A couple things have been going through my head this week....asking the question Am I crazy? Example one: I want more kids! We have 2 now, but I want more, like 3 or 4 more! But, there are days that I can barely handle the two I have :) I came from a family of five and I loved it...for the most part! My parents come from big Polish/German families with at least 10 kids. The boys may drive me crazy, but there are so many things that make up for it! They may pick on each other (crazy how they know how to do that at such a young age), but Jamie is such a good big brother. He is very protective of Oliver and loves to help with him. I did decide that a new sibling would have to wait until next year though :) Hopefully it will be a girl, Jamie keeps asking for a sister....such a hard thing to explain to a three year old.
Example two: I am going to try being gluten free for a few weeks. Maybe not that crazy though. I have been having knee pain for like 12 years now and finally had some blood work done to try and figure it out. It came back saying that I had some sort of auto-immune problem...which could be my asthma....so more tests were done, looking at thyroid problems, food issues and they all came back clear. I guess that is good, but I was hoping for something, at least to answer all the questions. I do know that people can be tested for gluten issues and have them come back clear. My doctor did say that food issues like gluten, wheat, lactose intolerance...can cause arthitis problems. I am lactose intolerant. I used to take pills for that but they got to be expensive and a pain in the butt. Now, I'm going try the gluten free thing and work on my lactose intolerance thing and hope that things get better. I am hoping that it won't be that hard to do. I was looking at the foods we eat and a lot of them are gluten free, so that is good. I'm going to start slow so I don't go crazy with too many changes at once! I will defintately keep you all updated. Right now though, time for bed soon. We all have this nasty cold that is going around :(
