A few very busy days

The girls had a doctor's appointment on Monday. Amelia weighed in at 7 lbs 4 ozs, 19.5 inches long and 14.5 head circumference. Baylee was almost exactly the same except weight she is at 7 lbs 2 ozs. Mommy was way off on her estimate. Their health is good, Baylee had a blood draw to check glucose levels, electrolytes, and white blood count. She is still very jittery and they want to rule out an infection. It came back clear. She will go in tomorrow again, to have a different blood draw. The girls are being set up with Dani slings for their cribs. Both girls have acid reflux and this will help them during their sleep by elevating them. We were happy everything is ok.

Daddy fell sick this week. He thought it was the flu but mommy thinks it was food poisoning from a chicken sandwich he had. Mommy was really tired taking care of everyone, but has survived. Auntie Alexis came over the last two days after college. She even brought mommy some really yummy duck from the House of Wu in Burnsville, the only duck mommy will eat. Daddy was thankfully feeling better last night so he got to eat the duck as well. The girls are even more alert during the day now. They smile when you talk to them. They also like to grab each other if they lay close enough together. Sibling rivalry already! Today, I went to Grace Park to learn about my job and to approve the girls birth announcement. I have to give props to Joyce again, the announcements and pictures are absolutely adorable. She really is creative and does a fantastic job. No wonder she is so busy and booked for the next few months. People are literally begging to get in. It's wonderful to see her business take off as it has. The girls and I spent the day with Parker, he didn't have school today. We went to Wal-Mart. Parker was the proud cousin pushing the girls in their stroller. Several older women commented to him that he was a good boy for helping out. I couldn't believe how busy Wal-Mart was in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. I finally remembered to splurge a little to buy our youngest dog, Daisy, a chew bone. We hope she will chew that instead of nuks, baby toys, baby clothes, baby blankets, and anything else she can get her paws on. The pics are snapshots of our days at home.
