no more happiness!

*5 points to the first person who identifies who I'm quoting in the title of this post... and Kellers, you are disqualified, especially you JK because you are the one who first reminded me of it!*

So guess what... a certain little person has felt like this lately:

So a certain momma took her to the doctor last week and the doctor is suspecting reflux. The first step in providing some relief for the little person is no more dairy for mom.Now, if you know me, you know how I love my cheese, ice cream, etc. It's been tough but I am proud to say I've stuck with it for about 5 days now. I feel light as a feather (what I look like is another story) and Brynlee seems to be feeling a bit better. She is happier during the day but has still been arching her back, pulling, and thrashing sometimes when she eats. We may start meds if she doesn't continue to improve... I'm hoping we can help her be more comfortable by this weekend, when we leave for our loooong trip to TN for vacation with Ryan's family.


Now for your viewing pleasure, I present some recent pics of Little...


B still needs to make her video debut here on the blog... if I could only figure out how to upload them!

  7. NO DAIRY???!!! We bought a ton of groceries last week and we were commenting on just how much dairy we eat. If she goes on the meds, can you have your dairy back? I am sorry she is not feeling too great. Hope you find what works...and eat your ice cream too :)
