Well I would rather be writing better tidings than this, but this post finds us a little unwell in the Bayer household. Admist all this rainy weather, Ari hasn't been eating much lately (and her diapers smell sweet???!!?? not diabetes..and not MSUD) and I took her to the Dr Monday, it turns out she has a UTI!! Not fun... We took her back today and the urine looks much better but they are still going to keep her on antibiotics for 8 more days and then maintenance antibiotics until we get test results..
What tests you may ask? Well more NOT fun stuff, we have to get a renal ultrasound done on her (not so bad, just a ultrsound of the kidneys), and then a VCUG(google it)- thats the not fun one. I recently had one done to find out my kindey issues and lets just say its pretty uncomfortable. We have to schedule it for 3 weeks from today after this infection is hopefully gone. Ari woke us up at 4am this morning, and the Dr said she may start doing that, just catching up on her growth and eating. I hope so! I like sleep, but I rest better knowing my little one is well fed, shes still not eating like she was, and HATES the medicene- every time we give it to her she spits it out!! They said it tastes like bubblegum.. well that must be some nasty bubblegum then!! You should see her face!! We got some cute pics of her in her bath tonight- she loves to lick everything ... you will see!! LOL.. washcloths must taste good?? silly baby :)
Ive had a cold as well, thankfully it seems to be running its course quickly PRAISE GOD!! We can only have 1 person sick at a time in the household. I was feeling pretty miserable Tuesday though and really missed having family close, it reminded me of how GREAT I had it over Christmas when I got sick and my wonderful Mother-in-law took great care of me and Ari.. ahhh.. family....
They're still working on the house, hopefully.. THANK YOU for your prayers, I know I asked Sherrie (mom in law) to pray for Ari and I know God is answering them! Please keep her in your prayers as we try to figure out everything and get her back on track.
Brett is doing good, he got the promotion as a Qualified Machiene Operator and is teaching his first class this week, hes teaching a pre-class for his boss tomorrow just to show him what hes going to be doing. :) We are so proud of him!
As for me Im looking into joining some play groups, I really want to get Ari around other kids and babies, its so good for her social development, our church has MOPS (kinda expensive) but theres some free groups online...
Please pray for Haiti and our friends that are over there helping (especially Eric Johnson Navy helicopter pilot and his wife and kids while he is gone)
Anyways- hope this finds you all well!!
Love you!!
Sleeping Brett and Ari and Awake Michelle
