Can you tell? I'm struggling to find the time to post right now. And to be fair it isn't like I'm not busy. School is in full swing and the girls and housework keep me hopping. We returned from vacation the other day and I feel so scattered with everything! Hopefully things will fall back in order soon.
Kiley and Kara are growing up so fast! They clap their little hands and are trying so hard to stand on their own. When I sing "If you are happy and you know it" They get so excited and clap and clap. They are also starting to recognize their names now and when they are in trouble. Once on vacation when Grandpa L told them they needed to go to bed Kara buried her head into my shoulder and started crying. It was so funny.
I have really noticed that Kara is a little more shy in certain situations and needs more time to feel confident in her surroundings. She will want to be held longer (or the whole time) and if you aren't holding her she wants to be next to you at all times.
They are starting to sleep a little better but have had these nasty colds with coughing and runny noses so I think that wakes them more then they would normally. At least no ear infections for them! Well... I should say the doctors thought Kara had one while we were on vacation because she had greenish yellow drainage from her ear. But a few good drops and that took care of it thankfully.
Abby on the other hand hasn't been so lucky. Since her last ENT visit she has had two more double ear infections. She woke up the other night screaming owie owie owie and has a runny nose. It's hard to believe that the powerful ZPAC wouldn't have killed her infection... we have an appointment on Tuesday so we'll see what they say.
The vacation with Tom's family was so much fun though even if it was difficult at times and exhausting. There will be many special memories to cherish. I promise that I will write a post here soon so that the girls can read about it someday.
Abby loves dressing up like a princess even if it is just a sun dress. I also got her 22 'new' dolls from Ebay that have clothes and shoes and accessories. She loves to play with them and even bribed daddy into playing with her. I found her a princess backpack on clearance that all of her little dolls will ride around in with her.
We watched my brother run in a Cross Country meet the other day. He did so well! He has worked really hard so it is fun to watch him compete. It was hard that the weather was cold (38 degrees) and the girls weren't thrilled with that. Abby was a little weepy.
