Well, we have been really busy here at the Nielsen household. Both Mike and I have officially turned in our resignations. With Alyssa having acid reflux and having to take medication 3 times a day, we both agreed that we would feel more comfortable keeping her at home instead of in a day care. So, I am officially an at home mom for now - at least until she gets better. KeepMedia took it well...I did work there for 4 years so I did my time. Hehe...
Mike on the other hand has been going on interviews during the last week or so. He had numerous offers from good and well respected companies (Go Mike!) and just decided today to accept an offer with a company closer to our home. He will be working 6 miles away which is fantastic considering he's been commuting an hour each way to work and back daily. We are both very excited about it because it means less time wasted in good 'ole hwy 101 and more time at home with Alyssa and I. We can't wait to meet daddy for lunches during the week!
Alyssa is smiling and cooing and really wanting to talk now. She's doing better on the medication and on her new hypo-allergenic formula. My breast milk was hard on her stomach because almost anything I ate gave her an upset stomach. We also found out the hard way that she's allergic to the milk protein or soy in formulas. She has an extra sensitive stomach and it was so hard to see her tummy hurting and in so much pain. She would scream at the top of her lungs for hours and until she lost her voice. She is like a whole new baby now. Much happier for sure.
