To start off the pictures, here is me with both of my girls, Brittyn on the left, Lexyn on the right.

This is our four generations picture - my grandma Beggs, my mom known as Gamma, and me with both girls.

Now that everyone is gone, I am working extra hard at unspoiling Lexyn. She got real use to being held and someone running to her every whimper, so this week has been a little rough on her. Not to mention we finally put her on Nutramigen formula and got prescription gas drops, so that is probably playing a role in her fussiness. So far though she has not spit up at all on the new formula. They are also both in newborn diapers now. We started wearing them Saturday for the first time.

Monday I took Lexyn to the doctor because a week of her screaming non stop, pulling her knees as high as they could get, which she has been doing for weeks, projectile vomiting her bottles, and colicky symptoms worsening was all we could take. Since she has done so well on her new formula since Saturday night the doctor took her off her reflux medicine Reglan. He said Reglan has a tendency to make babies grouchy and irritable. He said if she starts spitting up again we will put her on Zantac. Maybe we are starting the down side of this colicky screaming unhappy baby stuff. By the way my baby that weighed 2 pounds 13 ounces at birth on June 2nd, now weighs 8 pounds 5 ounces. She is HUGE!
