what about sylvi?





when you have a very strong willed toddler around, it's pretty easy to lose track of a mellow little baby like sylvi! the blog is no exception, so i thought it was due time for a little Roo update. hard to believe she will be three months old soon! it's all going by entirely too fast.

as i've blogged about before, sylvi has a very sensitive stomach and has been on reflux meds for several months. good news is that the reflux meds work well, not so good news is that at this point sylvi's stomach is no less sensitive than it was on day one. we are hoping that the older she gets, the more she will be able to tolerate and the more i will be able to eat. a bread mishap (it was baked with whey in it) meant over two weeks of gas and sleeplessness and unhappiness around here. although in general, i would never characterize sylvi as 'unhappy' in the slightest. she is actually an incredibly happy and laid back baby. she smiles from the time she opens her eyes in the morning until she finally closes them at bedtime. she didn't get the nickname sweet sylvi for nothing!

you can't see it in these pictures, but i think she might just be a blue eyed baby. her eyes have gotten alot lighter since birth and are now a beautiful dark blue. her hair doesn't seem to be falling out either, which should be fun! as i am sure you can see from recent pictures, she is doing a good job of chunking up... complete with chubby cheeks and legs too.

Thanks, Mommy. Don't want Sweet Sylvi to "get lost in the shuffle." Hate you are still limited in what you can eat, but I guess it is better than having a fussy and miserable baby. There will be light at the end of the food tunnel one day. Love and miss you all.

Boy,if Sylvi could open her eyes any wider, I think they might fall out! She's so cute, she'll never got lost in the shuffle.
