It's been a LOOOONG summer!!

I can't believe it has been over 3 months since I have updated our blog...I apologize to my blog fanatic friends. I actually found a post I had started when Austyn was 2 months old and I just never finished it...oops! It will never happen again!

For once, our summer didn't fly by...mainly because we spent a lot of it home with a new baby. Austyn got so big, so fast...I couldn't believe it when I started packing up her newborn clothes and she started filling out her 3 month clothes. She is still pretty small, only in the 25th percentile for height and the 50th percentile for weight. She is a VERY smiley girl who LOVES to be naked and hearing herself talk. Her little life didn't exactly start out so smoothly though. We spent much of the first half of our summer trying to figure out why she was always screaming. Finally in July, we found out she had silent reflux...basically it's really bad heartburn, which is bad enough as an adult, but horrible for a tiny baby. She is now on Prilosec and sees a wonderful GI specialist at Mary Bridge. We are so happy she is feeling better and we can enjoy our beautiful baby girl!
