Life is slowly getting back to normal. The last few months have been total chaos but as Rayna is getting better the whole family is getting better as well. As most of you know Rayna has been an extremely difficult baby and it took a toll on the whole family. Hopefully that is all behind us now and I can get back to doing the things I once loved.
Rayna will be 3 months next week. She is now cooing and smiling at you, as well as sleeping through the night. On most nights she will sleep for 6-7 hours but she has slept for as much as 9! I can't tell you what a world of difference a little sleep makes. She still cries a lot and requires a lot of one on one attention but in time she is getting better. She is still on her reflux medication but her pedi hopes to have it cut out by 6 months. I am also on a dairy, nut, egg and coffee free diet. Which hasn't been easy but, I have seen such an improvement with eliminating all of this from my diet that if it's helping her, I'm willing to make the sacrifice. She loves to carry on a conversation with anyone! She loves to talk back if you talk to her. I love her, she is growing up way too quick.
Rayce is now 2.5 years old and growing like a weed. Bless his little heart he is probably the one who has had the hardest time through all of this. Rayna has been quite an adjustment for him but everyday he gets better. Ray and I are working on being more patient with him and learning to have a softer approach, as far as discipline and so far it seems to be working. We were trying a tougher kind of discipline with him but it seemed to be making him act out more and him tantrums were getting out of hand. Not that they still aren't (at times) but I have definitely seen an improvement over the last couple of weeks. He is also talking non-stop (who would've thought) and talking in sentences. He pretty much knows how to communicate what he wants now and that in it's self makes life so much easier. He loves cars (as always) playing on his new swing set outside, and playing ball. He's such a curious little guy, always getting into everything but nonetheless we have a great time with him.
Like I said last time, I'm going to try and update this thing more often (hopefully) so check back in. Miss everyone, that's all for now. ;)
