I am very happy to say that Brendan had an outstanding night of good sleep, and he had a perfect barf-free day on his new formula. What a difference!
Of course, it is too early to celebrate success, but it is a start. Now I can have a few nights where I feel horrible guilt about not pushing for something like this sooner. He has been on that old formula for over a year and has had moderate struggles the whole time, although it was much worse recently. I hate thinking that he has suffered needlessly.
But we move on and hope with all our might that he just gets better and better from here.
We didn’t get a chance to celebrate the half-birthday yesterday, so while we were out today, we picked up a treat. Trevor chose this.

Brendan might have chosen something different.

He did warm up to the idea and stacked donuts for a while.

You all ate the whole box? Yes.

Teasing Trevor, and our chocolate donut penalty
It was COLD outside this evening (OK, it was 68) but we still enjoyed some time on the patio. It was very windy and tried to rain a bit.
The truth about who really built the gate:

Brendan is peacefully asleep – here’s hoping for another solid night!
