We have been pretty sick around here the past week. It all started last Saturday when Lila woke up and had thrown up in her bed and then it was all down hill from there. We ended up with the stomach bug it began with Lila, then Brad, Madelyn and Carter and guess who still hasn’t gotten it….me amazing! I have never changed so many poo diapers in my life and these were not your average poo diaper if you know what I mean. I have also never watched so many episodes of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse because nothing else would do. We don’t watch alot of tv so you can imagine my anxiety that I had possibly created three tv junkies but that’s not the case!! I couldn’t leave the room for even a second without a total meltdown…mommy had to be in sight at every moment so this made it hard to do anything except watch Mickey. However, I thoroughly enjoyed all of my extra cuddle time. Yesterday, they were finally starting to feel better and were off playing by themselves. After this week it really makes me appreciate just how good they really can be.
Here was Carter tonight still trying to walk. He was blowing bubbles and waving his hands everywhere while trying to walk. I think if he would just try to do one thing at a time he might have this walking thing down my down. Its so funny how different he is from Lila when she was trying to learn to walk. She was very careful not to fall and would stop and try to catch her balance and continued to move slow and steady. Carter on the other hand just goes full speed ahead and when he loses his balance he just flops to the floor as you will see!!
Here we are the week before we got sick….
Hello, Lila says…Here Mommy the phone is for you!
Who let this wild beast out of the cage…Madelyn was on fire this day.
Carter loves climbing in the box of toys. I think he believes if he sits in the box of toys then the girls can’t get to them!
He really enjoys the little kitchen opening and closing the doors to make mommy a scrumptious dinner.
He was also dreaming of going out and playing in all the snow we recently received but it was way too cold!!!
Lila’s first ponytail!
Two Saturday’s ago we went for a playdate at our friend Autumns house. Her neighbor friend even came over to play for a little while. Here we are getting ready to eat Elana’s yummy grilled cheese sandwiches!
Autumn giving Madelyn hugs
Taking over Autumn’s bed…they all ran back to her room and jumped right into her bed
What’s going on outside??
Playing peacefully for 2 seconds:)
Autumn tackling Carter
Then the next day we went to visit our other friend, Izzy
We loved her huge ball pit
Lately we have been communicating really well.
We are trying to learn sign language. So far Lila and Madelyn can say “milk” and “all done” and Lila can also say “more”. Of course, they only do this when they feel like it but its progress. Carter doesn’t seem interested at all in signing at all…just like his dad!
We are also trying to say words…mama(finally), dada, baba, bye, hi, done, num num, duck, dog ,cat, ball, book and the favorite is mmmmmmm whenever they eat something they really like. There maybe a few more but that is all I can recall that we say alot.
Lila is also following instructions. I will ask her to go into the other room and get something and she does it and brings it back. Carter and Madelyn do so as well but not to the extent that Lila does.
