On the twinfant front, things are no less busy. Ella has learned how to crawl now and, although she isn't as good at it as Saxon, she is now finding her way into trouble as well.
It is a struggle to keep the floors clean, but Callie is fanatic about it and the rest of us are coming along. -- I'm a dedicated shoe wearer and its hard for me to break the habit!
(Saxon still isn't so sure about the camera)
The twinfants had their most recent doctor visit on Wednesday. It was another trip with Dad flying solo, but we made it okay. It was an interesting trip for me as I learned that the men's restroom at the pediatric clinic does not have a changing station. I mean, the men's room at Wal-Mart has a changing station, but not my doctor's office?
I ended up having to use the women's room. It was this whole production with the receptionist knocking and calling out "Hellooooo? Helloooo?" and then going in to make sure the coast was clear.
(It is official, Ella is growing up too fast)
But the twinfants got their clean dry diapers for weigh-in. Ella tipped the scales at 17 pounds 8 ounces while Saxon came in at 14 pounds 14 ounces. They also got their last round of the RSV vaccine, which is a shot. Ella cried some. Saxon cried...ALOT. With him its like a bomb going off. He sucks in a huge breath, holds it and then lets it all out.
I think he was still feeling some of the effects yesterday and last night, the shots leave him kind of cranky. He was beside himself last night and fell asleep to Amanda and me playing our guitars. But all is well now and this morning he was into mischief as usual.
Amanda bought the guitar herself with all the money she's been earning by babysitting. She's been a great help to Callie and I, and I think she's learned a valuable less about having children:
(It is exhausting!)
