Much better...

The welts/rash that covered most of Ava's body have all but disappeared. She has a few tiny ones that reappeared on her face and neck area after her bath tonight, but the majority of them are gone.
She is in a much better mood... I'm not sure if it's because she's not as itchy or she's not on as much Benadryl anymore. I think that really affected her. She hasn't been able to fall asleep until at least 1:30pm the last two days for her nap. Usually she's down by noon. I've been tapering the dosage so she only got 1/2 tsp twice today as compared to every 2-4 hours a few days ago. I think tomorrow I'll give her 1/4 tsp.
She had a good report from daycare and came home talking and singing our ears off. She was able to independently count to 10 twice, but missed the numbers 8 and 9 both times! She continued honing her skills with Twinkle Twinkle and Pat-a-Cake tonight. I need to get it on video... it's so darn cute!
She had some turkey, pineapple and yogurt for dinner. She passed on the steamed broccoli tonight as well as last night. I think she's predisposed to not liking it. We've never made a scene out of it... she just doesn't like the way it looks or she KNOWS it's broccoli!
Tomorrow's my day off. We have nothing planned. I'm sure we'll end up at Target or Trader Joe's... :)

Oh my goodness, she can count to 10?? That is so awesome! What a smart little girl you have.

I'm thrilled that her welts are almost gone. Hope she keeps feeling better.
