Levi goes gluten Free

Yup, that's right. Our little leavers is gluten free. It wasn't entirely because of the book below, but that definitely motivated me to just DO IT! We have suspected for months that he was but were way too lazy to actually start the diet. But after I read the book I was like duh!

We started about 3 weeks ago and it has been great! His poops are solid, he is less whiny, not so emotional, not as picky with food and best of all, he doesn't get crazy after he eats! He would literally be bouncing off the walls if he ate gluten which was our first clue months ago. He has just been so much happier which means a much happier family all around.

The only gluten that the rest of the family eats is sandwich bread and Levi just has his own that is actually really tasty and made with Teff flour. He has been sad a couple of times saying things like "I love gluten" or "everything has gluten in it" but he is a great sport and there are SO many good things to eat that he can have. Anyway, that's what we've been focused on these past weeks. The End.

WOW that is amazing. More amazing that I had NO idea that you went gluten free. It is great that everyone else eats less gluten too. I am so impressed. Looking forward to linking to this post from my blog. Congratulations on taking such a huge step--in the middle of expecting another child. Looking forward to catching up one of these days.
