This is Derek's outfit from when he was a baby. I can't wait to show Derek!
And Aunt Jenn ready to take G for a walk!
Wow these last few days have been a whirlwind! My big boy is developing in so many ways and I'm glad I'm not missing out on any of it. I'm going to be so blessed to be able to take him to work with me, even if it will make my job more difficult.
Catching up on a couple things....
Gavin's colic got worse-MUCH worse over the last few days. Doing this alone is insanely exhausting, but as a parent, you realize it takes a whole lot more than crying to reach a limit. I love being a mommy and helping him sleep even if it takes hours. He is sleeping much better at night, but leading up to that is a whole afternoon of crying fits. I called his pedi yesterday first thing b/c Gavin started to projectile vomit, out of his nose and everything and gripe water wasn't helping. The Dr. switched his formula to Similac Sensitive RS and so far it's helped a little but I have to still give him gripe water. It's ok though! It's a lifesaver!
Today I was extra lucky and my besties Jenn & Mindy came over to watch little guy while I rested from my long night of dealing with crying and my migraine! I don't know what I would do without the support I'm getting since Derek has been out of town.
Lucky for me he's coming in tonight (more like tomorrow morning) But YAY! Gavin misses his daddy so much!
Well, that's all I can think of to write about right now. Time to feed myself while he sleeps!

I have dealt with colic with my daughter, and i found something called colic calm that really helped. you can order it online! Good luck!
Oh, he is gorgeous! Hope the poor thing gets to feeling better and momma gets some rest!! :)
Hey sweet friend!!! LOVE the top pic, and Jenn looks so adorable with him!!! Sorry his colic has gotten worse, hopefully soon it will be gone!
Love ya lots!!
Girl, you're such an inspiration! Rylie was a good baby who loved her sleep & didnt have colic, but I still dont think I coulda done it alone in those early days. Glad to her Derik's making it back home for you! Side note-are you nursing or is he on bottle? Have you tried Dr Browns bottles? Rylie did have AR & bad gas & those bottles helped.
That pic of Gavin is so cute!
I'm so glad you had your friends there to help you get some rest. It's amazing how much better we function when we can get our rest!
Hope this new change in formula works better for him. I never have had a colicky baby but things were pretty hard when Audrey was tiny and had bad acid reflux. Hope things get better soon!
I am so sorry Gavin has colic hopefully that goes away soon.
I am glad you have friends around that are so sweet to watch him while you take a much deserved nap.
