One more thing to add to the list, eh?

Let me just start by saying how lucky we are to have Frankie as our son! He is the toughest kid I know! Each and everyday is like Christmas in our house because we wake up to him daily and he does something new everyday!

Frankie's hernia surgery went so well! E healed and recovered so quickly! Like light speed, I'm not kidding! We went to the surgeons on Thursday just for a follow up on his hernia repairs. He's doing wonderful! They were all talking about how quickly he's moving along for a kid with an O. Most babies aren't where he is! Wow! That was AMAZING to hear that! He's been through so much thus far and knowing he's kicking ass and taking names along the way, that makes it even better! TANK, TANK, TANK!

So you're probably asking what's the newest thing we can add to the list of Frankie? Well, a milk allergy. I had given Frankie some Ted Drewes (I know, I know. Of all the things to be allergic to... This sucks! Who doesn't love ice cream?!) and he got somelittle hives on his face. I didn't think too much of it because it wasn't a lot. I just thought maybe it was so cold that it irritated his skin. Well, while on our way home from a camping trip we stopped at Culver's. Again, vein he fat kid at heart, I got some ice cream and gave him a bite. BAD idea! Hives were ten fold what they were previously, his eyes started to swell and he was uncomfortable. Needless to say, I sat in the back seat of the car with him the rest of the way home and made sure he was okay. We then went to the pediatrician who obviously referred us to an allergist who confirmed my suspicion. Good thing he still likes me breast milk! Anywho, this is just one more thing that Frankie will have to conquer which I know he will. The doctor said, of all the things to be allergic to, this is the best and it's the easiest for him to grow out of. One more thing for the Tank to out grow.

Other than that, he's his usual Tank self! Chatting up a storm. Saying mama, dada, haha, ba's and vowel noises, along with all sorts of other cute things! He will pick up his feet and walk if you hold his hand, try and crawl if you put him on his hands and knees, pivot on his booty. So many things I can't list them all!

Thanks for all your support! We love you all!
