Dairy eater!

 I posted all about Josh's test results and am here, about a month and a half later to say that things are going SO WELL with Josh and food.  We brought back in wheat, fairly quickly, and dairy was hesitantly added over time.  About 2 weeks ago we went to Dicky's Barbeque after church and Josh had his very first ever ice cream cone.  He loved it!

We've seen no backlash from adding both foods into his diet and, although we slightly watch the foods in his "mild intolerant  list, I feel like Josh is just another normal kid now.  For so long, I felt the opposite for Josh.  Yay for normalcy.  He's still a pip squeak, but someone has to hold the 10th percentile, so why not him and who knows, maybe he will hit a big growth spurt at some point.  The funny thing is that Emily is built like Josh as well.  June and Elizabeth have similar (to each other) strong, hearty builds and Josh and Emily have a longer, lean look.  Emily is in the 60th percentile so she's no lightweight but maybe there really is just something to having petite built kids. :) And we are ever continuing to struggle to get Josh's behavior and emotions on track, but the important thing right now that the kid can eat! :)  We're working on the rest.  Rome wasn't built in a day. ;)
