I'm one month old!

Oh, how we continue to be richly blessed by baby Grant! He has started smiling at us this past week; BIG smiles! When he does that, it just lights us up all inside. :o) He is such a happy baby and loves to cuddle. Little Grant has had his second week of Kindermusik classes with mommy. The other parents and children simply adore him and I can already tell he enjoys this music and movement time. He still struggles with spitting up after each feeding, but it seems to be getting a little better. We have tried every formula on the shelf, and the soy-based formula seems to work a little better than the rest. We took him to the pediatrician this past Friday for a follow-up from his 2-week check-up. He had gained a whole pound!! He now weighs 8 lbs. 5 oz. I asked the doctor if he could check Grant for pyloric stenosis to see if that might be the cause of his spitting up. He ordered an ultrasound for later that day. The doctor doing the test indicated that at the time, he did not see any blockage in his stomach, but that they would look at it closer later on and the pediatrician would get back with me. It most likely will be that little Grant just has a good case of acid reflux and he'll have to outgrow it. He is a beautiful baby and we are enjoying every minute, even at 2:00 am!!
