Okay, we went to the doctor yesterday and Brady Cameron now weighs....7lbs...! Can you believe it? I wondered if the scale was right at first. He totally skipped the 6's and went right on to the 7. We were so excited and thankful. After celebrating for a minute then he spit up all over his daddy and we realized that we needed to bring up the whole formula thing again. So the nurse said she would call me and let me know what the plan is for his formula. It wasn't long and my cell rang and she said that we needed to go back to the formula that we were previously using......ugh! So now we are back to formula #2 again. So far, the spit up has slowed down drastically. They think he may have a small intolerance for lactose. Well, when he spits up the entire bottle....it doesn't seem so small to us...ha! Nevertheless, changing back has helped, and we will watch for the other problems we were experiencing.
After getting Jaydon and Brady Cameron home yesterday....in the rain, I decided that I would put my plants out so we wouldn't have to water them later. Great Idea......Jaydon always wants to help with the plants, so we went out front to get the ferns off the stands and put them out to get some rain.....and of course that is not all that got rain. Jaydon has never really played in the rain...so he took this opportunity to do so. He thought it was so fun. Meanwhile, I was trying to get the camera, listen for Brady Cameron and make sure to put all of the flowers and plants out there too. It was quite funny I am sure if someone would have been here to watch me run around trying to get all of this done. The truly fun part didn't begin until I tried to get Jaydon to come back inside. He didn't want to have anything to do with that. Brady was crying because it was time for him to eat and Jaydon didn't care at all....ha ha. He thought I could just go get his brother and we could all go in the rain and play. The one thing I said that got him in was that MawMaw and PawPaw were coming over to see him. He quickly let me get him all cleaned up....inside.....yeah! I was able to feed Brady, bath Jaydon, bath Brady Cameron (because he spit up all over everything), change my clothes, cook Jaydon some supper all before my parents actually got here. Sometimes....it amazes how much you can do and not realize that it was much at all until you sit back and think about it.
We had a great time yesterday evening. Jaydon really played hard with PawPaw outside playing baseball. MawMaw took him out front to ride his bicycle and by the time they left....he was so irritable because he was worn out. Once we got Jaydon in the bed, then Brady Cameron decided we had not been paying enough attention to him, so he decided to cry like he has never cried before, so we freaked out a little (mainly because Brady is not a baby that cries much at all). After we got that worked out Jaydon started crying (very unusual). So, needless to say, all of you who have children know what we experienced last night.
But all in all, yesterday was jampacked with fun, trials, and more fun. We prayed for these two boys for so long that all of the crying and fit throwing is so worth it and ALMOST like music to our ears.
Once again, we realize how blessed we are to be able to experience the fun with our sons. We cherish it, even when it is the not so fun part of parenting.
