Do these Rosy Cheeks...


mean that Finley is FINALLY teething?  (Her cheeks look rosier in person than in this picture!)

Who knows!  I've thought she was teething for a couple of months now!

In other news, I can't tell you what a difference no rain, four nights of uninterrupted sleep, and curly hair that is actually "fixing" in this new sunny weather will do for one's outlook on life!  I feel like a new woman and am happy to report that we are finally getting to the bottom (hee, hee!) of Finley's diaper rash and stomach problems.  After several conversations with her nurse, we decided to cut all solid food except for rice cereal and see if things improved.  

Since then, she has been blissfully sleeping through the night, her diaper rash is 99% cleared up, and her dirty diaper situation is beginning to control itself.  The bad news is that this means Finley most likely has a food allergy and we will have to reintroduce solid foods incredibly slowly to figure out which one(s) is the culprit.  

Regardless, I'm super excited about our upcoming week.  Tomorrow we're going to Stillwater to pick up Beth and drive to Tulsa for an all day Wednesday wedding planning session.  It'll be really fun!  Also, I am looking forward to the long weekend with Devin.  We have no plans other than to just enjoy being together and if the weather is nice, we're hoping to take Finley swimming for the first time!  I can't wait!

Lyla's cheeks have been rosy for months, and I've been wondering the same thing. Wish I could help!
