Murphy Memoirs: Spoiled at Kentucky Lake!

At the end of July, we all took off for a week of relaxing at a lake house on Kentucky Lake. We were meeting my family (mom, dad, Jessi, Tyler, Macy, Mya, Katy, Clint, and Grandma Harshman) and Matt's family (mom, dad, Mark) were coming with us for about 4 days. Aunt Becky, Uncle Brad, Aunt Dianna, and Uncle Dave were going to spend a day with us as well. How fun! The house was full of lots of squeals, cuddles, dirty diapers, cuddles, cuteness, ooohs and ahhhs, and ridiculous amounts of cuddles - did I mention that?

We had a great time - Nash had all of his aunts and uncles and grandparents in one place. What a lucky little guy. We did a whole lot of nothing - eating well, grilling out, relaxing by the pool, tubing/boating on the lake, and some cornhole. Nash's sleep habits definitely took a turn for the worst during the week though - we were up at least two hours every night with him, screaming in pain. Poor baby. My mom, in all of her baby wisdom, asked if we had considered reflux - and sure enough, after researching all of the symptoms of reflux...he had pretty much every one of them. I called his doctor back in Nashville and she agreed with our assessment and called in a prescription for baby Zantac. Sure enough, the first night he was on it - no screaming in pain. He's been on it ever since and our household is sleeping so much better for it!

Nannie and Opa and Mark had to leave us on Wednesday, and we were sad to see them go! We spent the rest of the week doing more of the same...it was a great time! It's always good to get back home and get back into our routine, but we loved being able to hang out with our families for such an extended period of time. We always miss them when we're away, and wish we were closer!

We barely remembered to take any pictures while we were there...
