Life!
The past couple of weeks have been very interesting with Taterbug! His tummy doesn't like my milk (which I've had a nice little chat with the Lord as to why...since He created the perfect feeding system...I still just don't understand why it didn't work with Tate) So, in the process of trying to figure all this out, we learned Tate is allergic to regular formula...which led me to think about my own milk being a problem for him. My prayer was to know exactly what to do, do it, and not look back. We started soy still mixed with my milk...that got rid of the head to toe rash...but not the tummy problems (I was only eating plain sandwiches and some meat...good diet...not very fun though!). We tried strictly soy formula for 48 hours...and were amazed to have a very, very happy and content little Tate! He is on a great 3-31/2 hour schedule...waking up once during the night and on to bigger and better things than a constant tummy ache! I'm FINALLY ok with all of this. This experience is another reminder to me that God's answer isn't always what I think it should be and that I must have increasing faith in Him...not in myself or my bright ideas! May He increase and I decrease in every area of my life! On a side note...all 3 boys are taking a Sunday afternoon snooze...I must join them! (Bradley had a lock OUT this weekend from 10pm-7am...he is still trying to recover...oh to be THAT old! JK B! I love you.) A lock OUT starts at the church and then they take the students (all 140+) bowling, to a gym, sports world and then back to the church for donuts! If you are on facebook...look at the conversation between Kyle and Travis on Bradley's page as to what his mood is like after 10pm! It's pretty funny! Have a wonderful, Kingdom focused week!

If it's not already too late and you still want to nurse, you can try cutting dairy out of *your* diet. I had to do that with both my girls!
I did that...no luck!
Don't stress about it...maybe you can donate your breast milk to a bank where someone (or some baby) can use it.
By the way...we will be in Austin starting next week. We can for sure get together when you come in town in June!
