Uncle Bob's

Yep, we know, it is about time for a new post. Things have been busy around here as the twins are still nursing their colds. Alison took Meredith to the doctor's for her cough as it is pretty flemmy. I guess the only thing she has is a small ear infection. I am going to take Annalyse tomorrow morning for her cough and potential ear infection as she hasn't really been eating. Needless to say the twins haven't gone to sleep too easily, so most of our evening (no kid time) has been rocking the sick and spending the night in the recliner. The Joys of Parenthood!

Annalyse had her monthly follow-up appointment with the surgeon. Everything is coming along great as her head in nearly symmetrical now. She will still need to wear the helmet till June as the skull continues to heal and grow. In June she'll have another CAT scan to make sure the skull is healing properly because after the surgery her skull looked like a jigsaw puzzle. A couple of appointments ago we found that she has over 100 screws in her head along with several plates, but they are dissolvable. Here is a website about craniosynostosis http://www.ccakids.com/Syndrome/Craniosynostosis.pdf. She had the plagiocephaly form.

Nothing really happened last week, but on Saturday we decided to visit Uncle Bob at his place. We decided we should see where he works and lives, since he is only hour away and has been there for 6 months. His apartment is pretty nice, a lot of room for one person. While at his work, he showed the girls all the animals they have. Megan was pretty timid with the animals, except for the snake. Some of the animals included: rabbits, turtles, an iguana, snakes, doves, a bald eagle, different owls, a hawk, and several others. And like any good employee, he ended the tour at the gift shop, of which a t-shirt was purchased:)

Meredith is an official walker now, she walks everywhere, instead of crawling.

Upcoming Weekend

Alison's parents will be traveling down here on Thursday as we are all going to a wedding on Saturday, which Alison is a bridesmaid and Megan is the flower girl. Megan is excited, but I'm sure she'll chicken out when it is game time.

Other than that, the van is running good, bowling is going good (average back to 200) and one more softball practice before next Thursday first game on April 10th.

See Ya, MAMAM
