Due to Tyler's test results, we considered it wise to test Malakai. This morning we checked and found that his results came in positive. As we were reading the results, of course he was in the kitchen munching down on some wheat puff cereal. The test measures the units of antibodies raised against gluten in your body. Anything over 10 is a positive result for gluten sensitivity. Tyler's level was 23 and Malakai's was 45. Now we will be changing Malakai to a gluten free diet. Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to make some good cheap gluten free crackers. Feeding a toddler can be tricky even without being gluten free.
On a positive note we have been making progress on making good gluten free foods, such as - crepes, bread sticks, some cookies, and many good dinners. The hardest part is in baking, such as - breads, cakes, muffins, and brownies. We would like to tell everyone thank you for being so supportive. Your thoughtfulness has been much appreciated, and made transitioning to gluten free much easier.
These pictures aren't related to this post, but they are cute. Malakai very much enjoyed "carrying" Kayden on his back. And Kayden at least didn't mind.
