3rd Trimester (What? Already?!?)
Somehow, I blinked, and I’ve entered the 3rd trimester of pregnancy. What? And now the holidays are here, which always fly by in well, a blink. So basically I’m going to have a baby in like, 5 minutes. Am I excited? Yes. I’m so excited to know whether this baby is a he or a…
Read MoreGetting Nowhere
Well, the reduced vomiting thing was short lived. Grayson has woken up the last two days puking, despite the farrel bag and elimination of the medicine I thought was making him sick. Then tonight right after his bath, even before I could get his diaper on, he started retching, screaming and vomiting, and it felt like…

A few updates (mainly for my records- sorry if this post is kind of boring!) Grayson: The last few weeks have been focused on getting his GI issues under control. Even though he’s not vomiting formula, he was still throwing up stomach bile at least twice a day. I think we’ve finally found a solution-…

Goodbye, Sweet Chloe
Yesterday, we said goodbye to our little angel dog Chloe. Wednesday night, Chloe snuggled with Ryan while he watched TV, one last time. One last car ride with Gabby- these two are going to miss each other 🙁 I had my friend at Waggin’ Tails pick her out a new collar and leash- we wanted…

One year ago today, Grayson became a tubie. He had an NG tube placed- what we thought would be a temporary solution to his poor eating, vomiting, and low weight. Seven weeks later, he was not eating anything by mouth, and had surgery to get a PEG tube placed in his tummy, and then a…

Read MoreA Heartbreaking Decision
I haven’t even typed half a sentence on this post and I’m already in tears. As I mentioned in my last post, we have been struggling with some really hard decisions- two things that will drastically affect our family before Baby #2 makes his or her entrance in the world in 2013. The first decision…
Read MoreBlogging Break and G Update
I haven’t written in almost two weeks (or commented, really, so sorry). I’m in another one of those times where there’s a lot going on, but not much I’m wanting to write about. We’re in the midst of some major life-changing decisions for our family, and I’m torn between obsessing over and avoiding the decisions. Anyway,…
Read MoreDoctor Day
Grayson saw his GI doctor this morning. He has been vomiting a lot again (3 times just this morning) and not only is this awful for him, health and comfort- wise, it’s just been a pain. I’ve been getting him dressed at the last minute before we go anywhere and covering him with a huge…
