Acid Reflux = no fun

It has indeed been a tough week. Miss P decided it would be fun to try out acid reflux. HA! Not fun at all is what she has decided. About Monday or Tuesday she started getting extremely fussy, spitting up way more, grunting and groaning and just wasn't herself. We tried gas drops, gripe water but nothing was working. After chatting with my sister, we diagnosed her with acid reflux (we are undercover doctors). Lucas has acid reflux as well and she was showing the same signs as him. We have an appointment scheduled for Friday, August 16th but there was no way I was going to be able to wait that long. So we made a appointment for last Saturday. Sure enough, she has acid reflux. She was given a prescription and is now slowly on the mend. The doctor says it takes about 3-4 days to fully start working so until then we have been propping her up at night in her bouncy seat and trying not to lay her down flat for long. She will let you know when she gets a irritated, that's for sure. It truly has been the worst seeing her in pain and not being able to do anything about it. Thank goodness the meds are kicking in and she is doing much better.

Due to Presley having acid reflux and us trying to get into the doc's, Nick and Laleh weren't able to make it up on Saturday to meet her. Was I ever bummed about this as I was looking forward to them meeting her for weeks now. P did pick out this amazing outfit all by herself to meet Laleh, so hopefully she will still fit in it come the beginning of October when we plan on venturing down to Vancouver to see everyone...

I think I have already thanks Jo for letting us borrow this amazing seat but this seat has truly been our lifesaver (until this acid reflux thing). But truly...P loves this seat and it's great to put her in if you need to get things done. She just snuggles down into it and sleeps.




P's thing lately has been to be wide awake in the morning's after her breakfast. Here she is wide awake, loving life! And my word her hands look HUGE in this pic. She is like a little puppy who will grow into her hands and feet!


Yesterday we went to Presley's first BBQ at Trisha and Shane's house for Liv's Suprise Party! It was so much fun and P did great! She told me too that she "had a blast and can't decide if she wants to date Elliott or Miller, so has to think about it for awhile!" Pics to come soon!


I also need to post pics from Friday. Kam, Jenae and the boys (Elion and Isaac) came up to meet little P and we got some amazing pictures from that day! So glad they came up!


Tomorrow...Drew ventures back to work. It has been so nice having him here for the last three weeks. We sure will miss daddy here at home during the day and will be so excited when he gets home! So P and I together it is!!!
