For my Mom
We are slow to get pictures printed out...In fact, I have about 4+ years to print. I guess that's one drawback with a digital camera...it's so easy to upload pics to the computer and then never do anything with them!

Sibling Love
For the most part, P really loves being a big brother. Of course, he's pinched her a couple times...and plugged her nose once while she had her pacifier in (yeesh!) but overall, he's been sweet to her. He likes to hold her and talk 'baby-talk' to her. I'm thinking I should record that and play it back to him when he's 16 or so, ha!

And the Crying Continues
There has been a lot of crying the past couple weeks. Our poor baby assumably has colic...although I've read that for it to be true colic, it has to last for 3 weeks. Maybe it won't last that long. Maybe we'll figure out what is upsetting her. So far, I've determined that spaghetti sauce and peppers & onions are NOT her friend. Some of her problem seems to be from gas pains...so that's why I keep trying to figure out what foods are causing her pain.
The next issue may be my eating dairy. I've cut out milk. It's rice milk or almond milk on cereal for me...but I have not eliminated dairy completely. I crave it. I love milk, ice cream, butter, etc. But, if it's causing M pain-I'll cut it out. It will be hard to go dairy free, especially if she has a cow's milk allergy...because that will mean cutting out all milk proteins, casein, etc. And that is a LOT that I cannot have. How do you eat anything when you go completely dairy free?? Our pediatrician said it would be early for her to be evidencing signs of a cow's milk allergy (especially when this all started, just after she turned 1-week-old) but I may take a diaper in for them to analyze this week. They'll look at it under a microscope. If it's a cow's milk allergy, there will be blood in her stool!
Either way, I have to figure out how to get less of this...
...and more of this!
Isn't this bow fantastic?! I love it. A sweet friend gave it to M as a gift. She got it at PinkBowtique.com. So fun!
