u want to be in an altered state everyday?

we share a birthday

any new pics?

it's called FPIES, she's sensitive to food proteins, no milk no soy (putting her on formula would mean special hypoallergenic stuff) and apparently all grains(also no beans, squashes, asparagus, strawberries, blackberries, and potatoes, sweet potatoes also no go). so far i can't eat any grains including quinoa that doesnt give her poop problems so she def cant eat any cereal. i m starting to give her some fruit, she really cant get a full meal out anything yet. maybe by a year old she can handle more stuff. also cinnamon and cocoa affects her. but she grows fine, a bit on the short side but high in weight and head circumference. she wasnt even colicky, the blood poop freaks us out but she didnt care, barely ever cries. 

it's an interactive feature of the site, they plan to expand it so i m still doing heads for them.

"inspirational" to yourself?

my life has undergone a drastic change (long story short baby has gut problems so if i eat something she cant handle she pooped blood, for a few months, we stopped the blood because all i eat is lamb and some veg/fruits. and she should outgrow this, at some point). i cant do many things i use to love like eat out or bake (now once in a while and only for evan) or even cook meals evan and i could both eat (he s still not eating meat). I take joy in things that i do have. i love watching my baby grow and learn (trying to hoard all the cute memories), spending what little time we have together as a family (we r both swamped with work). i m stressed but happy that professionally i've hit a new high  www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/ 

i have been photographing and sketching more, looking forward to the day when baby and i could both eat everything.
