Jude has his big debut on Friday at Jon's annual back-to-school departmental lakeside bash. He was interested in all the new faces and was very cooperative with all those who wanted to hold him. It is such a pleasure to introduce Jude to those who have kept him so close in prayer and in thought. We get to show them our little sandy-haired, answered prayer. I'm so glad we have the blog and all of the comments to show him how many folks were cheering him on from the moment he was born. We are so thankful for all the support and the continued kindness from our friends and family.
Beginning this past Wednesday Jude has really improved in the reflux arena. I don't know if the Prevacid finally kicked in or the Carafate took hold, but he is a MUCH happier baby. We have also been employing the strategies of "Happiest Baby on the Block." We are swaddling, shh-ing, swinging and such and feeling more confident each day. I don't want to downplay the challenges of an infant because we certainly struggle with finding what works on a given day, but we went to bed at 9:45 last night and I'm feeling pretty dang good.

What a precious baby Jude is!! You are doing just great as parents. He really is a blessed child. Thank you for allowing us to peek at him and see how he is growing. It seems like yesterday that my Nathan was Jude's age--time sure flies--he's now 27 years old! Sending hugs from Western Kentucky--Vicki Wynn
