Fruit Overdose

Last Sunday, we inadvertently (and very unpleasantly for Hana) found out what happens when she eats too much fruit - like strawberries, several plums, oranges, and lots of blackberries from the empty lot next door - all in one day. She poops and it STINGS! I haven't heard her scream so loud since we took her for her kidney tests. She was hysterical. Wouldn't let us get anywhere near her. The rash went away by the next day, but the poor girl was miserable. We kept her off fruit for 2 days after that.

Other than that, she continues to be a happy chatty Cathy. We've had a bit of "regression" in terms of nursing. We were just nursing in the morning, but in the last week or so, she's been asking for milk several time a day and I've given in a few times to end the whining and tears. So we might be back to a more regular 2-3 times a day, unless I decide to cut her off. On the one hand, I hate to do it, because she enjoys it and it's good for her. On the other hand, I don't mind once a day, but 2-3 times a day is a bit much. Plus I can't dye all that gray hair she's given me until I wean her, because of the chemicals!
