Good bye Grandma... and bad skin...

One of Ben's grandmas passed away last week so we have been dealing with the loss of a loved one. It brought back all the feelings I had 3 years ago, when I lost 3 grandparents in under 2 months.
 

The loss of a loved one is never easy, but the loss of someone as special as this is very difficult. My children were lucky enough to have met her and had her in their lives. She was so excited when we told her we were expecting Katelyn. She was just so happy to "live to be a great- grandparent." Few people on Earth are as accepting and kind as Grandma was. She touch many lives in her 90 years on this planet and is looking out for each and everyone of us from Heaven.. RIP Grandma.. 

On to news that is less sad... Noah's skin continues to be awful. We have switched to soy formula and now have stopped nursing completely. Now, we are using Nutramegan formula.. Let me tell you it cost 3 times as much and the container is smaller... but it seems to have helped so far and it has only been about 2 days.. too bad his legs and arms got worse today.. I think from all the "pass the baby"-- poor little man has very sensitive skin.. 

We see the dermatologist on Friday so hopefully he can shed some light on the skin issues.. for now, we are using the new formula and hoping to see a marked improvement.
