Five Months and all is...pretty well.

Most kids don't go to the doctor for a 5 month checkup...but we did! Aubree is having a hard time with her reflux. The medicine is not working as effectively as it did at first. The doctor prescribed a new medication which Tom just stopped to pick up at Walgreens. Unfortunately, he isn't coming home with it. (Without having time to get approved by insurance, it costs $178!! Ouch!) We're saying some prayers it gets approved and is effective. We have a follow up appointment in 2 weeks. If there is no improvement, we're off to a GI Specialist next! Goodness knows that I have learned there are always worse circumstances, but I say prayers that we can get this under control. Nothing hurts your heart more than knowing your baby is hurting and you cannot do anything about it.
Even so, she perserveres and has lots of smiles to go around! She is getting SO big! I know every parent says that...but truly...she's wearing 9-12 month clothes!!! She's only FIVE months old!!! If there's one thing Tom and I do well...it's grow big kids! :)

Her big brother is beginning to adapt into his role. I managed to catch a series of pictures of his latest achievement! Making her bottles!! Unfortunately, it requires quite a bit of supervision. (darn! that could have been a huge bonus!)


TA-DAAAA!!!!!!!
