waiting for the plane at the airport. i'm so tired! are we there yet?

i'm taking dillon to the doctor today as well. we've had some problems with the rice cereal that we started him on...he threw up once/day for three days in a row after eating it for 2 days, so we stopped, and are hopefully going to start solids this weekend and rice cereal, introducing a new food every week. please just pray for dillon's little tummy. he's having a lot of issues with it and we just want to do the right thing. i'll keep you posted for sure! come see us soon, friends!
