Allie is rolling over!

Allie is now five months old! Wow..and just in the last week, she has mastered the rolling over thing! I couldn't believe in just a few days she is rolling over like crazy. She loves playing on the floor. The one thing I find quite amusing is once she has rolled over from her back to her stomach she really isn't sure how to get back on her back. She will start to fuss, wanting to get back on her back. Then once she is on her back she will roll right back on her stomach! She makes me laugh!


Allie's new thing this week is spitting! She loves to hear herself make spitting noises. She decided also ,she no longer likes her soy milk. She spits it out or sticks out her tongue so she doesn't have to eat? I just don't get it. On Saturday, my poor little girl only drank 6 oz. of formula! She is suppose to be drinking 40 oz. at her age! Everyone tells me, she will eat when she is hungry, she won't starve herself. Well, I disagree! Allie would rather starve! If I hadn't forced those 6 oz down her, she would have not eaten at all!
I was at the last straw with it. I feel so bad for her, so I went online and started to investigate why a baby would not eat. I found a forum on eopinions about this very expensive similac alimentum protein hydrolysate formula with iron. $30.00 for 16 oz. I may need to pick up a second job just to pay for her food! Anyway, I read the comments that people had written about their babies having the same issues as Allie. So, I decided to give it a try. It's only been about 24 hours and already I have seen a difference. I am hoping this is the answer to our prayers!

Linds, holy cow...$30 a can? As expensive as that is, it's worth it if she will actually eat! There is nothing more stressful than poor eating habits by your kids! Hopefully you keep finding success! By the way, I sent you an E-vite for Bo's birthday party. I sent it to your e-mail. Hopefully you get it! Let me know if you don't!
