Just Rice.


Let me just say, the other day we stopped at Panda Express and Jacky was starving, so I had to put my thinking cap on. I saw a man next to me order the white rice, so I asked them if it was just rice, no oils, additives or anything. They said no, just rice, I know that not all FPIES kids can have rice, but Jacky can. We snagged a ketchup packet from the Wing Stop next door. So he ate a huge bowl of white rice, mixed with ketchup. He ate the whole bowl. I know that the rice couldn't have been that different from the rice I serve. He just felt completely normal, sitting at a restaurant, eating out of the same type of bowl as his brother. It was a happy moment.

In Love!

Jack is now 36 pounds and 38 inches tall.

Some of that weight can be contributed to Cherrybrook Kitchen.

Jack just LOVES to bake their yellow cake with chocolate and white frosting. He feels just like a "normal" kid, sticking his fingers in the frosting jar.
