Welcome

People have told me to blog for a long time and I always blew them off.  Whats so interesting about my life?  I still am not sure but I wouldn't mind a place I can share the good, bad, frustrating, and exciting in our lives.

A bit about me.  We are BT orthodox Jews living in suburban America.  We have KA"H 5 kids and have been married almost 10 years.  Z our oldest is 8 almost 9, T is 7.5, F is 5 almost 6, ML is 2.5, and MEB is almost 3 months old.  Z and F both have Tourettes Syndrome and OCD.  Z in addition has severe anxiety and ADHD. T, F, ML, and MEB have true IgE mediated food allergies.  Deadly allergies. Z has outgrown his.  B"H!!! What are they allergic to?  Better question- what aren't they allergic to?  In addition ML has eosinophilic esophagitis.  His triggers are the top 8 (fish, eggs, nuts, wheat, shellfish, dairy, peanuts, and tree nuts), barley, sesame, and white potato.  T as well is lactose intolerant.  I am at home with these little crazies having the time of my life.  I spend my time getting creative with our diets, managing their medical issues, and try to make life a little more fun for them.

So, here I go!
