It has spread...

So our sickness has spread..I told you before we were just waiting to see who it was going to hit next...and of course Avery had to get it...she was up all night throwing up and diarrhea..the good thing is that it only lasts 24hrs..and then Brielle stayed home today to bc she said that her stomach hurt and has been laying around..they get so bored just laying around on the couch..Im just hoping that it stays away from the babies..

The babies are still colicky..if anyone has any tips or tidbits please feel free to comment and let me know:)) It is pretty stressful. Why do they both have to be colicky!!!! I have been using gripe water....gas drops...swaddling tight..there cradle rocks side to side..tried switching there formula..hmm...what havent i tried is the real question..its really bad in the evening..my morning is pretty much the only time i can get a little bit done..

Last night we had Avery puking like crazy and two crying babies...which= not a fun night!!!!


Avery went potty once on the potty.. i had just got changing her poop diaper and thought this is so bad that im going to try to put her on the toliet..she will be three next month:D...so i told her potty in sign (we have been working on this sign with her for awhile now) and then i put her on the toliet..she did not want to stay on there but after holdng her there she did go and then hopped of so fast when she was done..But she was so happy with herself...and of course i was exstatic. I know we are a LONG ways from actually being potty trained but at least she knows the sign for potty and knows what the potty is for..so it is a start right:)))

Other exciting news...we are finally getting in home thereapy again..oooohhhh it will be so nice with the babies..Last week was her last week taking her...it was sad to say good-bye to her therapists that she has had for the last two and half years but i know this is the best situation for us right now..i just hope we have better luck with in home thereapy this time then we did last time..last time it was a huge disaster..but they did leave her on the list for a few months just in case i decide that in home isnt working out then she can get right back into the hospital with having to go onn the waiting list again... So this week the new speech therapist came and Avery did really well adjusting to someone new...she was really impressed with how many signs that Avery knew.. and was using two signs together..like help please...just not help..

Have you read "The Happiest Baby on the Block"? It helped a ton when Spencer was a baby.

Might want to try the chiroprator for the girls. One of ours was very sad and crabby the first six weeks. We found out his back was out and was a happy baby after one adjustment. Worth a try!
