Luke's tummy

Luke has been saying his stomach hurts a lot lately.  And for a long time.  I KNOW at least a good month now, possibly two.  He is eating, sleeping, behaving and using the toilet normally.  He is also fever free.  At first we were concerned, but then when he was never sick, we began ignoring it.  But he persists. I don't really think he's using it in a manipulative way because we don't really cater to him or his tummy and require him to eat when we eat and what we eat etc. and it's not getting him extra cartoons or special privileges. So, begin the good mother that I am, a month or two later, I finally got him to the doctor.

Dr. Stephens couldn't find anything wrong with him either so I am to journal about his stomach complains for 3-4 days to attempt to get some sort of base line and then completely take him off dairy and see how that affects his tummy.  In a way I hope it's NOT dairy...because that's probably his favorite food group! But, in a way it is and that we get this tummy problem solved.  Kyle was allergic to dairy for a while as a child, which I didn't know at the time of the Dr. visit or I would've mentioned it.  Does it run in families?  Anyway.  Here's to hoping his little tummy gets to feeling better.

And here's a few pictures of Leta and Max since Luke was in so many recent birthday pictures.

 All the pictures to this point were taken this morning, so that's as recent as you can get!

Vicki got this shirt for Leta and it is perfect!!!! for her.  Describes her to a T!
