7 weeks and another appt....

Deakon is already 7 weeks old. We had another appointment today for his reflux, to follow up on the medicine he started. He weighed 10 pounds 3 ounces!!! Woah, apparently, spitting up is NOT hindering his gaining weight one bit!! Thank goodness! The medicine they started him on is not working, so the doctor added Prevacid to his regimen along with the Zantac. We are also scheduled for a sono and reflux exam at Cooks Childrens Hospital next tuesday. We are getting lots of smiles these days...and he is sleeping pretty good. He gets up around 2 and then around 5 like clockwork every night. He hates sleeping on his back because of the reflux, so usually its on the belly or on mommys belly. We are wearing size 1 diapers now and newborn clothes!! Some of the 0-3 months is fitting him too. All in all he is growing like a weed.

Keagan we have found out is allergic to ants or mosquitos...not sure which one bit her. But she blisters up in tiny little bubbles all around the bite, and the skin knots up and hardens there. Its horrible. So, we had to get some special cream to clear up the bites when ever she gets one. Other than that, she is doing wonderful and loving as ever!!

Farren had a dental appointment, and they referred us to orthodontist to see if she needs braces for crowding. She doesn't have much room in her mouth, and well....we went to the Ortho, and she is getting braces!! We are so lucky to have my sister be in the same field. She recently won a FREE pair of braces at a seminar, and is letting Farren use it. How freaking awesome is that>??????? FREE braces!! We are going to be saving alot of money....Thank you sister!!!!!

Anyways....we have been bombarded with appointments lately, so I have been a slacker on updating. =)
