My little farty baby

We went to a specialist yesterday for Caleb's poop/gas problems and it was not much help :( The specialist doesn't think there's anything wrong with him other than infantile dyschezia which is a condition that makes it hard to poop :( he says it goes away after 6 months of age??? I hope the little guy starts to do better soon, I hate to see him strain and have all this uncomfortable gas. I also gave up gluten and dairy for three weeks trying to see if that helped. I think it did but the specialist told me to eat normal and he does not think he had a sensitivity to any of those foods. We shall see... Here is some pictures is the kids.

Happy new year and other holiday fun!

Caleb just turned 4 months about two weeks ago and we have had a little harder time with him when it comes to sleep then we did with Juliet. He is a super happy baby but also gets this bad gas that keeps him up at night. We just took him to the 4 month appointment and he is only 13 pounds 12 oz which puts him in the 25 percent for weight and he is in the 45th percent for height at 25 inches. His head is 16 & 3/4 inches which is in the 50th percent. Caleb is very interested in playing and loves to watch his sister or the cat. He also smiles every time you talk to him but when he is hungry watch out! You better feed him right away :) He is still getting up about 5 times a night which is very tiring and we think he may have some food allergies or a sensitivity. We are taking to him to a GI specialist for the gas and spit up issues. Hopefully he will just get better as time goes on.
We spent new years at the Abernathy's house with the Thomas family and it was a lot of fun! The girls and boys played really well together.

Juliet went bowling with her friends for the first time and she had fun! We did duck pin bowling and she was interested in playing a "game"



Caleb was part of the Christmas eve church service! The pastor took him up and talked about baby Jesus. It was cute :) Juliet loved to hold the candle but were a little worried she would burn herself or something else so kept a good watch on her.


It was in the 60's the other week and Juliet was able to find ice still left over to play in!

I took Juliet to the nutcracker with some friends this year, she liked it but got bored towards the end!
