We have recently discovered that dairy does not settle well with Samuel. This was confirmed after going on a no-dairy diet for about a week and then accidentally eating eating some cheese fries with ranch dressing. The following day gave one fussy kid and a very tired, stressed mother. Yes, this means I am not eating dairy. This includes such favorites as ice cream (and Sonic just had to start their 99 cent shakes promo), cheese, ranch dressing, and anything with cream such as Alfredo. Sigh. It is all worth it if it means that Samuel sleeps better and is a happier baby overall.
Every cloud has a silver lining. For instance, I get to indulge myself in as many sno-cones as I want. Not only are they cheap, but there is a sno-cone place right next to Sonic - so Carlin can get a shake and I can get a sno-cone. I also got a sno-cone maker for my birthday and can make sno-cones for myself for free. Another thing I recently discovered while hanging out with a couple of my friends is that Hastings offers a soy milk option for my oh so favorite Frozen Hot Chocolates! MMM-mmmmm. I can still have my favorite drink just substitute soy milk for regular milk. Woohoo!
I am also hoping that this diet will mean weight-loss for me!

that does kinda stick but I had no idea hastings had frozen hot chocolate YYUUMMM, I loved their regular hot chocolate (plus irish cream and whip cream) but frozen...I'm sad, i may need to move back now on account of that ;)
Oh you poor girl. I love dairy. But, on the bright side my boys seemed to be a somewhat sensitive to dairy as well and they outgrew it (as most do). Here's to hopin' it doesn't last long.
Oh, I soooo know what you're talking about. Let me know if you need any tips, recipes, etc. It seems pretty bleak, but it's not all bad. Not to mention that it really helps the baby weight drop.
