One week sans milk....

Dairy is my favorite food group hands down. I love milk, cheese, yogurt, icecream, you name it! One of my favorite treats is a plate full of plain sharp cheddar cheese with a glass of chocolate milk. So, when the Dr told me last week that she thinks Micah may have an indirect dairy allergy, and that she wanted me to give up milk, it was pretty tough to take! She wants me to go off all dairy for at least 1 mo. If it helps, I will have to stay off of it until I stop breastfeeding, and since Micah WILL NOT take formula, that will be for 6 more months. She thinks it may be part of his reflux, eczema, and general irritability. I really hope it helps b/c I just feel so bad for the poor kid!
We had a little giving up milk party (well, not really a party, it was just Cory and I) with homemade Reeces and Rolo shakes. We made the shakes after the boys went to bed however, and for any of you who have put Rolos in a blender, it is pretty loud. I didn't want to wake the boys up, so I went into our bathroom. Cory thought that was hilarious and had to take a picture. So, as of tomorrow, I will be one week sans milk. I sure hope it works!
