Still Allergic to Milk...

Well I knew this day would come, and yesterday it did.  David Jr, Carly, and I were at the park with some friends.  Carly was off playing and David was sitting on the ground with some other kids close to his age.  I glanced up to check on Carly and then looked back down at David.  I found a pile of goldfish crackers on the ground in front of him and his hand going for one.  I scooped him up, causing the cracker in his hand to drop to the ground and realized quickly he had one in his mouth.  With a quick scoop of my finger it was out of his mouth still intact, and slightly soggy.  Another mom had removed the crackers from the area and I began freaking out deep inside (not wanting anyone to know).  Carly had swimming in the afternoon so David would be in child watch, I had something at church so the kids were going to have a babysitter in the evening, and I really needed David Jr to take a nap when we got home so I could pick up the house some - all time that I couldn't helicopter over him and make sure he kept breathing, was getting a rash, etc.  Well David's lunch and nap time went fine,  and he woke up from nap with a nasty, blood speckled diaper.  Confirming that our little man is still allergic to milk.  I made mention of this episode to the girls at child watch and the kids' babysitter and neither reported back anything about his diaper, so I'm assuming he either didn't have a BM or it was comparable to what I had described.  He goes back for allergy testing a few days after his first birthday, but at the moment we know dairy will come back positive.
