7 weeks

Ella has turned 7 weeks, it really is amazing how fast time goes by. In a week she will be 2 months old, it seems like yesterday that I had her. Ella did very well yesterday, but today has been a harder day. We (Ella,Marian and Grandma) decided to go to Gardner Village this afternoon to look at some jewelry from our friends Carolynn and her husband. They own there own company and design there own jewelery. While we were there we looked around at other shops and also saw a small farm of animals. Ella did very well while we went and looked around.
Later in the afternoon we decided that we would take the kids on the tracks and head for downtown. It was Ella and Braydens first time on tracks. Brayden looked confused like he didn't know what was going on. Ella was asleep most of the time. We ended up at gateway while Marian and Brayden went and played in the fountain. Ella was smiling at me and making great eye contact. She is such a sweetheart, we decided we would get back on tracks and head to the city creek. While we were on our way Ella started crying, screaming and we couldn't get her to calm down. With 45 minutes worth of crying we finally got to the car and she had calmed down. We started to think about it and we had forgotten to give her Zantac for her acid reflex. As soon as we got home we gave her medication to her and she calmed right down. It really scares me when she has symptoms because I have no clue what to look for with DWS, I told Matt at the time if we couldnt get her calmed down we may have to take her to the hospital. I am so glad that she finally was able to get calmed down.
Last night at about 8pm I received an email from Dr. Marion Walker hes one of the best neurosurgeons at Primary Children's. He said that he would accept Ella as one of his patients to call and make an appointment with him. So we are going to call on Monday and get her an appointment with him to have her seen.
