Tuesday

Where did Monday go?  I totally missed it!  We were at Batson most of the day for a doctor's appt, then off to the pharmacy, you get the pic...

Battley has REFLUX...I feel like duh duhn duhn should come after that!  Poor girl can't seem to keep her milk down lately.  She started some Zantac yesterday which should take 2 weeks to see the full effects of.  I also experimented with some rice cereal in her tube and am happy to report that it works!! (LaDona and Lisa, it worked in the 5!!!)  Hopefully that will help her too.  For a few days we have decided to do continuous feedings with her...meaning she is being fed 24 hours a day so that it is in very small amounts.  When we see that she isn't spitting up anymore we will move back to a regular schedule.  (For a while this weekend we moved back to every 3 hours and that wasn't working...and we were tired!)

We had a great weekend.  Hayden played a soccer tournament out of town and we all tagged along.

Battley is just a happy little chica all the time.  Here she is doing her stretches last week:

and so happy to be snuggled in her jammies in the hotel:

Thank you for your prayers for Amy and sweet baby girl Ava Grace.  I found out that Amy's sister-in-law is my neighbor's niece!  I will post an update from Amy's facebook:

I just want to say thank you for everyone's prayers and support. Ava Grace is in the NICU and showing her self stabling colors. I love that he is a firey little peanut. She has to lay on her belly at all times and can not be held right now. It's bittersweet. The dr's will come in tomorrow to eval her spina bifida and the possibility of a closure surgery. The cardiologist will do a echo on her brain and a ultrasound of her brain will take place. Our journey is just starting so please please please keep my angel and family in your prayers as we put one foot in front of the next and with God's guidance, we will make the right decisions and she will continue to fight.
