2 months

Ellie Update
Ellie is 2 months old now.  She is so precious.  We have put her on soy-formula and it has made a world of difference for her.  She no longer cries everytime she eats.  We have taken her off the acid reflux medicine, this seems to be the answer.
She is awake a lot more during the day and has started sleeping from about 10 pm to 7am with only one feeding in the night.  It is a lot better then waking up every three hours.  Although, it is still not a whole nights sleep without interuption....but we will get there.
She is smiling up a storm these days and even has a "giggle" that is her sucking in air and sounding so excited.  She loves watching her siblings.  Kaden has been a big helper and will watch her so I can shower when they get home from school!  She is great at feeding Ellie her bottle, but she has yet to try changing a diaper :)

CELEBRATION TIME!

Gregory is Cancer-Free!

We had a suprise party for Greg when he got the news from his doctor that he is officially cancer-free.  The girls, Taylor, Nic and cousin Kari decorated the house while we were out.  It looked amazing!  There was crate paper and balloons everywhere!  Greg really was suprised.  We had an ice cream cake and then played games.
