Today... much better :-)

Today, we started fresh. Kind of. Smelling fresh, at least :-)

Mack continues to battle with the reflux so I put a call into the dr on call at PAL (pediatric associates of lawrenceville... BEST ped's ever!). I felt bad calling on a weekend, especially with it being a holiday weekend. But i really felt i needed to, and dr sheth was on call and she's awesome about being called on the weekend so that made me feel better. Side note: once, Rhyan got croup and i had to call at around 8:30pm and it was dr sheth on call. She was GREAT... went ahead and called in a steriod for rhyan even though she had not seen her in the office b/c she said croup is that serious and then gave me her cell # and asked me to text her an update if things got worse or better, either way. Super nice!

Ok, so she said for us to start giving Mack the zantac 3 times a day and that if that still didnt work we'd move to either prilosec or something else, neither of which i want to give him b/c both are a pill form that must be cut, dissolved in water and sucked up a syringe and then given to baby. Sounds like a lot of work that would be nice to avoid if possible :-)

Point being, we started zantac 3 times a day today. Hopefully that will do the trick. He didnt puke today which is pretty great progress :-)

And to celebrate being back IN diapers (haha... how many moms say that?!), I took Rhyan with me for her very first pedicure!

Truly, it was to give Jeff some time while Mack was asleep to get some work done on his masters degree math class. Thats our excuse for our little girls date, anyways!



We finished up our little date with a trip to CFA where i, once again, "splurged" on a grilled chicken sandwich, fruit cup and water. Rhyan got a chicken nuggets kids meal and i'm not ashamed to say that i may have eaten the last bite of her last nugget when she said she was "all done". And i may have about licked out the bottom of the cardboard box that held a few crumbs.

Man, i'm in need of something fried. And something chocolate. Fried chocolate? The fair IS coming, youknow... may have to explore some options there :-)
