Teeth

Well we have a bunch of teeth now. Both girls have 4 teeth each and Lanier had her 4 first. Harlan was first with teeth but Lanier passed her with tooth number 3 and 4. Both girls find the teeth rather interesting and play with them with their tongues all the time.

I'll pull some pics and get them up this weekend.

Being a slacker

Sorry I haven't posted lately, I've been a bit busy with work. But I do have some pics and some news stories to put up. Since I'm not working on Friday, maybe I can get around to it.

ChickenPox the on going saga

Well on Monday Lanier went to the doctor as noted earlier, well today 11/2, Harlan went in, we believe her chickenpox had become infected, which turns out to be the case. As you can tell from the pictures posted earlier, Harlan had it far worse than Lanier did. So now Harlan is on antibiotics.

Also for Harlan's visit, the doctor had some of his fellow doctors come done, because they had never seen a live case of the chicken pox. They said since the vaccine has been out for 12 years now, that no one gets them anymore. Lucky us.

weights

Well while the gorls were at the doctor they both got weighed.

Harlan - 18lbs .6ozs
Lanier 20lbs 12ozs

we have chickenpox

Well we didn't make it until we could get the vaccine, missed it by 2 months. Both our girls have come down with chickenpox. We are about 4 days into it, so we have about a week left. Lanier got them first, but by the time we realized it was chickenpox, Harlan had them. It started on Friday (27th) for Laner, well a little before that with a small rash on her leg, but by Saturday she was nicely covered and Harlan had 2 or 3 bumps. Now both are getting more and more. Lanier more than Harlan.

They are both handling it well, but you can tell they are not feeling well. We took them to the doctor on Monday to verify the pox, and knowing there was nothing they could do, but we wanted to make sure that nothing new had come around.

Hopefully they will start getting better by this weekend.

I will be posting some pics in the next day or so of our dotted girls.

Babies on Stairs

we have words

Well both girls now seem to be saying mama and dada. Now we just have to associate those with mama and dada. But this is a good first step so to speak.

Lanier's OT/PT

Well Lanier had her 9 month OT/PT visit. Everything seems to be going good and she is doing everything that she should be doing. The only slight concern is when she crawls she won't use her right leg. But they seem to think that it is a muscle development problem rather than a mental issue. So they gave us an exercise to work on making her right trunk muscles stronger and that should help out. So other than that and they weren't even too concerned with that, everything looks good.

We go back in December unless she has issues standing flat footed before then.
