Delurking Opportunity

As seen at Following Frodo:

Apparently it's delurking week.

If you feel like delurking, just leave a comment here, there, or anywhere.

If you don't know what to say, you can just leave a blogstone (the invention of PeripateticPolarBear): (O)

If you don't feel like delurking . . . well, don't.

Of course I like it when people comment. But if you just want to read without letting me know you're here, that's okay too.

Hi! I read your blog bur probably never comment because I don't have anything helpful to say. I do have a question though. Did you have allergies before Baby E was born?

Hi, not so little sister! I've seen you around . . . glad you decided to comment! Believe me, having something "helpful to say" is not a prerequisite for commenting here. :)

Yes, I had allergies before Baby E was born. I come from a long, proud (er, maybe not proud) line of allergy-prone people. If you wrote down a list of all the allergies in just my immediate family (parents, siblings, me) you'd easily fill up a piece of paper.

While most researchers don't seem to think speicific allergies are hereditary (though some do seem to run in families) the tendency to have allergies is definitely genetic. Baby E definitely has the allergy genes.

What really amazes me is that my older two kids don't seem to have any really bothersome allergies. I guess they take after DH's side of the family.

Oh, I forgot to say that as far as I know none of us have had anaphylactic-type reactions vefore, so that's completely new territory for me. Most of us get more minor allergy symptoms--unfumfortable and bothersome, but not life-threatening.

And I'm also a terrible typist when Baby E is fighting me for the keyboard.

Followed the link from Restricted Gourmet and lurk sometimes to see how things are going with your and Baby E's allergies because we are deal with similar issues, although much less extreme.

Thanks for the recipes!

Love the (o) idea....kind of like the cairns of stones by the Jordan River placed by Joshua and his people....and the living stones reference in one of the Peters (sorry, not sure which right now)

Happy Thanksgiving!
