Changing Things Up

So...Not too many people know this but as it turns out, I'm sick a lot, meaning every day. I've had a head ache every day for the past 6+ years. Along with the headaches, I get just sick all the time. So, this is what happened. Since my mom has had transverse mylitis, there have been a lot of people to suggest ways for her to walk better, most of which have been more on the homeopathic side of things. Most recently, she was told to try gluten free and watch a video on why it might help. Then she told me that from what she learned from the video, over 60% of people are actually allergic to wheats and what not and that it might help me. Now, typically I'm not into the whole all natural movement, but thought I'd try it for a few months just to see and to every one's amazement....It Does!! I haven't had a headache, flu, symptoms, or a cold in a week and a half and for me, that's a freakin miracle! And just to test it out, I had a cookie the other night and had a headache with in an hour of eating...so weird. But I am SO happy!

Yes, it is quite a lifestyle change because basically EVERYTHING has gluten in it(including twizlers wtf), but so doable. I've decided to try a new recipe every week and then have a little separate blog about it but we'll see if it actually goes through. I'm putting on my blog side bar some good gluten free websites and blogs. Try it out!

So...We Moved

Here we are in Washington and to welcome us it's been raining pert near everyday since we got here. We're loving it though. I organized Amanda's room to make it livable for the next two months and I might just add that she could be on TLC's Buried Alive...really. but we did that and rearranged the bed set and put up curtains...looks real nice. My parents internet is a wee bit slow so I'm just gonna add pictures and call it good. oh and Steven starts school on June 20, so we're excited for that. So here's 11 months. Every month has been my favorite. I love this little girl.
