Kids of EB

[YMZ PE]

We used Horizon organic whole milk with DHA for about a year, then switched to the cheap gallon stuff after the kids were acclimated to the taste of cow's milk. The cheap stuff doesn't taste nearly as good, but they haven't complained yet.

 

[snickerd3]

and I'm not buying 4 different kinds of milk.

minisnick - 2%

mr snick - skim

me - lactose free milk (when I want milk)

 

[SNAPE/SMOTT PE]

We buy unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened cashiew milk. I originally bought the stuff for myself, but my kid loves it.

 

[snickerd3]

I have tried the almond milks too. but when you want that glass of milk it just isn't the same.

tonight is babyfood making night again. snickette is almost out of pears and she is getting tired of the quinoa and avocado, so I might make garlic potatoes for her.

My 1 year old does not want to drink regular whole milk. We even tried mixing a bit of whole milk in his formula, but he can still tell. I thought we would start saving a bunch of money from not buying formula, but I guess it's going to have to wait.

Brings back bad memories of buying Similac. Now if I can only get past the diapers...

If you move south, you may be able to skip the whole milk and go straight to Mountain Dew.

So apparently youngest kids are great for the oldest to practice cutting hair.... #1 (5.5 yo) just cut #3 (19 mos) hair. Needless to say, #1 is not Mrs NJ's favorite child right now, but that's the topic of a different thread.

 

[Ramnares P.E.]

On the bright side at least hair grows back...

Not always...

[Ramnares P.E.]

Evidence? ^^

 

[NJmike PE]

That it is Edward. That it is indeed.

 

[Road Guy]

Just let #3 cut #1's hair as payback!

 

[NJmike PE]

Or I start doing shots of tequila and then shave all their heads bald

 

[akwooly]

I like the tequila idea NJ.

Still buying the organic milk...not with DHA, but 18 years and counting. Not to say that when things get desperate, we don't buy the occasional gallon of regular from the convenience store...

EDIT: Perhaps that's the reason for the "6' 1" and 185#".

 

[akwooly]

Organic whole. We go through 2 gallons a week. My kids would rather drink milk over juice. 2%? Might as well drink water. I love whole milk. Even better if it is non homogenized.

 

[YMZ PE]

Envirotex is making me want to switch back to organic.

I treat myself to the occasional bottle of raw milk. $7 a quart, but so worth it.
