Well Caleb weighed in at 8lbs 14 oz!! His belly is getting quite round these days. I guess it comes from eating every 2 hrs for 30 min! Wow boys are so different! He has been a joy to Scott and I to have around. We enjoy the little time we get to just hold our Little Man! The girls are still struggling but we have set up a sticker chart. If they get 3 out of 5 stickers for a full week then they get to go to Grandmas house on Thursdays. Down deep inside I hope they dont have to stay home bc that is my time with Caleb however Im willing to teach them that their behavior is not allowed. So far so good and Ryan actually got all 5 of her stickers today plus an extra for being amazing! We will see if tomorrow is a good day too.
On Tues Bekah is heading up to Riley to see the specialist regarding her diarrhea. Her gluten free diet has helped immensly but she still gets diarrhea from other things but we cant figure it out. But since we started the gluten free diet Bek has gone from barely 20 pounds (which was very hard to stay at) to 24lbs!!! We are very excited that she is finally looking like a toddler and not a sick orphan. We want to find out if it is celiac disease, allergies, or a weak digestive system. Please pray for wisdom for our GI dr. It is so hard on Bekah not to be able to eat so much of what we eat however she is a trooper!
Ryan is still not talking as well as she should. I understand most everything but others do not. But my future sister in law's mother is a speech therapist and is going to come evaluate her for me. Im so glad she will help us out so we will know what we need to do for Ryan. My guess is she will need therapy but we will see. We hoped she would grow out of this but she didnt. I think Ryan would be so happy if she didnt have to repeat herself to other people so much.
Well we appreciate all of you who care for our family!! Have a great week!!!

Jenn, good to hear your updates! I am wondering if Sae and Ryan are similar in everything? Sae seems to be SOOO motivated by any reward - stickers, cake/cookies/sucker/donuts/etc...but if I only have a punishment (ie do this or else) she just rebels. is this something you find with Ryan?
Yesterday, I knew she had to wet, but she wouldn't go for like 15 min while on potty until i told her she could have a donut. she immediately wet in the potty.
Glad to hear about Bekah's advance - Sae finally weighs 24 lbs too and she doesn't have any dietary restrictions.
Love your updates!
