Recently



Well it seems as if I have found yet another excuse why I haven't updated the blog recently. I thought it was the fact that I didn't have a camera, but it turns out...even with a camera its no fun to blog when it takes upwards of an hour to upload pictures! Who has that kind of time with a 7 week old baby? Not I.

This past weekend we had the pleasure of having the entire Chisum family up for a few days! It was so fun to have all of them. Jenn, Gary, Caleb, Jude, Lance and Val go to meet Sky for the first time. Caleb was so cute with her...he always wanted to give her kisses and help me burp her after feeding time. :)

We are so blessed to have such a great family with so much love to go around.

The past few weeks have been pretty rough. We found out when Sky was about 3 weeks old that she has acid reflux. She had been screaming nonstop day and night for a couple of days and she was starting to lose her voice almost completely. So we took her to the Dr. and walked out with a prescription for Prevacid. It has helped a ton! Now the only problem is that the little bug has really bad gas that wakes her up at night and during naps. She just screams until it passes and then generally goes right back to sleep.

Its incredible how horrible you feel when you are looking at your crying baby and can't do anything to help her! I'm so thankful she is doing better.

This week I am really trying to start getting her on a good solid schedule. It has been hard with her feeling bad and all of the goings on, but now that she is feeling better and things are settling down I am trying! :) She is currently taking a morning nap (kind of unheard of so far), which is why I can actually write a blog post at all. :)

Thank you all for your prayers over the past weeks! We really appreciate them.

Hopefully I will get somewhere that has faster internet so I can upload more than one or two pictures!
