31 for 21 Day 23

Today Jake had his last football day of the season. The weather was great, cloudy but not cold and not raining (yet it is now :)). Addy had been fussy all morning, just overall not happy. Very unlike her!!! We went to the game and it was obvious she wanted no part of it, just would whine and even tear up so she and I came home. I was hoping she'd go down for a nap, it was definitely time. However, she just fought it for awhile then finally gave in. Her C-Diff appears to be getting better, she's only had two stools today compared to at least 10 a day for the past week! Her bottom is also looking better. We are caking on the Desitin and using a hair dryer to get her completely dry. We haven't used wipes in months but if we did we would have given those up too! So I thought she was on the mend. Then it hit me just now as I was giving her her 3 o'clock feeding. LACTOBASCILLIS!!! We started her probiotic on Thursday. I've been mixing her dose in her entire feeding so she isn't getting so much at one time. I thought she was doing ok with it since she wasn't puking, that's her first sign of an allergy/intolerance. So I poured out her 7pm feeding and made a new one with no probiotic. We'll see how she does tomorrow without it and see if she feels better. It is so frustrating trying to find something to help her digestive system when she's allergic to all of the things that are used to try to help!!!

On to Jake now! He had fun at his last game, they got to play on the big High School football field, that's pretty cool to the little guys. Doesn't he look so cute in his uniform?? A blackhawk helicopter was there for a tour and entertainment too. It's pretty cool having a member of the INS as your football coach!

Sorry Addy is STILL sick. That poor kid. Sounds like it was a good day for the helicopter. Way cool! Hope they won the game!!
