Acid Reflux Stinks!!!

I am beyond behind on posts and updates. I have at least 100 cute pics of the boys. But my time is so limited these days and not just because we have twins and a toddler. Poor Daniel...he is really having a rough time, so much so that I'm on the verge of admitting him to the hospital until someone can tell me what the heck is the matter with our little guy. It started a couple weeks ago, like it always does...a bit of fussiness at eating. It got worse. And worse. A week ago, after a morning where he wouldn't stop crying, we were sent to Pensacola's ER. We spent 6 1/2 hours there (and Daniel endured painful tests) for them to tell me nothing is wrong...except acid reflux. So we switched meds again. They have not helped and in fact, we think he is worse. We visited the pediatrician this week, who assured me, "It will get better." Eating hurts Daniel so badly that he is beginning to reject the bottle and even his pacifier. I'm terrified. We have an appointment Tuesday to do an upper GI exam, where he drinks a chalky substance and they do an X-ray. I hate this and am spent. I'm worn out and I just want him to catch a freaking break!! On a positive note, I weighed him this morning and it's truly a miracle, but he is 10lbs2oz, up 5 oz from Wed (crazy, right?). We think the rice cereal is helping him gain weight. Now if we could just get him to eat he would be doing great. We don't have big plans this weekend, so hopefully with Brian's help I can get some updates here!!

XOXO,

Pumpkin Patchin'

Nolan has been VERY excited about fall coming because he knew it meant going to the Pumpkin Patch, which is at our church. We've gone twice, once while our visitors were here and later that week with Nolan's preschool. Both times were fun, but hot, so we didn't last too long.

Baptism

Brian's parents and grandmother paid us a visit at the beginning of the month. While they were here we had the twins' baptised  (Oct 4th) during church. It was simple, but very moving for us. Both boys' did great and didn't seem bothered by the water at all!

During the ceremony. I'm holding Daniel:

Brian, Dennis, Kathy, Joseph, Daniel, Great Grandma M, and me:

This is the only time we had the twins' put on their "bonnets" (and the closest I'll come to having girls...until they are Nolan's age and dress as princesses)!
