Uh,Oh!! Lucy has done it again!!! Trying to post this as a widget and it ended up as a post. I guess that is ok since I am past due for a post. Anyway, when you are sleep deprived there is no telling what you will do. I worked 7pm-7am last night and still have not been to sleep.....Should I say Sleepless in MS....it certainly is no fun. Whoops, now the widget is at the end of the post and the picture is at the top and I can't move them....so there you have it.....another mess....well, leave it to ME !!!!!
Tomorrow we take Luke and Prentiss for their 6 mo check up. Pray all is still going well. Don't they look grand with their mother??
Yesterday my DIL told be about a product called Nap Nanny. I don't know if you have ever heard of this. I had not. I began to search the internet and found this to be ideal for babies with reflux. In looking to find a local dealer, the closest I could find was in LA. I called the boutique and in the course of conversation with the worker she told me of a mother of twins that had been to a gastrointerologist of her babies reflux. She was told to grind the rice cereal with a coffee grinder before mixing with formula. Needless, to say I swiftly was on my way to purchase a grinder.
Having made the purchase, I went to see the boys. We ground up the rice cereal while Mom gave baths. The boys ate their green beans and took their bottles with ground rice cereal then promptly went to sleep. Mom and Dad didn't get that excited because going to sleep quickly was not unusual however, staying sleep was. Dad woke up as day light was breaking through the window, thinking how did I sleep through all the night feedings?? He always gets up and helps her feed. He thought "why didn't she wake me"?.....Well, Praise Be!!! It's a miracle!!! Little Mama said.....THEY SLEPT ALLLLL NIGHT!!!! No getting up.......Little Mama woke up frequently to check for their breathing.....since they had never sleep alllll night. I would also like to report the boys have been SO VERY HAPPY today,,,, no fussing, took their naps, "talked" to the ceiling fan....overall it was a wonderful day...Little Mama sure did seem happier tonight as I check on them.....By the way....I ordered two Nap Nannies...will let you know how that is. The boutique reports rave review and they sell out as soon as shipments come in. Thank God life is getting better!! HA!!!
SSHHHH!!! Whisper,whisper!! Breath only if you must.......
We are not happy campers....we are spitting up (more like vomit), stomachs are griping and rumbling.
Mom changed our formula AGAIN!! We are not liking it....YaYa bought some "Gripe Water"...they say it has ginger and fennel seed....but we just don't know about this.....we are trying our best to "work on Mom and Dads last nerve"......all that work we are tired..we are getting ready for the night!! HA!!!
I think they are succeeding!!!!
They really are scrumptious!!! It is interesting how they "feed" off each others fussing. I now understand and have always heard this is why God made babies for the younger generation....not the grands!!! I am so tired when I leave there I can hardly stand myself....my house is a wreck, but I am either working at my job or trying to help out with the babies......we will get through all this.......Oh,,,,and did I say.....Pappy has decided now is the time for bilateral partial knee replacements....so he will have that done tomorrow. His mother is coming next week to help us out.....yeah!!!! So, I might not be able to blog as much...we will see...it may be my sanity!!! HA!!!! Pray for us....
You know, I love to laugh and have fun as much as most or maybe more. However, I write today with a request for prayer from my bloggin friends. This is an update on the babies. As you know, my younger son and wife are expecting twin boys--due Jan.26, 2009. For the last 2 weeks they have been trying to get everyones attention and succeeding. "Little mama" has been admitted to the hospital twice for contractions, not Braxton Hicks, but "for-real" contractions. She has been discharged home on a terbutaline pump which administers continual medication with bolus doses depending on the monitor twice a day through a needle in her thigh. Today has been difficult, having 18 contractions in one hr. Yesterday was better with only 1-3 per hr. So, as you can see it is an emotional roller coaster. I continue to pray God's hands on them, to keep them "in the oven" for a time when He sees fit for them to be born. I must remember the Lord's timing is perfect. Pray for strength and courage, to continue to trust that God knows best and He will not leave us or forsake us during this time.
You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverence. Ps 32:7
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped:therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise Him. Ps 28:7
The Lord is their (Prentiss and Luke) strength, and He is the saving strength of his annointed. Ps 28:8
Thank you for your prayers.
