My Pretty Baptism Outfit...
Pre-Baptism In The Cry Room...(Big Brother In The Background)
Godmother Auntie Jamie, Godfather Jim Severino, Mommy and DaddyHello again everyone!
On November 23, 2008 we baptized Jenna at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church. Father Ruggieri performed the ceremony and unfortunately for him and the rest of us, Jenna's time in the cry room before the baptism was the only time she wasn't crying. It was a great day regardless. We all went to my parents house after for a great party.
Jenna has been a little under the weather. Not with a cold, but some digestive issues. She has been spitting up constantly and in large amounts after eating. She is not losing weight, but not putting it on as she should. You can tell she is in some pain during these episodes.
We took her back to Cleveland to see another "gist"- the Pediatric Gastroenterologist. There are links to some issues with digestion related to Turners babies. They want to do an upper GI to see if there can be something going on in there causing this. She is on Pepcid, and it has been doubled with little relief. It has been frustrating, especially for Janice who has had to deal with her all this time, to see Jenna like this. The procedure is scheduled for the 16th, but we are trying to get in sooner. Also going to try the chiropractor this week. It has helped others we know.
As you can see by the pictures, she is smiling and happy some of the time. When her tummy is bothering her...look out! This girl has strong lungs.
Janice went back to work Monday and Jenna has been going to Grandma and Papa's house while we are at work. Jenna gets an earful from Grandma all day, we're sure. They have been a huge help through all of this and Jenna is going to continue to go there until after Christmas break.
Yet another hurdle to jump over in her short 3 month life...but life goes on! We will check back when there is more to report.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and spent money...LOCALLY! (That's the Chamber of Commerce talking again!!!)
Just a note on this terrible economy; The National Retail Federation reported:
"Though the holiday season is far from over, retailers across the country are breathing a collective sigh of relief after shoppers headed to stores and websites in droves over the weekend. According to the National Retail Federation's 2008 Black Friday Weekend survey, conducted by BIGresearch, more than 172 million shoppers visited stores and websites over Black Friday weekend, up from 147 million shoppers last year.*
Shoppers spent an average of $372.57 this weekend*, up 7.2 percent over last year’s $347.55. Total spending reached an estimated $41.0 billion."
Not too shabby!!!
