We had our sono done and he does not have the stomach hardening at the opening of his stomach that they thought he did....thank goodness!! He did reflux 3 times during the exam. The sono tech said that our Dr. should have the report by the end of today, and will contact us with the results. They gave him a paci after he ate to help the food digest and help him swallow more often, and it seemed to help and really soothe him. So, we may have to have a paci for this baby. I've never used a paci before with any of my kids, so this will be a new experience!! We go back next week for his 2 month check up. The prevacid pills seem like they are helping a litle bit. The spitting up is not AS bad. Its not as projectile. Hopefully, it will do the trick after it gets in his system good. I can't believe how big he is getting, it just blows my mind that he has gained almost 4 pounds already! Deakon will be 2 months old next week! AHHHHHHH!!!!
Update on Farren: The school called this morning to let me know that she was sick. She is congested, glands are swollen, coughing, and running a fever. My last two weeks have been FILLED with doctors appointments, so we are adding one more today for her at 11:15. Then we have her 2nd ortho appointment at 3:00 today. Hopefully, we can get through Thursday and Friday without any appointments. =)
Update on Farren: She has an ear infection and a sinus infection. No school till Friday! She was a little upset she has to miss her volleyball game tomorrow, but needs to get better. We are starting meds this afternoon, so hopefully she will be well by the weekend.

When we started Peyton on reflux medication her doctor said that the medication would not stop the spitting up, it would make her more comfortable. So, you may not see the spitting up end until he starts solids. Have you tried giving me cereal? I had to put a little cereal in Peyton's bottle and that seemed to help a lot. I am glad he does not have the stomach hardening. Also, pacis are a relux baby's best friend. It really does help with keeping the milk from coming back up.
Oh, how soon we forget. Your eldest child had a paci for two to three years! Don't you remember the issues y'all had with taking one away from her? She would always have one in her mouth & one in her hand! And when you'd try taking one away from her she'd miraculously pull one out from somewhere. It was a BIG deal, can't believe you don't remember!
Your kids are so cute! I will add your blog to my list!
