With Fall comes baking and lots of it. I love to cook!! And it is so much more pleasant when the heat from the oven isn't running me out of the kitchen. On a side note, Logan and I are being tested for gluten allergies and he is also being tested for casein (milk protein), egg, and soy allergies. I have been doing tons of recipe research trying to prepare myself for the worst and how this is DRASTICALLY going to change my cooking and the recipes that I know by heart. I hope the results are negative and I hope they are positive. Negative means I don't have to change the way we eat (although, we need to eat healthier than we do, but don't most people?), but then positive means something can be fixed, we have some answers, and I can do that. Do you really know what all gluten is in???? Just about everything! If the tests come back positive then eating out will pretty much be a thing of the past. We shall see...
Last week the boys started DaySchool. Logan attended last year. He was hesitant about going back this year but has been loving it so far. This is Carson's first year and he is LOVING it. They go on Tuesday and Thursday mornings for a couple hours. Those couple hours allow me to really get some school done with Olivia. When the boys are here it takes us every bit of 8-4:00 to get completely finished up. Olivia is loving school this year and is doing so well. She is reading fantastically with such expression and emphasis on those sentences with exclamation marks too. And Leia, well, some days plays in her little kitchen with no complaints at all while we are doing school and other days she thinks she needs a desk with pencils, crayons, and everything else she can't have. Today was a whiny, "Hold Me!!" day. So, what did Mommy do while adding fish to the fish tank? Why of coarse I held the little rascal.
