Our Weekend

Ahh how great the weekends are. Time with my little family is always so sacred! I'm sure it's that way for everyone.

On Thursday Elliot came home with the most horrible diaper rash and Jack and I were so upset! He had been pooping so much (sorry for the TMI, when you become a parent all inhibitions go out the window right?) that he was left in a dirty diaper for a long time. There's no way I was going to send him to daycare like that on Friday and I decided to stay home with him. I put ointment on him all day but poor thing he cried and kicked and screamed when I tried to change his diaper. Later on that day his skin was looking better!

We thought it had been a stomach bug but we realized that he is lactose intolerant! Just like that. In a matter of a couple of weeks. We tried lactose free milk and that was even worse. Jack got him soy milk and he refused to drink it. He woke up this morning at four in the morning asking for it, but I had to give him two choices, soy milk or water. He kept asking me turn on the light, he wanted to see what the milk looked like ha! After about ten minutes of fighting it (and probably saying to hell with it) he finally drank it and went back to sleep. Success! This morning he wanted milk again and soy milk it was! He used to drink regular milk so much that I never thought this would happen. Thank God for alternatives.

This weekend was so fun and relaxing. We attended a birthday pool party at our neighbors house and I mean how awesome is it to not have to drive anywhere and be able to walk home when you need to. Talking and eating with some great people is always fun and watching Elliot enjoy it all is the best part of it all. He loves our neighbors so much and they are family to us.



Poor baby couldn't get in the pool because of his little butt but he enjoyed watching all the kids swim. It was way too crowded anyway!



Our neighbor's dad was there and he's in a wheelchair. He called Elliot over to play with it and it was the sweetest thing to see! 


We ended the weekend with bubbles! And food and movies. :)


Hope everyone had a great weekend!

  1. That's crazy how symptoms show up randomly like that. Brylee loves milk too (like she would skip meals just to drink milk all day-loves it!). I'm glad the soy milk works though! That pool is amazing! The bubble picture is the best! He's soo cute!
