Sweet LITTLE lady

Lyla will smile all day long.  She is one happy baby.  She has had her fair share of stomach issues though.  I realized that she has the same burping issues and upset tummy that Ethan and Sydney had so I had some allergy testing done.  So far, I have cut tomatoes, chocolate, soy, dairy, onions (mostly), and spicy foods out of my diet.  The allergy testing came up with gluten and I was completely disappointed.  I have since done my best to eliminate gluten and have seen an improvement, but don't know how much longer I can last without all these types of foods.  I thought I would breastfeed for a year, but that may be shortened for my sanity!


She is growing up so fast and is now 5 months old today.  She is so, so little though.  Still just barely over 11 lbs.  She's up at least once each night to eat and usually twice ever since she was 3 months old. It's a big stress for me trying to make my babies gain weight.  I think I might just have small babies--but there is that nagging doubt that makes me a crazy lady and keep trying everything to get her to gain weight.
