Thrush



So, Hayden got Thrush yesterday and we went into the Doctor's office to get him taken care of. Before we get to see the Doc they needed to weigh and measure him. In one of my previous posts I mentioned that WIC did all that on Monday. Well, in just two days he has gained weight and length. He is now currently 19lbs 1oz and 26 inches long, according to the Doc. I know there is a difference of scales and stuff like that, but I wasn't expecting that big of a difference between the two of them. I guess he's gaining weight in his sleep or something. Anyways, they painted his mouth with medicine that is PURPLE!! He was pretty funny looking, but still so cute.

Never A Dull Moment....




So, nothing exciting is happening over here, just the normal chaos of having two kids a year apart and one of them being Ellie. We have had a breakthrough with Ellie though that I think is very exciting. Ellie will SIT DOWN and WATCH the Baby Einstein movies for 10-15 minutes at a time!! It's a miracle that something will get her attention enough to where she'll sit still and watch. She is also going through a stage where she doesn't want to eat anything but cheese and bananas. Weird, but the doctor says that it's normal, so we aren't worried. She also now knows a little over 15 words in sign language and she can verbally say about a handful and she is only 15 months!! She also understands most of what we say to her or ask her to do. What a smarty pants!! She knows it too!! She also climbs on the furniture and can reach just about anything on our kitchen table and some things on our counters. She is our little curious George and is always keeping us on our toes.

Hayden seems to be more laid back and our little cuddle bug. He loves being held, which isn't very convenient when you have to chase Ellie around, but I love it. He had a WIC appointment today and he now weighs 18 lbs 3oz and is 25 inches long and he is THREE months!! He sure eats a lot more than the average three month old, but is using all of it so they aren't worried. He loves to smile and coo at you, which I love. He has been sleeping though the night now for about a month and will soon be in his crib in his room and out of ours!! Woohoo! He has started noticing his hands and sucks on them often. Hayden has been rolling over since this morning!

Here are some random pictures of them. Ellie with pigtails and wearing my fuzzy socks. (she loves playing dress up already!) And Hayden just sitting on the couch watching Ellie run around.

All Dressed Up For Church




Here are a couple pictures of the kids in their church clothes. They were both so cute that I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take pictures of them. Ellie had just taken the barrette out of her and put it into her mouth. She does that with everything I put in her hair even rubber bands. Hayden is wearing an outfit that Auntie got him. I love that matching socks!
