Happy Baby = Happy Mommy

Graham seems to be feeling a lot better these days. We are still scheduled to go to his GI doctor next Thursday but he has been doing so well that I am thinking he might not go. His doctor did more stool tests this past Monday and they all came back negative - no blood. We are still giving him prevacid and mylanta and it seems to be helping his reflux problem. He also is still having cereal in every bottle. He is getting so big and maybe the cereal is the reason but at this point we have to do what makes him the best. He has been very smiley and chuckles at us and Morgan all the time. It is so cute to watch his expressions when Morgan kisses and talks to him. He knows her little voice and loves when she is around. There is nothing that makes me happier than having happy babies. Here are a couple pictures of our growing boy.



He is losing the hair on the top of his head.



And Morgan doesn't like taking pictures these days. Hopefully she will grow out of it soon.





Don't you think they look alike?

First and Hopefully Last Trip to ER

After a trip to Graham's doctor Friday morning, we continuted to monitor him through the day but nothing changed so his doctor suggested we go on in to the ER to have more tests run. They did an xray to look at his stomach and everything looked okay. They next tested his stools and it came back positive meaning there is still blood in his stools. The doctor then ordered a sonogram to get a closer look at his stomach. Thankfully, those results came back fine too so the doctor referred Graham to a GI doctor. He has been on Nutramigen for his milk allergy now for a month but it doesn't seem to be working for him. The doctor said he may need to be put on Elecare formula but that will be the GI doctor's call. We have an appointment with Dr. Hunt at Cook's scheduled for April 1st. For now we he are continuing to treat his reflux with prevacid twice a day, mylanta and we are adding cereal to all of his bottles. He was better through the weekend but he is just so drowsy. Here are a few recent pictures of our kiddos. Even though Graham has been pretty fussy the last couple days, we have still managed to get some smiles out of him. He has the sweetest little smile. And Morgan - she is just a happy talkative toddler these days.
