We seem to have the reflux under control although it likes to show up even more at night. And who could have thought that a baby on mommy's milk could have colic? Jeffrey had a milk allergy and was on a special (and very expensive!) formula and we wanted to avoid that route with Grant. Sure enough he is also allergic to milk and soy and also has trouble with mommy's milk too. Not the milk itself but the speed at which it comes out. Here we are 7 weeks later and I'm still learning new techniques to get past this problem. I am ready for solid foods but at the same time I don't want my baby to grow up so quickly.
The boys and I stayed at Nana and Papa's house for a few days earlier in the week and we had a good time. It made me appreciate Shane and his help with taking care of the boys even more. Mom has back problems and cannot hold Grant for very long.
So far this summer Jeff has gone to a summer day camp that was offered to our neighborhood. It was an all day camp (8-5 pm) for 5 days. They had all kinds of activities from board games to swimming. He was exhausted by the end of the day and got the much needed exercise. He also started going to VBS at our church right after school was out for the summer but ended up getting sick after the first day. He was disappointed about not getting to go. I plan on getting him into swim lessons before the summer is over...he loves to swim. I think we may have found the one sport that he enjoys. Luckily the schools around here have swim teams and I hope that he continues to like the sport.
Here are some pics:
I forgot to turn the flash on in this pic but it is the first 'smiling' pic I have of him:
Hope every one's summer is going well.
