Sunday sampler

I bought this one because I couldn’t NOT buy it.  Judge away.  I’m going to grow up one day, maybe. Finished off this bad boy for breakfast. After painting I went to Costco with V and she ate ALLLL the samples.  Talk about a different shopping experience. I hardly fed her lunch as a result.  And got her to bed earlier so she wouldn’t sleep past 4.  We had swimming plans that I did NOT want to miss. I wasn’t too hungry for lunch because I got a Starbucks on the way home from Costco…. Read more >

Girls day

I had a lovely Saturday morning with ma girl. My ride or die babe.  Munching on tomatoes and green beans and strawberries from the garden as she pushes herself around the yard. I regret not planting sweet 100s this year because, while the tomato plants are THRIVING, they aren’t yielding a ton of fruit like the other varieties have in the past.  I don’t even remember what these yellow ones are?? New jar of nut butter!  Ignore the gymnastics fall schedule under there.  I didn’t realize how distracting it was when I was taking the… Read more >

It’s Friday, I’m in love

With Stroller Strides.  Ok, I promise I’ll stop waxing poetic about this amazing group after this.  I only got the once a week membership, but here I am two weeks in and I want to go ALL THE TIME.  I went twice the first week I joined, and now twice again this (second) week…soooo let’s do the math.  One extra $10 class each week adds up to enough to tip me over into the unlimited category.  So clearly I should just buy the unlimited pass and go all the time.  Except that the only reason… Read more >

Maintenance for a month

Since P reached maintenance for his cow milk OIT, we have been waiting for a full month to try out dairy… Per our MD’s protocol you should wait at least a month after graduating before adding in new dairy.  And from there you should start with amounts of protein <4 g (because his dose is 1/2 cup whole milk which is equivalent to 4 g of protein).  After that you can proceed however you wish.  This is freeing and exciting and nerve-wracking all at once.  But mostly exciting. On day 1 he tried: 1 tsp… Read more >

For fun

It seems like the parents of Davis are the best of the best when it comes to conscientiousness about P’s allergies.  I already knew my close friends were fantastic, but time and time again I am blown away by how sweet and thoughtful others are.  I bring snacks all the time for our paint & sing class because it’s a good way for me to know that they will be safe for P, but technically it’s supposed to be a rotating job.  One of the moms brought in all these vegan and GF treats last… Read more >
