So I noticed a rash that Ezequiel was getting on his face and stomache. I took him to the doctor and he said it was a viral rash and it would get worse before it got better so, I gave him a small dose of children's benedryl as the doctor perscribed and then I watched it. He started to get a lot better, the rash was going away. UNTIL, last night I gave him a strawberry to taste and play with, he was making a mess so I decided to take it away. I proceeded to get him ready for bed, a normal bath and baby massage and he went to bed great. At 12:55am he wakes up crying so I thought he wanted a bottle... nope, I thought it was his teeth so I gave him some tylonol... nope, Stan, the great daddy that he is, stayed up with mijo because he knew I had to get up for work at 4a. (I have a point I promise) Stan comes to me and says where is the benedryl cause mijo is itching his chest like crazy and it's starting to bleed a little, I said that you can't give him another medicane because I already gave him the tylonol, so we stayed up with him, walking and bouncing, poor mijo was miserable. Then I texted my mom at 3:15a and asked if it was ok to mix the tylonol that I had already given him and the benedryl and she said yes. So we gave him the small dose of benedryl and he was still cranky and crying. I had to sleep sitting up in bed because everytime I laid down mijo would get restless so then I thought it was his stomache, like a stomache ache. Well, he finally fell asleep in my arms and I got up and got ready for work. I put mijo in the car half asleep and drove to work, when I got to work, I went to the back seat to check on him and his face was swollen and his chest was so raw, I felt horrible, it took everything he had to muster up a small little morning smile. The end result is that I think he is allergic to strawberries, I looked it up and he had the same symptoms as you would with a strawberry allergy. POOR MIJO, he is doing better now but I felt horrible. No more strawberries...
So are little mijo is 9 months old today. He weighs 22lbs and solid. He army crawls everywhere, he picks food up with his little fingers, loves bath time, waves backwards-at himself and says ma-ma. Ezequiel is growing up to be such a loving, caring person. We have a neighbor who has a little girl that is 13 months old and she came over the other day and Ezequiel got a big ol' smile on his face and army crawled as fast as he could to get to her and lifted his head up to her with an open mouth- to give her a kiss. It was so cute. Stan always says that she is his future wife. We'll see :). We are so proud of our little guy. Learning new things everyday and is just one happy kid. WE are truly blessed. 
my mom decided to let him try some of her candy bar, a 3 Musketeers, you can only imagine what he did, LOVE IT OF COURSE! He are the photos to prove it. It almost looks like he just took a huge bite out of it but my mom did not let him. She ended up just giving him a little tiny piece and the last picture is priceless.
