Our first...
Wondering were we have been? Here is the update. Jona and I have had many of our first as new parents...and I am sure there is more to come! We had an exciting election day in the McEver home. Let me begin by making everyone aware, you will see a pattern going forward but it has been taking place for the past 4 years. Late election night, while watching the polls I discovered Hart had diarrhea and where was Daddy...the fire dept. The next morning we found out he had caught the stomach bug! Hart first virus, he did well not very fussy. And I think we handled it very well. Then the following friday (Daddy at fire dept) Hart started spitting up like crazy. He had about 3 outfit changes in one day, and Amanda needing at least one. We were told it could be possible reflux to watch him. So we spent the weekend spitting up and wearing beautiful bibs. By monday night (Daddy at the fire dept) Hart was not feeling well. He cried in pain from 9:15pm to 11:30 pm and I cried with him. Needless to say the next day reflux medicine was called in for him. And it does seem to be helping! And finally, yesterday (Daddy was actually home!!) thanks to my Aunt Sandra who brought it to my attention Hart is constipated. That explains why he is mad at the world! So we are doing the dark karo syrup to cure that. If it wasn't for family and friends we would be clueless. But I think we are handling it well for 1st time parents. We will see what happens on Daddy's next shift. By the way... you know you are a Mom when you blog about your kid's poop.

Poor Hart, I hope he feels better!
And, if the syrup doesn't work, there's always the lovely suppositories... Seriously, congrats on making it thru his first illnesses. We just found out my 2 year old has reflux. It DOES make them feel bad. Glad Hart's on the mend!
