We took Zackary to the doctors today for a rash on his nose and cheeks. She thought it was clogged pores but wants us to take him to a dermatologist. Oh great my 16 month old already has clogged pores..he's going to take after my clogged pores that I've been battling since puberty!
Because he always cries when his ears are looked at and heart and lungs are listened to and he is weighed and well you catch my drift, I decided we needed a positive distraction, something to make going to the doctors not such a bad thing. And there it was in front of my nose...suckers! "They are sugar free," says the nurse as she noticed me eying them. He loved it! He was gentle at first with it, and by the time we got to the car he was trying to bite it. We finally had to take it away due to his lack of teeth. Then 10 minutes later he noticed that his fingers were way sticky and didn't like that. He held his fingers up, spread apart and whined. It was all so cute. His first lolly pop, silly, simple and fun moments!
That is so cute!! Now I'll be interested to hear what the dermatologist says. When do you go?
