Turban Girl

.

I was just having fun with Alyson this morning when I had to wash her after another poop incident. She is only two and four month old but look much bigger than her age, especially in this photo. She tests her boundaries these days and Mike and I are determined this time to be firm. She didn't get dinner last night because she refused to come and wash her hands. She cried and begged later, but we stuck with the decision. She was more cooperative today.

Our friend Liz brought a Gluten and Casein free brownies she baked this morning. They are very good and taste indifferent to the ones with wheat flour. I bribed Sean to eat his lunch and dinner, using the brownies as the prize. It worked beautifully! Later when I went to Albertsons, I found a gluten free cake, brownie and cookie mixes from Betty Croker. I think they are new. I was pretty happy to have found them and bought a box of yellow cake mix. I am beginning to think that GFCF diet isn't so bad.

I feel a lot better today. I think the low calorie stint was making me very tired. I did a quick run around the neighborhood at 9:00 pm, watched a TV show with Mike and off to bed now!
