It has been a long past few days. I went to work Friday morning and got off at 7:00pm then went by to see how the boys were doing. Little Mom had one hr sleep the night before so I told her to go to bed and I would stay up with the boys. Saturday morning at 4:30 I went home after she had had some sleep. Luke began to spit up....as you read on previous blog.....anyway, after seeing the pediatrician we were at it again. Increasing cereal in his formula, it did not seem to help and by last night he was projectile vomitting. This morning Little Mama and Dad were on their way to pediatrician's office. They were told Luke probably had pyloric stenosis and he was admitted to hosp to be work-up and if positive would have surgery in the morning and spending about 4 days in the hospital. Little Mama's mother leaves this afternoon to go back home to Michigan and of course Little Mama is upset about that as well. So, Uncle and Auntie are going to help me out with shifts to care for Prentiss and of course everyone is a little uncomfortable about giving him his meds that he takes "around the clock".....So, this is where we stand at this point.
IICor 12:9
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:for my strength is made perfect in weakness".
Jeremiah 30:17
For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord.
Please continue to pray for us.

This is what I needed on my first time out baby sitting while little Mom had a brief outing with her mother to "Wally World". I gave Prentiss his medications waiting 30 mins then fed Luke
for 30 mins by this time it was time to feed Prentiss....then feeding him and burping I had to go back to Luke to give him burp time cause he's "not in to that" so he takes longer......OH>>>MY>changing diapers. The next day I got off work and went by before doing home and learned little mom had only had one hr of sleep the night before. I told her I would stay the night so that she could be some sleep. She quickly agreed. HA! So about 11:15 she went to bed.....I went to work.....meds for Prentiss, changed Luke diaper, feed Luke, burp Luke.....hold him "up" to settle his stomach...change Prentiss, feed Prentiss, hold him "up" for awhile....change Luke again....try to settle both down for a few hrs.....NOT.....grunt....wiggle.....suck passey......wiggle....grunt.......stretch...groan.......Luke finally settled down.....Prentiss grunted and wiggled most of "morning".....little mom got up about 4:30a for next feeding round........I went home about 5:30.......skip forward to 11:30 Little Mama's mother calls and asked me to come over....911 had been called because Luke was choking and little Mama was having difficulty
getting airway open.....after paramedics left Luke was taken to pediatricians and was told he had reflux and was prescribed ZANTAC...and will have to be fed every 2 hrs and given this med twice a day.......Prentiss was quiet and slept all the while everyone was gone. Now it is 8pm.....I'm back at home telling Little Mama to call if she needs me. Little Mama's mother said these kids scared her ****less.....WHEW!!! Lord help us all.....GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME>

I decided to post this to honor my commitment to "Cook It Blog It". I found this recipe in our local paper. The family tried it Christmas and it was a "hit".
HOT ROAST BEEF PARTY SANDWICHES
Ingredients: one-half cup finely chopped walnuts
2 (9.24-ounce) package dinner rolls
two-thirds cup peach perserves
one-half cup mustard-mayonnaise blend (I used dijon honey mustard)
one-fourth pound thinly sliced deli roast beef chopped
one-half pound sliced Havarti cheese
salt and pepper (optional)
Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Heat walnuts in a small non-stick skillet over medium to low heat, stirring often for 5-6 mins or until lightly roasted and fragrant. Remove rolls from package (do not separate).
Cut rolls in half horizontally, creating one top and one bottom per package. Spread preserves on cut sides of top rolls, sprinkle with walnuts. Spread mustard-mayo blend on cut side of bottom of rolls. Top with roast beef and cheese. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with top half of rolls, preserves side down, and wrap in aluminum foil. Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minsutes or until cheese is melted, slice into individual sandwiches. Serve immediately.
They are so yummy, just enough...would be great to serve when finger foods are served.
Wishing all my bloggin friends a Happy New Year! May your year be filled with God's blessings!
