Ahhh, Ahhh, Ahhh Choo…

Well, looks like Adela has a cold.  Sniffly nose and cranky attitude.  She hasn’t wanted to eat much the past two days, but we’re trying to hold off on giving her formula since she just came off the formula.  We’d like to see if she can get over the cold on her own.

We’re pretty sure it’s not the flu since she doesn’t have a fever, so we’re thankful for that.  One of the odd things about having an egg allergy is that you can’t get the flu vaccine (both the shot and the nasal spray are off limits).  Since the flu vaccine is actually grown in chicken eggs, we don’t want risk her having an allergic reaction to the vaccine.  So, this year, we’re going to be practicing “flu avoidance” — plenty of hand-washing and avoiding sick people.
