Milk Rant


I have been reading about weaning... We have almost made it to 1 year! We have had our ups and downs. I am relived that it is almost over. I plan on cutting her off as quickly as possible.

I have tried to give her a little cow milk and she hates it. She is also not a fan of yogurt.

As someone who also hates milk I understand. Why do I hate milk, it tastes gross and I do not digest it well. It makes my stomach cramp up. I also can not do yogurt. Soy milk is too sweet and chalky. I can do ice cream, chocolate milk, and other dairy products very sparingly.

Although when it comes to cooking and baking I love milk.

I have been reading and have come to the decision that the human body was not meant for cows milk to be as big a part of our diet as it is.

So what are we going to do.
More research
Talk to her doctor
and

Carrot juice
soy
spinach
beans
kale
oats
peas
brown rice

possibly a calcium supplement powder

when I started writing this I thought it was going to be more intriguing but no it is kind of blah

Guns, Cars, and a Walking Baby

I do not think there is much else on Ty's mind...


Lets start with that BABY...

Happy St. Patrick's Day


Check out her new soft sole shoes from Cambria Laine
They are a great transition from socks to real shoes

We had some great Sunny days and spent some time outside on the deck
when the wind wasn't blowing

She is getting so big


Cars

This is our new gas guzzling car... Ty wanted the big engine
it is a 2006 Dodge Charger 6.1 Liter V8 SRT-8

This is the AK-47 Ty just got
This is a 1905 .38 Police Colt or something like that
plus a 30-6 and a .22 and a 12 gauge that he has had for a while

Getting So Big


Allyson took a few steps today!

She also says "Dada".
Says "kissss" for kitty.
Does sign language for food.
Says "whats that?" over and over.
Says "umm umm" when she wants what someone else is eating.
She also slept 5 hours straight last night which she has not done in a very long time!

She is getting so big!

We finally got her expensive crib we ordered over 2 months ago!
She isnt a fan but is learning to like it.
