Yesterday was Layla's sweat test and it was negative! Yay! I wasnt really too worried about the test and I didnt think that it was going to be positive, but I was anxious to get the test done and out of the way and rule out Cystic Fibrosis. The highlight of my day was certainly when I got the call saying that it was negative. The little trooper did such a great job as the test was not so fun for her. We also had another GI appointment at Hasbro (We are going to Boston on Feb 24th still to see a GI specialist there) which I kept so she could help us with the formula situation as Blue Cross denied us for coverage. Fingers crossed she is going to be able to pull some strings and see what she can do on her end. She also gave us a prescription for Zantac to see if that helps with her waking up screaming so often at night. I am still very committed to ruling out Crohn's disease and I am hoping that the appointment with the Boston specialist will help us do this. If we rule that out, then I will be satisfied with the severe milk protein allergy. Her GI doctor also said that the allergy blood tests are not conclusive and that she most certainly has the milk protein allergy amongst other things. So that is where we stand with the health issues. Hannah gets her tubes in and adenoids out on Tuesday and then hopefully we can get her feeling better.

Other than that, everything is great. My parents are trekking it down to Florida in the RV and had made it as far as South Carolina yesterday, which I am grateful for. I was so worried about them driving and my Dad said that the weather has been horrible and it hasnt been a very fun drive. I am hoping that today it gets better for them as they should mostly be out of the bad weather. We plan to meet them out there on the 9th if all goes well with the kiddos.

On a sad note, my cousin Suzanne's husband Stephen has lost his brother and I ask that you keep him and his family in your prayers. Cam has suffered with cancer for a little over 2 years. He was diagnosed just after his wife found out that she was pregnant with their second child. he was given 6 months to live and he pulled through for 2 years. I can't imagine the heartache his family is going through, so please, send them some prayers.

Lastly, Happy Birthday to Judy! 29 right???

Here are some pictures from my gorgeous niece's baptism this past weekend. She is such a little doll and I am so honored to have been chosen to be her Godmother!
