Ch- Ch- Changes!

We are doing a lot of changing here in the Hallinan Household!  Let me list them for you....

Change #1
The BIGGEST change is that we are MOVING!  We bought a house in Washington Township and close on November 30th!  So we will be moving out of this house into the new house the first weekend in December.  Then hopefully selling this house quickly soon after.

We are moving because....

a) We need a bigger house...as small as Annelise is, we are overrun with baby stuff.  The swing, the pack-n-play, the bouncy seat, the bassinet, the crib, the changing table, it takes up so much room.  And she playing in the living room on the floor in the middle of where people need to walk. 

b) It's an awesome time to buy and we found a house that we love at a great price. 

c) We'll be closer to Gramma AND Mom Mom!  So lucky them, I can now drop little A off in a moments notice.  Hehe!


Change #2
Annelise is now in 3 month old clothes!  We had 2 doctor's appointments this week.  She weighed in a 9 lbs 6 oz at each!  Wow, what a big girl!  The doctors are all pleased with her weight gain.  So despite her reflux and spitting up, she's gaining well.

Change #3
We are trying a new formula to supplement with.  Annelise has a lot of gas and is fussy from it.  The nutritionist (and her parents!) think there's no reason for her to be so fussy.  It's usually only once a day, but you can tell she's in pain!  We just switched as of today to Similac Alimentum.  We're going to give it about 2 weeks.  If it doesn't resolve her issues, then we're going to try Enfamil Nutramigen.  All a little more expensive then the common formulas, but we may be able to get insurance to cover part of the cost.  If not, I don't care.  I'll pay whatever to make this little girl happy ALL the time!

As always, here are some cute pictures of little A!

This is Mom Mom and Annelise both asleep at Mom Mom's house.  Our heater broke during the recent snow storm!  Of course.  So we camped out at Mom Mom's house for the weekend.

Here's little A bundled up before we headed over to Mom Mom's. 
Little Hokie Girl!

Annelise's Halloween outfit.  She loved helping Mommy hand out candy to trick-or-treaters!

Then it got warm, and Mommy used the opportunity to dress Annelise in a cute dress for her appointment with her surgeon, Dr. Flake.
