Weekend Recap



This weekend had it's ups and downs. Friday morning I took Ellery to the GI doctor. . .by their scale she's 16lbs 8oz. - growing like a weed :) Dr. M upped her Zantac and told me that I could go ahead and put her back on regular formula. YAY! *or so I thought*

Saturday morning John got up with Ellery and forgot to give her the good start instead of the hypoallergenic formula. No problem. At her 11am feeding I gave her applesauce and a bottle with Good Start. She ate it fine. . all seemed okay. We went to my parents (where by the way Ellery tried out the pool. . as you'll see in a moment she did NOT like it ROFL - it's freezing cold right now!!!). At my parents we had to give her her 3pm bottle - no good start b/c we forgot it so we just gave her the hypo. formula. She wouldn't drink it.. she wouldn't eat her cereal. .nothing. All of a sudden she just started puking everywhere......she seemed fine afterwards.

7pm rolls around and I'm worried b/c now she's missed a feeding - we mix 2 scoops hypo formula to 1 scoop regular and begin the feeding. This time she keeps it down for about 20 minutes :(. I called the pediatrician who told us to switch back to the hypo 100% and call Dr. M today. argh. She was fine all day yesterday though for father's day.

We had a very nice day - John got to sleep in - and I made cinnamon rolls for him. Ellery gave him a mousepad with her picture on it.. . I gave him the radio remote for his Ipod and Belle gave him a bottle of fancy BBQ sauce from Williams Sonoma. The rest of the day was spent at my parents with my family.

Here are some pics from our weekend:

I think the photo of her screeching like a maniac says it all :) I'm sure she'll learn to appreciate the water more as it gets hotter.

Hopefully you guys can figure out the whole feeding thing soon, I know that the specialty ones can cost so much and it's horrible to see them sick and uncomfortable.

I empathize with you on the feeding situation however ours has not been as severe as yours. I'm sorry she had a upset moment or two but it's nice that John was able to enjoy his first father's day.

I love the picture of her in the pool!
