We just got a set of patio furniture. It is a gift given by a very generous friend, Dr. Chase. Nathan and I have enjoyed the glider very much. He loves to be in there. We can’t even resist it even with the very cold weather two weeks ago.  We should have our grilling sessions in no time if Andy is up to grilling. Em… maybe he wants to buy a new grill to go with the new furniture? hahha.. not sure yet… because we have to be watchful of our spending.

Nathan is now 7th month old. He has been having a difficult time with bowel movement. I don’t think he is constipated but really the uncoordination of stooling. Whenever he has bowel movement, he would fusses a lot and wiggles like a little worm and keeps straining for the whole day. We had a chance to discuss this issue with the doctor yesterday. The doctor suggested to increase his frequency of bowel movement to get him use to the sensation of bowel movement. So, she suggests to increase his juice intake to 2 oz. If this doesn’t work, then add in 1-2 tsp of karo syrup to his milk. If he keeps withholding his stool, we have to use the milk of magnesia on him. We also added more fruit to his diet too. I’ve really been worry too much because I tend to think the very negative side of it. Today I got really emotional and depressed about it too. But God has been faithful and my source of strength. I prayed and prayed for Nathan because he was so uncomfortable the whole morning. Finally, he had his explosive bowel movement after lunch. And now sleeping like a baby in the bed. I really would give praise and glory to God who is ever present for me and of course my dear husband who is so patient and supportive.
