Matching Jammies

We got the girls matching footie pajamas. So cute!



Lena's smile isn't real, but it's the only one we could get with her eyes open. She thinks it's fun to pretend to be asleep when I'm trying to take pictures.


Lena showing off the "pinekern" she found at the park yesterday and brought home. I think she calls it that because she thinks the word is "pinecorn" and she pronounces "corn" like "kern". I love it when she asks me if she can have some "popkerns."


Showing Eva her pinekern.


Lena loves to cuddle Eva.


Big sister kisses.


In other news, we found out last week that Eva is allergic to milk and peanuts. We discovered this when we tried to give her formula and she broke out in hives anywhere the formula touched her skin. So I am no longer breastfeeding her and she is on soy formula now. You may remember that Lena has dairy issues as well, but we are pretty sure that hers is just an intolerance instead of an allergy as she can have small amounts of dairy without problem. And she has never gotten hives; she just gets digestive problems from dairy.

So we are sad that Eva is allergic to dairy, but we are glad that we found out about it when we did. (And also glad that she disliked the dairy formula enough that she didn't actually swallow any.) The peanut allergy really surprised us, but the doctor called it a "mild" allergy so hopefully it won't be too big of a deal.
