Today was a terrible rotten awful miserable day in the land of Kelly. Honestly, I can't think of many things that could have made it worse, unless you include practical things like death and traumatic events. I woke up crying and only took 2 breaks to stop. I won't bore you with my drama, but instead will fast forward to the climax.
Changing Luke's diaper this afternoon I spotted blood. My heart melted into the floor and my soul was wretched with guilt. Looks like my second little boy is also allergic to milk. Obviously I won't know for sure for a while, but experience tells me that this is likely the culprit. Didn't the allergist tell me not to consume dairy products just in case? I must be so selfish and thoughtless.
I guess I'll blame everything else on hormones. Much much thanks to Katie for calling at the right time and swooping in to save us from temporary insanity.
I know I know, tomorrow is another day and will be better. Especially since Dave'll be home.

Oh Kel, I am sorry. You are one dedicated momma to be able to resist dairy in order to give your babies what is best for them.
Kelly, you are hardly selfish! Don't beat yourself up!! If he is anything like Easton, Luke is just fine and probably doesn't feel sick or yucky. (hello, can we say peanut butter brownie???)
Please Kelly, call me next time it is a rotten day. That is what sisters are for, right?
Kelly,
I'm so sorry you had such a bad day. Don't worry little Luke will be great in no time. At least you know what you can and can't eat. I would so struggle with not eating any dairy products so I think you are great since you nurse him still.
Kelly, you are a wonderful mother. Tom hates milk too. Easton really eats all the good things, and I should avoid milk (dairy) in my diet so it has helped me to find things to use in place of dairy while I am thinking about Easton.
You are an awesome mother. Tom hates milk too. It has helped my diet (non-dairy) to find things Easton can have. I hope it will help keep my chlosterol in check.
He'll be fine-babies are very resilient! You are a great mom and we all forget stuff! I nearly cut off Mekhi's finger tip when he was born because I forgot their nails are like skin at first! THey survive us!
