- Mood:
- Music/Books: "Raw Truth" It's a cookbook, well not really as it's about raw foods so nothing is cooked.
- Weather: pleasant, enough for me to clean out the van today.
Hey all. Before I forget, I have a question for you...Did you know that milk is sweet???? I found that out after this first weeks on the Maker's Diet. There is basically no sugar. You are allowed some berries, but that's all folks. It's been pretty hard. Poor Flannery has had it the worst. You can ask my sister, Tracy, she can tell you. She heard her screaming while we were on the phone. Screaming for Gummies, peanut butter and jelly, and something else that I have forgotten by now. My body is slowly adjusting to the no sugar. I woke two nights ago at 4 AM with the shakes. Today I was able to get up at 7 AM and shower before that familiar uneasy feeling struck. But for the rest of the day (starting close to mid morning) I feel great. Anyways, with no sugar, and with me feeling yucky the other day I decided to grab a small glass of milk. And it tasted sweet!!! WOW. Amazing.
Ok, onto other things...the girls and I (except for the baby) got the stomache bug. 
Wow, what a horrid day. By the evening Isabella was still sick. Everyone else was sick for a total of about 6 hours. She was still going strong. She looked horrible and started to get some weird stuff going on, including blurred vision. Well that just about freaked me out (OK I was totally freaked out) so I took her to the ER. It was close to 9 PM when we got there. They took us pretty much right away. They gave her some IV fluids and some potassium. THey have this wonderful cream that numbs your skin so you don't feel the needle going in. It worked like a charm. Anyways, we were there for 3 hours and got home around 12:30 AM. Can you say "tired"? But she looked sooooo much better!!
We went to our town's Christmas Tree Lighting 
the other night. It was great. The first thing we came to was a horse drawn "sleigh". It was this pretend sleigh as it has wheels on it. But is was being pulled by two beautiful Percheron horses. I am sure you know that the horses were the hit of the night!! That's all the girls talked about. We walked down the block to the tree, we had missed the actual lighting of it. They has a small stage that different groups were singing on. They were singing Christmas carols. Then we went home.
Saoirse is a holy roller. 
Hee, hee, Isabella was one as well. She loves to roll all over the place and she is quick too. I tried to give her some solid foods again yesterday and tonight. We tried it a month ago and she had a lot of problems with it (her intestines). She does not care for the baby rice cereal. So I tried putting some mashed peas in it, but I don't think the peas were mashed enough. Either that or she has my sister's tastes. 
Well I am going to attempt to put up the pics from the zoo.
