Ice Cream Cone! Bad Chinese Food

Owen had his first ice cream cone tonight!!! I am so grateful for Whole Foods for selling dairy-free ice cream, and gluten-free cones. So they lie about their organic foods. They gave my son the gift of enjoying ice cream the way it was meant to be enjoyed.

Owen refilled his cone 5 times, and then he was disappointed when the cone... broke. I explained to him that he is suppose to eat the cone. I love these basic life lessons.

I also love friends who make their birthday party Owen friendly. The kids table was filled with only Owen friendly food. I'm so blessed to have supportive friends.

We haven't ordered Chinese food in a long time. We ordered Kung Pao Chicken, and it was filled with nuts. I was so upset that I let nuts into my house. I could feel my stress level go from completely calm, to very stressed. I washed down the counters, chairs, and table. I washed my hands and mouth. We immediately threw away the packaging and took the garbage out of the house. Live and learn. In the end, things went perfectly fine.

Owen played with play doh this morning for 45 minutes, and he didn't have any reaction. Praise God!
