So cute.. it's scary. Happy Halloween!




Happy Halloween from AZ! Luke is doing better after a visit to the pediatrician yesterday and some western medicine for upper GI reflux. Luke had been fussy all week and up for most of the night Tues and Wed. There was general unhappiness about this..




Luke only grew 2 1/2 oz this last week, which is not desired (4 oz minimum expectation), so we go back Monday to recheck weight after he received medicine that allows him to be more comfortable, thus sleep more. We are giving him different formula too, that is easier on his belly. Seems to be working, and our boy is sleeping more often and eating more.




Haylen is practically back to her pre pregnancy weight - don't hate her because she is beautiful. Although, John hid the scale from her, because weight is an unhelpful outcome measure of her being healthy - due to increased milk production and muscle weight from baby carrying.



Luke is on a weight reduction strategy, however, largely based in poop production. It looks like deli mustard and finds its way everywhere. This is particularly true during a diaper change when Luke adds in his calisthentics - wild arms and leg motions meant to challenge new mommies and daddies. More of a trick than a treat..

That is the cutest little pumpkin I've ever seen! Jeron and I have been looking at the blog and we love it. You guys are hilarious! We're so glad to see your little Luke is doing well and hope he can gain the desired weight. Love you guys.

Thanks, Heather. We hope you guys are doing well and that the headaches have lessened. Dont exclude the possibility that Jeron is the cause of all your problems. Love you too!
