Shortly after Grace was born, Natalie came down with these itchy red bumps on her feet. The doctor diagnosed it as everything under the sun- when I would have appreciated more for him to say he honestly had no flippin' clue why or what they were. Grace then came down with them when she hit toddler-hood only on her face. It was a common sight at preschool to see Grace with band aids on her face because of the bumps. After specialists and tests, we were to keep her away from peanuts, eggs, and all dairy products. Oh, yea sure! That was realistic for me!
Gracie became the Queen of Jelly Sandwiches (it's the only thing she could eat!). A friend of mine predicted that when she grew up, Grace would be a connoisseur of jelly and open her own shop. Every morning for breakfast, Grace has two jelly sandwiches- cut into a total of 8 pieces. It's the same ritual.... (M) Gracie, what would you like for breakfast?......(G) What do we have?.........(M) Cereal, toast, bananas, bagel- what would you like?........(G) 10 jelly sandwiches........ (M) 8....... (G) okay. It's like I'm in the movie Groundhog Day. This morning I told her she was going to turn into a jelly sandwich. I even told her about Nikki's thoughts for her future jelly store. Grace asked me if she has liked jelly sandwiches her whole life ~"ya know since I was 4"

OH, how cute is she. I love that she is so adorable. I miss making those jelly sandwiches. Thanks for the memories!!
Awhhh how cute!! I love me some jelly too! :)
LOL I'm not a real jelly fan myself! Good thing I can eat other stuff or I'd starve! LOL
Does Natalie have to stay away from all that stuff, or her foot thing was just a flukey deal?
