The babe's got meds.

Elayna's doctor prescribed her liquid Ranitidine and Lactaid to help with the reflux and lactose-intolerance. We noticed a drastic difference in less than 24 hours! And we're not going through as many diapers anymore because... well, you know why. I feel bad for the girlie though. Whenever we give her the Ranitidine, she cries real tears. It's got a very bitter medicine-like taste to it (duh). We put a little sugar in the lactaid and she doesn't mind that one as much. Anyway, she's feeling better. I'm not sure if it's because the meds are doping her up or genuinely helping to relieve the pain. Speaking of diapers, we're getting her some cloth ones this month. Okay, now to what you're really on the blog for:


This was our baby before her meds.


And this is our baby after the meds.


We can actually set her down while she's still awake. She'll even go down for naps now. Before she didn't sleep more than 10 minutes, 20 if we were lucky.


I took tons of photos during this bath. She was staring at Daddy the ENTIRE time...


...Except right here.


Who does this picture remind you of?


This is how she reacts when she doesn't want to be bothered. I love the look on her face. It's the same snooty expression every time.


Oh! Have I mentioned that our daughter, who isn't even 2 months old, is in size THREE TO SIX MONTHS clothes?! She's Amazon! Ryan always joked about how he would never get football players out of his 5'3" wifey... Think again Ryan, think again.


Look at those dimples! In yet another outfit we might get a handful of wears out of. I've already got a box of clothes she could only wear a few times before she outgrew them.


This is where she goes so I can get a shower. The running water usually puts her right to sleep. And then she wakes up as soon as I turn it off.
