Happy 1/2 Birthday Ari!!

Ok so on a lighter note everyones favorite little girl is 6 months old today!!
Happy 1/2 Birthday Ari!! I made her a 1/2 cake, and sang happy 1/2 birthday to her over a yummy dinner of pureed squash (for her) ribs (for me) and salad (for Brett).

We actually didt get a chance to experience the cake, we got ome a little late from the doctors office. A couple weeks ago I noticed that Ari was fussier than usual, REALLY fussy and whining all the time, so after some consultation of vetern Mom's (thanks Mom and Sherrie) I decided to take her in, and it turns out she had a UTI!!! Another UTI (urinary tract infection). They sent off a culture, prescribed me some antibiotics and send us on our way... Well things only got worse in the Ari department until she was so bad today she wouldn't let me our of her sight... I was soooo frustrated!! I decided to make a pest of myself at the doctors office and found out- her UTI is resistant to the antibiotic they prescribed!! In fact its resistant to almost every kind of antibiotic, soooo in we went for Rochepin (sp?) shots. We will have to get them for the next 2 days :( poor baby!!

Thankfully the shots seem to be working (if not its off to the hospital- YIKES!) once we got home and she woke up from a nap she ate 2 containers of baby food!!! And then ate 3 oz of formula :) Which makes me happy, she really hadnt eaten anything all day!! Praise God this is figured out!

We have had a wonderful last few weeks, Bretts Mom Sherrie came to visit for a couple days and so did one of my best friends Cheryl. While they were here Ari had her dedication, and we got to spend the day exploring San Diego!! FUN!! We did the Old Town Trolley Tours and a cruise through the bay :). The next weekend Cheryl came back (she was at a conference in San Diego) and we went to the flower fields, it was GORGEOUS!

Well this post is getting longer than expected :) check out the links below for more pics

COMING SOON: This weekend we are going to do a fun secret shop at a family center-lazer tag, go karts, you name it! Scott comes back from deployment the 13th and Ari and I fly home May 22-April 6!! WOW!!
