As for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord.

My Lord, What a Morning.

We've had a pretty full day at our house, and it's not even lunchtime.

About 2 am last night, we saw that the light was on in the girls' room. Jason discovered that Hallie was holding Sara and rubbing her back...in Sara's crib. Apparently Sara was crying, so Hallie hopped into her crib and flipped on the light and tried to comfort her. We took Hallie into our room to sleep/kick her Daddy to pieces and let Sara go back to sleep in her room. Sometime between then and this morning, Hallie got out of our bed and went back to hers. We know this because at 5:45 am the light flipped on again, and there was Hallie in Sara's crib waking Sara up. My poor little exhausted Sara Bee.

On to breakfast, where Hallie spilled an entire chocolate milk EVERYWHERE and then proceeded to walk in it and track it around the kitchen.

Then to the bath, where Sara pooped in the tub. Unfortunately, this was not discovered until her daddy had already bathed her in poop-water, so she had to be retrieved from the tub, the tub cleaned, and the girls bathed all over again.

I took Hallie to school, which was blessedly uneventful except for her quote of the day. I told her it was Pizza Day at school (which is every Thursday, but she still gets excited every week). Her response? She sang "hallelujah."

Jason took Sara to the doctor for her 18 month checkup, where he learned that apparently babies are also supposed to have a 15 month checkup. Oops. That means we missed a round of vaccines and are now a little behind...you'd think we could remember such things since we JUST did them with Hallie, but I guess not. Sara got her 15 month shots today, along with a seasonal flu shot, and Dr. Anderson told us to just bring her when we bring Brooks and she can get the 18 month round. THAT should be a fun day...

Anyway, he said she looks great. He gave us some prescription lotion for her sad little eczema spots on her skin. So hopefully that will help. Here are her stats:

She is 33 inches tall, which is the 75th percentile. She weighs 25 pounds, 6 ounces, which is the 70th percentile. Her head circumference is 18 1/2 inches, which is also in the 70th percentile. So, to my thinking, that's just about perfect. :)

There you have it. Our Thursday morning. Just another day in paradise...

Wow, that's a morning! it gets more and more fun as they interact and try to "fix" each other's problems, eh?

I'm sorry but your morning still has me laughing. Not at your misery but at those girls. The poop in the tub just keeps me giggling. God bless all of you. Nana

Oh to be a fly on the wall...and what an entertained fly I would be! It just keeps on getting more interesting with those two and I LOVE hearing the stories.
