of these changes. Last October I made a post about oral immunotherapy (OIT). Here is what traveling with both Monkeys looks like. So I called the office. I chatted w...

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Monday, December 10, 2012. So, I'm posting our short holiday letter here for 2012. Dear Family and Friends,. We hope 2012 has treated you well! We have had a wonderful, although not super exciting year. Honestly, "not super exciting" has been quite nice. There were no job changes, moves, babies, health issues, or anything else to consider truly exciting. Instead, we just enjoyed our year together and spent our time doing things we love. I haven't won...

More like life is really changing stage. Then there was Halloween. The boys carved their own pumpkins all by themselves, well sort of. They got ...I thi...

Guiding Little Monkeys: May 2014

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. As exhausted as I feel at only 8:44pm, I must say that today has been an amazing day. Our life is GOOD, no GREAT, and I praise God for that! Overall, 2014 is shaping up to be an amazing year. Back in January, Daddy Monkey and I knew that this year had a lot of potential. Never did I expect it to turn out quite this amazing so quickly. Big Monkey woke up with a cold yesterday. Blah. When Dr. R put it on to the spoon, Big Mon...

Guiding Little Monkeys: September 2014
http://guidinglittlemonkeys.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Wednesday, September 10, 2014. Picnic lunch during our first week of school. June went well, but July brought around cold season in full force. Big Monkey started with some GI (gastrointestinal) issue. It settled in just a few days after a dose increase, so we thought it may have been related. Dr. R had us cut our dose in half for a few days (3 days? Trip to the circus. We pretty much isolated ourselves to the house for a week and my poor husband got...

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Wednesday, February 26, 2014. Progress, and please don't try this at home. It has been two weeks since our last updose, and all has been well and busy. We took the boys to the drive-in movies for Valentine's day to see "The Lego Movie." Now I have two little boys running around saying "I'm here to see your butt" and a husband who keeps singing "Everything is awesome! It's all a crack up really. Labels: Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. We eat more than b...

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Wednesday, January 29, 2014. Thankfully, Big Monkey has learned a new skill this week that is helping burn a lot of energy in a short amount of time! Labels: Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Saturday, January 18, 2014. First updose and other developments. The good news though? So far Big Monkey is tolerating his new dose very well. So something is working! Calm outdoor activities that the boys have come up with - brushing rocks. However, when we did man...

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Wednesday, January 23, 2013. So far 2013 has been busy, but treating us well. The Monkey Boys are back in school full swing and thriving. We are working on a total overhaul of the office/schoolroom/workout room (yes, it serves all 3 of those purposes - it's a decent sized room) including new furniture. Of course, new furniture means organizing. The room needed it as our previous desk didn't have any drawers (what was I thinking? Well, actually we've ...

About The Monkey Family. Our Food Allergy OIT Journey. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Second OIT Visit and Promising News! Just this week a young girl died after taking a single bite of a rice krispie treat that happened to have peanut butter flavored frosting on top. She spit the bite out and her parents administered benadryl and 3 epi-pens to no avail (you can read the story here. I know I agreed to medicating as needed, but would these be needed and when it came down to the moment, could I actually say yes?
