His hair is not at all red, I realize it looks like it might be in this picture. He is definitely blond!
Henry is six months old! He can suddenly sit for long stretches (I think 8 minutes is his current record). He is generally happy and loves to watch his sisters whenever they are in the room.
The only food that I can get him to eat so far is pumpkin-sweet potato. I don't think I'll be able to find that in the US so I hope he likes just plain US-style sweet potato, too! Not that solids have helped his night-sleep anyway so it's kind of feeling pointless to keep pushing it just now, maybe I'll wait another few weeks and try again (or maybe just wait until we get to Texas).
I can't seem to control this rash on his neck so I'll see if there is anything else we can do when I take him in this week for his vaccinations. I use the cream we got earlier this month maybe every 36 hours and it seems like that is too often/regular to be using hydrocortisone for me. I am looking forward to seeing how much he weighs when we go in!
Ezra had a nasty rash on his forehead. His doctor said to use hydrocortisone but also to try Vaseline... It cleared it up really fast and the vaseline seemed to protect his skin from a reoccurrance. It is pretty greasy, though.
Is it a yeast rash? Yeast is usually tiny red, raised bumps. You could treat with over the counter fungal stuff, if you can find it there.
I actually bought pumpkin & pears mixed from Walmart the other day. It was the Nature's Goodness brand in a jar. I grabbed it up since you raved about pumpkin! :)
I love how Henry is so proud of himself in this picture!!
I asolutely CANNOT wait to get my hands on this little guy!
I absolutely CANNOT wait to get my hands on this little guy!!
