7 Weeks Old

Out little boy is 7 weeks old today and acting more like a little man everyday. He is smiling and "talking" with us and loves it when we sing and play with him. Morning is still his best time of the day. Graham had to go to the doctor today because we noticed blood in his stool while changing a diaper yesterday. The doctor confirmed it was blood and said that Graham has a milk protein allergy. Which means that I have to cut out all dairy products from my diet. I am glad that Graham is going to be alright, but it is going to be hard to cut out dairy products! This allergy explains why Graham is irritable at times and has to strain with his bowel movements. On a good note, our fat boy has gained 2 pounds in 3 weeks! He now weighs 11 lbs 13 oz. Clearly this milk allergy is not causing too much of a problem!
