Mary Alice's Adventures

This week Mary Alice and I have tried to get out of the house as much as possible. I am sorry I didn't take any pictures but here is a recap of her adventures!!

We went on Wednesday to visit Mary Alice's new friend Hannah Vitters! Mary Alice was so good! She looked around for alittle while wondering where she was and then fell straight to sleep on the couch. It was so nice to talk to Katie! It is nice to talk to someone who is going through the same things you are going through! We hope to go visit Hannah and her wonderful mommy Katie again next week!

Today Mary Alice had a very busy day! This morning we went to a local park and walked a mile! It was so nice outside and it was great to get out of the house! Of course Mary Alice slept the WHOLE time until we got home and she SCREAMED for almost an hour and half. She has been spitting up all week. It is not normal spit up.. We have had to go through about 3 bibs a day, so I decided to call the doctor. While we were there she spit up all over the table, the floor, her blanket, and me! We have now switched formula for the THIRD time and I am not sure how long this will last. It is very heavy and hard for her to digest, so we will see!

Tonight she took her last adventure of the week (so far). We went to see our friend Wes play soccer. Wes is a senior in the youth group at our church and has become very good friends with Patrick and I. Before Mary Alice was born he use to come over to our house every Wednesday and Thursday night to hang out and now he comes every so often! We have really enjoyed getting to know Wes this year. Tonight was his last soccer game at his high school so we decided to go and cheer him on! Mary Alice was wonderful! She slept the WHOLE time, even when it started raining and I had to run to the car with her!

Tomorrow Mary Alice is going to have other adventures and I will try to take pictures! Our minister is coming over to talk to us about her christening service and she is going to her first Relay for Life!

As a side note please say a prayer for me next Friday. It is my first day back at work. The good thing is that I get the following Monday off so I only have to work one day and then have a three day weekend! :)

We were excited to see you guys, even if Hannah didn't exactly express that! I"m sorry she was so loud. She ended up doing that the rest of the day and then all night too! Maybe next week will be better.

We go through the bibs too!! I have called my doctor but they just told me as long as she gaining wt and having dirty diapers its just spit up.. But man I cant keep her or me clean half the time. Some days shes good with minimal spit up and others its lots.. I have to watch what I eat. She doesnt digest dairy good. So no milk for me. I hope Mary Alice gets better.
