Updates



In recent news:


Dietrich took his first trip to SeaWorld. He had a lot of fun. He was so interested in everything and liked watching the dolphins swim around.

I passed all my midterms for the first time this year. I did really well on one of them and pretty well on the others. But the important thing is that I passed them all! God is so faithful!

I am struggling with the lactose free diet the Dr. put me on. The baby had been having some blood in his stools and the GI peds Dr. thought it might be the lactose in my diet aggrevating his digestive system. It doesn't make sense to me since lactose is broken down by my body, but I'm doing it anyways. It does seem to be helping, but I'm practically going crazy not being able to eat anything I'm used to. But I'll probably loose those last few baby pounds this way!

Dietrich is going to get a forming helmet. He has a flat head in the back and although Steve and I debated whether it was worth it, we have decided to go ahead. It will have a camoflauge pattern on it.

We are starting Dietrich on rice cereal tonight. He's getting a lot more hungry and still waking up two times a night to eat. So hopefully this will help.

That's all for the updates for now. I hope to post sooner next time.

    He is so grown up -- eating cereal already!!!!

    Does this mean that in June he will be eating french fries??? -- I really like to give kids french fries but Beth's baby is all organic so she can't have any.
