Rough Week Over!

Miss Ruby is down for a nap after much effort today and I am online to do a quick post and some research. Thanks for all the great advice on the Dr., eating, TV, and misc. issues. I guess it was just all so much this week. I was writing an email to a friend early this morning when it hit me: This past week we had several outings including an hour and a half ride to the Dr. and a 3 hour visit once there. We went to the lab 2 days later to get 10 viles of blood taken from her tiny little arm. Daddy had to be in his office working more than the week before. We put her on a new formula because the one we had from Thailand ran out. We also tried some new foods that have not seemed to go down well. She started drooling the last 4 days, putting her fingers in her mouth, and chewing on stuff. A friend suggested she could be teething and getting her 2 year molars in. It doesn't look particular red or puffy but I am thinking she may be right. These habits just came on this week. So in looking back on all this - in addition to the eczema and dandruff that has been plaguing her but slowly getting better - it's no wonder the poor kid's had irregular sleeping patterns! Last night she actually got a solid 10 hours - and I got 9 - hurray! I went back to familiar foods for her today - chicken and veggies with rice. She ate a HUGE amount with a big smile on her face. Still wondering if it's the food or the formula that's bugging her or maybe both??? Hard to get her down to sleep without that formula. I guess we will figure it all out in the coming days. Looking forward to a relaxing and fun weekend with the little miss and the hubby. My Dad is coming tomorrow and we have a play date with Ava today. Should be nice!
