James and I began this blog at the very beginning of our pregnancy with Wyatt to share and update our new adventures as we became pregnant and start the new season of parenthood. Sixteen weeks into pregnancy, I had to go into surgery to ensure our son would not come too early and shortly after, we found out Wyatt has Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH). This is our humble attempt at being transparent and hopefully sharing the joys and love of Christ through this roller coaster ride we're on. And now to share even more with the new miracle on the way.

A Quickie




To say we've had a lot on our plate would be an understatement.  Blogging has had to take a backseat!  In short here's what's been up:

We had to get our house ready to sell, staged.

We actually put the house on the market and it showed aggressively for 2 days and we got an offer for OVER our asking price!  Praise God!  Let me tell you how exhausting it is to keep a house show ready with a baby that is on a crazy schedule.  So thankful we only had to do it for a couple of days. 

We had to pack up our house.

We had to find a new, temporary place to live.  This might have been as stressful as selling our home.  We have a Doberman and NO ONE accepts them.  Thankfully we have THE BEST realtor!  She found us a place with reasonable rent, a room for all the boxes we didn't want to unpack and our beloved Ronix gets to live with us!  

We've been looking for a new home.  We made a few offers, lost and finally found one in a great neighborhood and are under contract.  

Now we have to get this place rented (so that we can get out of our lease- PRAYING!) get the stuff we did unpack, repacked and get into our new house- hopefully mid September!  

We were discharged from Occupational Therapy for now.  He does not qualify for Physical Therapy either.  He is on target developmentally!!!
 
In this time we did have Wyatt's FIRST BIRTHDAY and party!  


This cool kid is on the GO GO!  He's crawling at speeds that are difficult for me to keep up with and pulling up and cruising like a CHAMP!  

Things we are working on:

Eating and drinking more.  I speak with the GI doc and Dietitian next week about how to transition to a  blended diet.  If any of you tubies out there have any advice, I'll take it!  We are also looking at going to feeding school.  

We hopefully start VitalStem this week or next.

I'm aggressively am working at trying to figure out how to shorten and/or eliminate  his night feed.  This will better all of us and our amount of sleep!  

Walking.

Following Directions.

Alphabet Recognition.

Color recognition.  

and so much more! 

 I hope to get back to updating more on a regular basis.  This should happen once we move and get settled.  In the mean time, please feel free to find me on Instagram (@caseydavis) or on Facebook (Casey Risner Davis).  I regularly update and post pictures to both!  :-)  

Wyatt with Great Grandmother Dorthy in June.
