I Can't Eat What?

So our daughter was diagnosed with a milk protein allergy. The doctor tells me since I nurse, all dairy and soy consumed by me is a no-no. What am I not aloud to drink besides milk? The Dr. hands me a list of words I've never seen, most of which are over 30 letters long. "It's more like what can you have?", he says.Did you ever look to see what all milk is in? It's in EVERYTHING!!!! And, so is Soy!

Here's a list of what is left that I am aloud to have:
meat
vegetables (no butter, because it has milk in it)
special breads only
club crackers- only the plain kind
rice dream milk (which is pretty good)

Some nights, I go mad. Tonight, is one of them. I am craving CHEESE!!!!! Cheese enchiladas, cheese over my plain vegetables, cheese pizza, cheese by itself, macaroni and cheese, baked potato and cheese, lasagna with CHEESE.I tried the vegan cheese and it tasted like plastic. What a waste.
One night, we tried to make chocolate pudding with the rice dream and it never thickened. So, I drank it. It actually wasn't bad.

Shot Day

Today was shot day. After a ton of research, we decided to go with a delayed schedule. Right now, our little burrito is asleep and blowing spit bubbles. She is snoring a little, too.

I was so nervous and am so glad that it is over with. Hubby is at a playoff game tonight, so we are flying solo here. TGIF. I couldn't take another day of teaching. I am on turkey activity overload. I swear, the kids already have Christmas fever and I think it's thanks to that one radio station that is already playing carrols.

Here's hoping those shots don't give burrito a fever.

Here's hoping that hubby makes the playoffs tonight.

Now the dog is snoring too. Gaaaaaa! It's only 8:30. She must be dreaming of food. Our dog loves McDonald's cheeseburgers, btw.

I WISH I could have cheese!! Cheeseburgers on the brain.

I am thankful for our daughter. She is so worth not eating cheese.
