Hit the elephants!

Playing!

Isabel Deniz is now much better from her eczema! During the course of this last week she has also changed her behavior a lot. Now she has a much longer attention span, and she likes to play, especially with hanging things. Here are some of the latest pics.

Doctor Visit--an extended Halloween

On Monday Isabel went to her 2nd-month visit to Dr. Lowrey. She got 5 immunizations, which she didn't like at all. The first one was oral, and she puked it out twice. The shots she liked of course even less. At night she cried like she never had before until her Tylenol kicked in. Mami was about to have a heart attack. She even missed her Heroes episode out of shock!
The doctor also saw the awful diaper rash and the rash all over her body (we thought it was the same thing, but it turned out to be two separate rashes at the same time). He prescribed an antibiotic, a cortisone cream, and a moisturizing cream. Baba has spent the rest of his life creaming her up and cleaning her Popo with warm wet cloths like the old-timers. The good news is that the diaper rash is almost gone! The other rash is still all over her, but the doctor asked us to give it a week before we panic back to his office.
