Update on my babies

So we got some updates this week...Delaney had her two month check up and

• she is 9 ponds 8 ounces
• she is 21 inches long (or short since it only puts her at the 5th percentile)
• she got her shots and cried but got over it very quickly
• one of her immunizations was a liquid that the nurse said was sometimes hard to get the babies to swallow but Delaney chugged it all down great!
• All said, she is a very healthy little girl and we are so thankful for her!

She is also doing very well with sleeping. Most nights she is in bed by 10:30. She usually sleeps until 3:00 when I feed her and then sleeps again until 7 or 8. Throughout the day she likes to eat every two to three hours. She tries to stay awake for 30-45 minutes and play with me a Frances before dozing again until the next feeding. She gets pretty gassy but is working on relaxing enough to let it all out:) Kind of funny that we want her to pass gas now but yet there will be a day when we are not so pleased with the same behavior.

I also received an update on my other baby today....Mitch had his six week post op follow up.

• They did x-rays and think his foot is healing well.
• He is able to start putting weight on his foot although he is not able to ditch the crutches just yet.
• He has to start excercising four days a week on the bike or eliptical machine.
• He also has a schedule of when to switch from two crutches to one.
• He will continue to wear his air cast boot and will have to use an orthodic as well.
• He will follow up with the Dr.'s again in six weeks.

An update on Frances

• She is still loving being a big sister.
• She is getting very good at holding Delaney.
• She loves to try and make her smile! (her favorite way is to meow, of course)
• She has not been a great listener lately so is working to earn "good listener tickets" each day. She can then redeem them for movies or toys that have been taken away. She also gets to do fun things with mom when she is being a good listener.
• She starts preschool on Sept. 2nd and is gearing up for that! She will go two days a week from 9-1.

That's all I have for now! Thanks for reading:)
