Edie is a great traveller but we had a hard time getting her to sleep and staying asleep. At five months old,

We are finally gonna try to eat Paleo. I always make excuses about why we can't do it (how can I give up the cheese!?) but Edie's having some unfortunate (and persistent) skin issues, and her pediatrician recommended I restrict my diet. She says to cut out wheat, dairy, corn, soy, and eggs. It pretty much aligns with the Paleo lifestyle (which prioritizes meat and veggies). My one modification is I'm not cutting eggs, because I really haven't been eating them, and I'm sure they're not the culprit. Today we had to give Edie baby Benadryl to ease some crazy skin reaction, and I figure why not try Paleo? So tonight I made bacon-wrapped chicken strips with sun-dried tomatoes, and kale sauteed in olive oil. SO. GOOD.

I just ordered a bunch of groceries on Amazon Fresh that fit within our new menu. I not a huge fan of Amazon Fresh, because I can get cheaper food at our store up the street, but with a baby in bed and work in the morning, ordering food while looking at Paleo recipes online is damn convenient. And that's what I'm paying extra for. It's gonna be on our doorstep before we even get up!
It's great to be back in Seattle. We had a good trip home, spent time with our wonderful friends and families (and they got some QT with Edie), but it's just so nice to sleep in our own beds and fall into our familiar routines.
