Lucy Turns One Year Old!

Lucy turned one on May 2, 2013! She is such a great baby we really haven't had any fuss with her just a happy, cubby, calm baby.
For her party we invited a few friends over for cake and ice cream. We had Ben and the Pease family and Hadley and the Patrick family. Everyone had a little bit of a hard time sitting still but we got everyone in :)

 The Birthday Girl had a very happy Day
 She didn't really know what to do with the presents but the other kids especially Cora helped her figure it out.

 Having cake for the first time, She wasn't super excited at first but warmed up pretty quick and ended up eating most of it. She had two kinds of cake chocolate with chocolate frosting and funfetti with funfetti frosting.









Even though she can now how mostly any food she still prefers fruits and vegetables.






Just being cute one morning. My Lucy Lu



And sleeping sound like a baby :)





On May 11 I gave Lucy a fried egg and some raspberries for a snack in the afternoon. After she ate we went outside and were playing on her swing that she got for her birthday. She started scratching at her chest and then we went back inside. The scratching continued and progressed all over her body accompanied by a really red rash that started on her belly.
She was getting drowsy and we decided we should take her to the walk in clinic, so Chad ran her but came back because it was closed. He set her down and she just collapsed to the floor so Chad gave her a Priesthood blessing then took her to the emergency room.
I was going to stay home with Cora so that she wouldn't be just hanging around the ER but I couldn't stand not being there with her. So I my friend Mirissa came and got Cora and I went to be with Lucy. When I walked in she was asleep in Chads arms which is VERY rare, she hardly snuggles with us at all. And her skin was super red.
 After a few hours in the ER with her oxygen monitored and some Benedryl in her we found out she is most likely allergic to eggs.  Her skin went back to normal and she was just really sleepy from the meds. They sent us home with some steroids in case it got worse or happened again, but luckly everything was fine and we now know that she is allergic to eggs and raspberries so eating both together is what made the reaction so bad. So we just stay away from both and life is great for this baby :)
 

 A happy note to end with Lucy, enjoying the swing from her birthday. :)
