We sure have had a eventful winter so far. I think I've had the flu myself 3 times this winter. Caleb has had it once for sure, Isaac once or twice and Ross a couple times too. Every single germ these guys pick up at daycare comes home and we pass it around. We like sharing. The latest saga was taking Isaac to the hospital on Sunday morning due to severe constipation. He's really had a battle with this ever since going off formula and onto cows milk. It's been 3 months and no improvements. He literally screams in pain in the middle of the night! The poor guy is so backed up and we've tried more water, juice, veggies, fruit in his diet, pear juice, prune juice, graham crackers, and miralax. None of that has worked. The only thing giving him some relief is mixing dark karo syrup with his milk. Well Isaac had blood work done and an X ray. His belly is full and he is backed up. So now we have to stop giving him milk this week so we can determine if it is the milk. We're also giving him the karo syrup and milk of magnesia. We're taking this opportunity to wean him from his bottle. It's going to be a rough couple days but we'll manage I am sure.
To make things even better, I took Caleb to the clinic this morning. He's been doing more frequent projectile vomiting and not having much of an appetite. We had an Xray done on his belly to make sure there were no gas bubbles causing him to throw up. That turned out clear, but he does have an ear infection and that is more than likely the cause of it. So he's on meds for 10 days. Wow.
Anyway here are some pictures I've taken the last month or so. I've been trying to get more of Isaac lately since it's been a while because he's so active. Enjoy.
