Over the past week, Hudson and Madden have gotten so big! Monday and Thursday we took Madden to visit Dr.Emily, the chiropractor. We have seen a bit of improvement in the fussiness, but no improvement in his reflux. We are going to try an adjustment again tomorrow, and then we'll decide if we'll continue going. He still cries... a lot...but, the good news is that on Tuesday the 23rd, we saw Madden's first smile!! So, we know he can be happy...we just don't see that side of Mad Mike real often. He was also weighed at the chiro...and is at 10 pounds!! He's our chunky monkey!! Hudson is doing well too. He is awake for long periods of time and loves to just look around! Thank goodness he is content just chillin out....because he allows me to tend to Madden and Paisley!
SO....Craig's first full week back to work wasn't too bad. We missed daddy lots, and realllllly looked forward to him coming home everyday, but we managed without him. The hardest time for me is in the morning....Paisley's hungry and wet, and Oscar is hungry and has to go out...and I'm hungry and have to pee, and the boys are starving and need diaper changes....all at the same time!! Let me tell you, there is lots of crying while we get everyone settled, fed and changed in the mornings!!
Big sister has associated the babies crying with them having owies. So....every night at bed time, Paisley has owies. Typically it's her eye, lips or knee that "hurt", and she cries for a long time!! I wish the boys went to bed before her, but they don't...so she probably thinks Craig, the twins and I stay up without her and party or something. Poor Paisers!
Paisley's vocabulary has really gotten big. Although, you can't always understand everything she says...but she's always talking!! Paisley can even count to 10 now!! She knows all of her colors, shapes and some of her ABC's. In the last few weeks, she's been saying, "Play mama, play daddy, sit!" I feel bad that we don't have more time to spend playing one on one with anymore! Luckily, she won't remember this time in her life! :) Below, P and Craig are playing hide and seek. She found him!
Here are our little football players!! Craig says Madden will be a running back and Hudson will be the quarterback. Looks like Madden isn't happy about his position on the team already!
The past week we had lots of fun visiting with family. Grandma Brenda, the boys and I went up to aunt Mary's salon for the day, another day we played with Heather and baby Jake, and we also got to see all the grandma's this weekend!! On Friday night however, we took Paisley (and the rest of the fam) bowling for the first time!! She LOVED it!! She did take a digger on the slippery lane, but that didn't hold her back from laughing, running, laying on the floor, eating M&M's, drinking her very first glass of POP....getting a STRIKE, and beating MOM!!!! It was really fun! (and thanks to G&G Berg for holding the babies while we bowled!!)
Well, I better get going. Everyone is in bed, except me! The boys are sleeping their first stretch between 3 and 4 hours now (usually). So...I can get a little sleep before I am up every hour thereafter. With Craig back to work, it's hard for me to feed them at the same time and get them back to bed at the same time....so if one is still sleeping, I haven't been waking them. This means I am up a lot during the night. UGH. I plan on switching to formula when I go back to work...which means I will (hopefully) have help during the night.
