June 27, 2007
Caelyn's 2nd Birthday
We Miss you baby girl.

When Carlee was about one month old we took her to visit Caelyn's grave. Two years ago I couldn't imagine life could be good again. As I look at my sweet Carlee Iam amazed by her, can't believe she is here and well. She is my special girl, my joy, my life. In no way does she replace our Caelyn and Bella, they will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will never take her for granted and will always thank God for her. I feel like the most blessed person in the world. The last few years of our lives have been so hard and so trying, but God has brought good to our trials.



He has brought wonderful friends into our lives who have been through similar situations. He has shown us true love through our babies. He has shown us how precious life is and how quickly life can be taken away and to live every day to the fullest, enjoy every moment.

I have recently learned of another slosangel, Caelyn and Bella's newest playmate in Heaven. Madelyn was born August 29 of this year. She lived only a few hours. To learn more about this sweet little girl visit http://heathermohr.wordpress.com/ .

Carlee is now asleep in my arms while I type wth one hand. She is my sweetheart.

Two Months Old

November? Could it really be November? Yes, it really truly is. Wow, my baby girl is two months old! She is growing so big. 13 pounds already! She is smiling and cooing. Her best times are in the morning after a good long sleep. She is sleeping much better at night.

We took her to see a GI specialist yesterday for her reflux. He basically said to keep doing what we were doing and if she doesn't get better in a month to call him. The next step would be surgery and if she can out grow it we do NOT want surgery! She is on the strongest medicine, Prevacid two times a day and it seems to be helping, although she still cries the majority of the day and is having "episodes" of screaming at least once a day. Those "episodes" have decreased in length and frequency, which is why I believe the prevacid might be working. I guess it is even hard for a practiced doctor to determine what is wrong with her. He said it could also be colic on top of the AR causing her to cry. He explained to us that colic does not always mean just 3 hours a day, it could mean all day.
Here are some cute pictures of Miss Carlee...
