Lamb 2 doesn't have MSPI, but when he turned a year and we tried milk and dairy foods on him, he was no longer the happy baby we had before. He was fussy and didn't sleep well. My husband and his father don't tolerate milk well. So we decided to put him on the same diet as Lamb 1, a little dairy, but no milk or ice cream. He loves to drink rice milk. He will probably never drink milk either.
So I told the lambs when the Schwan man came last Wednesday they could pick any ice cream to try. They were so excited they didn't go to sleep and the Schwan man didn't show up until 9:30pm! Unfortunately he was out of the ice cream they picked. He said he would stop by today and bring their ice cream and a few other items we had ordered that he didn't have.
So today, Lamb 1 and 2 each had real ice cream for the first time in their lives (with the exception of Lamb 2 having it a few times when he was 1 year old)! They chose Confetti Cake kind. It's full of sugar and sprinkles. They'll probably never be allowed that kind again, but hey, it's their first time! Here they are with their first experience eating real ice cream, not Rice Dream.

I grew up sensitive to milk, I never drank it, but always had yogurt and cheese and did not have ice cream until older. Now I tolerate it fine, but never drink a glass of milk...yuck, never developed a taste for it. But I cook with it and put half and half in my coffee! You are a great mom for being so aware of your kids' needs!
