Acid Reflux

Sam only nursed about a week... I was sad to stop, but happy knowing that he was getting enough food:) No more hospital visits on a count of dehydration! He's on soy formula due to the spitting up and pain that accompanies milk based. I'm guessing that he has acid reflux like Tate did when he was a baby. Same symptoms...
Update Jan 8th: I brought Samuel to the doctor's today. Sure enough he was diagnosed with Acid Reflux and was put on Zantac.

Angie Dog

I'm not the only girl in the family anymore... Tate got a DOG for Christmas. He named her Angel, but we call her Angie. She's about two years old and is a Rhodesian Ridge-back/Boxer Mix. She's a pretty good dog (mostly potty trained) but she needs some training (like learning to NOT dig in my garden). Angie is really sweet and her favorite thing to do is to follow me around the house all day long.

Cloth Diapers and Pinwheel Mobile

Check out those CHUNKY thighs! Proof that he's our baby... Samuel reminds me so much of Tate when he was that age. Today is my first day of using cloth diapers. I'm so excited about it! My sister in law-Andrea gave me some for my shower and I'm finally getting around to using them. We'll see how it goes!

Here's Samuel checking out his cool pinwheel mobile. I made it before he was born following this picture. I knew that he would LOVE it, and he does!

Gingerbread House Attack

Tate broke out the butter knife and began attacking his ginger bread house! Yum!

New Year's Hike 2011

It's kind of a tradition for us... Hiking on New Year's Day! We went to South Mountain. It was a short simple hike with a new baby and a new dog.

Sparkler Fun

Fireworks are now legal in Arizona!!! Yeah! The funny thing is... I've never even done sparklers myself... but I opted to take pictures of Tate doing them instead.
