Our little girl has been quite busy this week, actually, all three of us have.
Last Wednesday we took Gwen with us to my BPU five year service award dinner. She did great through the entire lunch!
Friday, Danielle, a childhood friend of Tamie's, brought her toddler, Addyson to meet Gwen.
Saturday, they shopped Main Street for the Holiday Open House.
Sunday, Tamie and I officially became members of First Christian Church, the same church where we were married, and have been attending for over the past two years. We are very happy to be a part of such a great church family!
Monday, Tamie and Gwen enjoyed a cold rainy day in their pajamas while I finished up my last evening shift.
Finally, today, Tuesday. Tuesday was filled with activities for Gwen. Unfortunately, not all of them were fun. Gwen has been spitting up often, almost after every feeding. We became so concerned we took her to the hospital, where the doctor scheduled an Upper GI(gastro intestinal) test. It was a simple test, and not harmful at all to Gwen. The doctor simply gave her a drink of barium water, and watched how Gwen digested her food through x-rays. They found that Gwen still had curdled milk in her esophagus and stomach, at 10am, from a feeding time of 7am. They also determined that Gwen has acid reflux with this test. However, through the entire testing session, our little girl was totally cooperative! Now we are waiting for the final test results to come back, and praying that the doctors can help Gwen. Almost immediately after the doctor Gwen got to go have some fun! Tamie's co-workers at Farmers Alliance had a diaper shower and chili lunch for us. Not only was the chili and dessert good, Gwen got her little red dress for Christmas. Tamie and I want to give a BIG thank you to anyone who helped make the lunch and diaper shower happen!
Above, is the mound of diapers we were given from Farmers Alliance! Take a guess at how many diapers Gwen got! The answer is at the bottom of this post.

Tamie often sends me pictures while I'm at work, this is just one of the many.
And finally, Dad got Gwen to smile while cuddling on the couch.
Well, what's your guess on how many diapers? The final count was exactly 1,245 diapers!
