Hello, So Ben's doctors appt. yesterday went fine but really we are no closer to answers then before we went. Although I do know he is not getting/or is dehydrated like I was worried about so that is good news. We got a referral to see an allergist on Oct 2nd so really I won't know anything more until they see us then. I do know that we've (pedi and I) decided to cut back Ben's milk intake and switch him over to Lactaid (like milk but without the lactose) and so far things are looking better. Yesterday was the first day we cut back his milk and he only pooped twice! Huge improvements- and today he hasn't gone at all (normally we would have had 2 or 3 diapers by now.) So as I assumed and as our "experiment" is proving he has issues with milk.

Stats: 22lbs and 30"

Now onto a more fun topic- I took Ben to gymnastics today and he loved it! One of my friends took her son last week and they enjoyed it so I figured we'd check it out and boy am I glad we did! Ben had so much fun climbing on everything and "attempting" to run/jump on the trampolines. Every Friday from 10-11 they have "open play" where the kids (and parents) can run around and test out all the fun things. So we will be adding gymnastics to our Friday routine until Ben turns 18mths. Once hes 18mths he can go into a more structured class- it's parent participation and will have a teacher coaching us on what to do with them. I can't wait :) I will work on getting the pictures and video uploaded so you can all laugh.

Well I'm off to try and finish up midterms (can you believe we're half way done with the semester already!) Hope you are all well.
