Spit up girl...

Poor little Evelyn,

She has been spitting up all along, but became much worse Sunday night. (She projectile vomited all over her daddy. Must say-he took it quite well.) Dave and I both noticed a change in her cry Monday night, as though she was in pain??? On Tuesday it seemed as though she didn't keep anything down. I called the doctor on Weds. She was concerned it may be pyloric stenosis (when the pyloric sphincter is narrowed so food can't pass to the stomach), so she sent Evelyn to have an ultrasound of her abdomen. Thankfully it was normal. So, our little darling just has very bad reflux. She was started on a med called Axid twice daily. Hopefully it helps because she seems so unhappy and starving all the time, not to mention very gassy. We tried to give her some formula with breast milk per the Dr's recommendation and will continue to travel down that road with 2 other types of formula because it's thicker and will satisfy her longer, pending she keeps it down.

We'll keep you posted...

Anyone have $ .50

I'd pay a heck of a lot more...

Hi all,

Thought you might like to see some photos of little Evelyn. She is doing well, still adjusting and trying to figure out life. Her lip is completely healed and her tongue looks better every day.

We are all fighting colds around here. No fun at all.

Enjoy the week!

Tommy's address

Hi!

Can you e-mail to us Tommy's address. We'd appreciate it.

We saw Scott yesterday at school. He's doing well with student teaching.

Have a great week.

Congrats Missy & Dave

Congratulations to Missy, Dave & Evelyn from the Atlanta and Athens Georgia Beyers. Evelyn looks beautiful in the pictures and I am sure even more beautiful in person. We can't wait to see her. Keep adding more pics so we can follow along with her development.

Love to all,

Congratulations Missy and Dave!

What a little sweetie. We will be anxious to introduce ourselves to her. We will be in touch to set up a visit with you. Congratulations and we are glad to know that all went well.

Love,

Uncle Rick and Aunt Ellen

Happy Grandparent's Day

Hi Jim and Kaye,

Congratulations on celebrating your very 1st of many Grandparent's Day! We hope you were able to spend some time with Evelyn and the opportunity to spoil her.

Love,
Rick and Ellen

Leaving the hosptial...

Here are 2 pics from Friday morning just before leaving the hospital. It's so nice to be home. :) We are adjusting well and trying to get Evelyn to be awake during the day since she likes keeping us up all night long. I must admit, she did much better last night; perhaps our strategy is working.

We've had such a busy weekend filled with lots of visits from friends and family, with more visitors stopping by tomorrow. Dave will have to go back to work on Weds. He's planning on taking a week off in about a month. Mom is also taking some days off here and there to help out. My P's dropped off 2 nights of dinners earlier which we enjoyed one of the dishes tonight. Thanks M & D.

Tomorrow we take her to the doctor. Hope all checks out well.

Stay tuned for more baby posts...

It's a Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Evelynn (not sure of the spelling) Avery Wood arrived September 3, 2008 at 4:03 pm. She is 19 1/4 inches and 7 pounds 6 ounces. Both sets of proud grandparents arrived at the hospital with Uncle Bobby to visit.
