We have big girls, too

Zayde rules. Thanks for the nice afternoon and evening with just 2 newborns to care for!



Holla'

Hey. Just a quick "shout out" to GT, Uncle R & D and Gpa D for leaving comments (as well as KJGL who I know tried to do so). I'm SURE there are others! Thanks to you, too!

Matt took some pics today so that the girls could take them to their music classes to show everyone, so hopefully tonight or tomorrow he can post them. They're pretty cute.

Zayde took the girls to the local big amusement park this afternoon/evening so Matt and I feel like we have a very lightened load with just the two babies! We just got upstairs from playing with our wii! I NEVER thought I'd say this, but that wii is pretty darn cool!

A Whiter Shade of Pale

Hey. Yeah, so Hannah was really pale and listless and quiet and not crying and not nursing well all day yesterday. Finally, around dinner I took her temp and it was 97.6. I looked it up and the discharge instructions from the hospital said to call the dr if the baby's temp was lower than 98. So...I called and they promptly sent us to Children's ER. I guess they just don't mess around with that stuff with newborns. They took us right back as soon as we got there.

Well...wouldn't you know it, as soon as the nurse started messing with her and taking her vitals and all, she perked right up and screamed (she was pretty hungry, I'm sure, because she'd not eaten all day). Sheesh.

More later.

A teaser...

I am far too drained and exhausted to write more than this, but just wanted everyone to know that the staff at Children's Hospital is really great.

Bye now.

Matt

P.S. Everything's fine, but check in tomorrow for more details. Weird night.
