The Bottomless Pit

So I had hoped Little Boy's appetite would be at least a little curbed now that he's on insulin. But today he's been ferocious. He ate 3 eggs, 2 pieces of sausage, 2 pieces of bacon, half an English muffin w/ sugar free jelly, a small bowl of cheerios w/milk, and a drink of water. No sooner was he done, he was asking how long until snack time.

So for a snack he had a dozen Quakes. And he was soon asking for lunch. I wanted to wait before I took his blood sugar; it should be high after eating his snack. So when I took it, it was only 66! Eeek. I gave him a small can of apple juice he had saved from the hospital and checked it again in 10 minutes. 110 - whew!

He ate two hotdogs on the bun, a 1/2 cup of SF pistachio pudding, a helping of green beans, and a cheese stick for lunch. Plus his water. He finished and asked me to hold him on the couch b/c his belly was hurting.

NO KIDDING.

So the kids and DH are down for a nap and that's where I'm headed, too.
