We all remember Sasha's pesky dairy allergy, right? Too much milk or cheese or yogurt and her cheeks turn red and she breaks out in mystery hives? You know, the one that didn't actually show up on a CAP-RAST test in spite of its painful obviousness when she, oh, you know, had too much yogurt?
Well. We think that just might be all done.
I came to realise over the past few weeks that we haven't seen the milk-related red cheeks out of her in a long, long time, and so over the past few days we've been letting her amp up the amount of real cow dairy she gets in a day. She's been drinking Danimals and eating string cheese and then having real cow milk with dinner all on the same day! Mac and cheese with an ice cream chaser? No problem! And so far, so good. No red cheeks, no hives, no mysterious stomach upsets.
At her four-year check-up, the pediatrician observed that she seems to be growing healthier and healthier as she gets bigger. And you know, some days, I can even believe it.
My kitchen is: Eh, easy come, easy go. It's really quite clean, I just really need to cycle the dishwasher and get rid of the dirty dishes on the counter.

BTW, you should have Matt name his pictures that he has been drawing. Oh wait, those are Sasha's!?? Looks like Matt's.
