EmMilAlly, W still hasn't outgrown any of his food allergies and I'm still BF, so I'm still on that crazy diet. Butter is a no-go for us, as are all trace and hidden ingredients. It sucks, but I've found that it's not that bad once I got over the initial shock.
A heads up that switching to formula doesn't always work. Even the dairy-free formulas use dairy derived proteins, and 10% of dairy allergic babies have reactions.

@ceci8876 - I sometimes feel awkward talking about my house or having people over because we got the right house at the right time for the right price. We stretched finances a little to afford it at the time but definitely wouldn't be able to afford it if we were looking today. I feel guilty that we lucked out and a number of friends who are looking now are not able to find anything remotely as nice for a decent price.
@ceci8876 don't feel bad about your house! We went through the same thing when we moved here. Our house is a zillion times nicer than what we had growing up. It was really tough to not feel that way. We would even go so far as to tell people even in passing how we could afford it, not like it was any of their business. It gets better. I think it says a lot about the kind of people you are, you're the opposite of what you're afraid to be- showy. If you were showy, then you obviously wouldn't have these worries.
@ceci8876 I know the feeling. We got a beautiful house for an awesome deal. It was a foreclosure, bought through a HUD auction. This was my dream house and I never thought I would actually get it. Sometimes I feel the need to mention how I got it when people compliment me on it. You worked hard and deserve your house. Your house is beautiful. You shouldn't feel guilty at all.

I sometimes feel self-conscious about my house. I had some friends over today and I noticed that I felt hyper aware of not coming across as "showy". I also noticed that I kept making self depricating comments as I showed them around. What the fuck is that? I know that we worked hard for this house. We love this house and we are proud of it. I don't want to feel like I don't deserve this, like this is above my station in life.
I hear you. Be proud of what you've worked for, lady! That house is beautiful.

I watch one episode of Santa Clarita Diet and hated it. Which leads into my late UO; I don't think Drew Barrymore is a good actress. She is cute and quirky and has great style for the most part, but she seems to play the same character every time.

Drew doesn't bother me, but I didn't care for the series either. It's trying to be way too much like Dexter IMO. Even down to the music. Michael C. Hall made serial murdering (so much) better.
