Entering the world of blogging ....

The time has finally come for me to start a blog. Now that we have so many exciting stories, adventures and photos to share I thought this would be a good idea. Hopefully I can stay on top of it and keep it updated. :)
So let's talk about the current "hot topic" in our lives ... Bella's belly. As most of you know, she's been a little "pokey" (as the doctor called it today) with her weight gain. She was up to 7 lbs 4 oz today, but the doctor still wasn't thrilled with that. And to top it off, the new hypoallergenic formula she's been on for the last week doesn't seem to be doing the trick. Bella is still super fussy due to her belly hurting. :( And she still has some blood in her dirty diapers (sorry TMI!) so they're sending us to a specialist. We're going to see them tomorrow and hopefully that will help. I'll keep you posted. In the meantime ... here are pictures of us feeding B along with our many methods of trying to soothe our little lady. Isn't she a doll?


This is our latest way to hold Bella to help her belly from hurting and keeping her quiet!! It doesn't always work, but for the moments of silence when she really gets upset, it's wonderful. :)


Tyler read that using an exercise ball like this would help her also ... it actually works!
And here she is with her death grip on me while she's eating ...

Well that's all for now!
