Icky... Shots!

By Kerry -
Icky is one of Addison's favorite words. Today she woke up feeling "icky" and was running a fever. As luck would have it...ha ha ha... I already had a doctor's appointment for Emme. So we got a "two-fer" (two for one as they call it down here) and had the privilege of going to the doctor's office with both girls. Addison must be teething and that's what is causing her fever, runny nose, ear ache, etc. Nana Rose came to the rescue though and brought some new finger paints for Addison. Addison had a blast with them, but she also realized that she can "paint" with finger nail polish and enjoys doing that more than anything.

Emme on the other hand is perfectly healthy. She weighs 10 lbs. 3 oz. now. As for the "icky" part for Emme, she had to get four shots today. With two shots in each leg, it's hard for her to get comfortable this evening and she's running a bit of a fever herself, but this should pass soon. Hopefully both girls will be healthy before we travel.

I just know it!!! Emerson was triple-dog-dared by some older 18 month old punk who told her that "everyone was doing it" and she'd be cool if she did it also. That must be why she decided to use the jungle gym at school and do a no-hands-flying-trapeze-triple-gainor that landed her face first into the cedar chunks. This girl gives me fits!!! The fact that she never cried and the preschool teacher didn't see it happen was just icing on the cake and classic Emme... you can't turn away from her for a millisecond! And just for the sake of documentation, this picture was taken a good three hours after it happened. You should have seen her poor face when I picked her up at 4:00!

Pappy = Pee-Paw

Addison likes... no, LOVES to look at pictures these days. I guess for my generation it was tons of pictures in albums that were always so much fun. For her generation (I think they're still being called the millennials, but I'm not sure if she's too young to fit into that group), she points at my computer whenever she realizes it's around and asks to see pictures. Her favorite is looking at pictures of other babies. I like to show her pictures from another blog of a family in our area that has just had quintuplets ! She thinks they are the cutest and could look at the pictures forever! Yesterday, Addison snuggled up into my lap and asked to look at babies. I decided to pull up pictures of her from when she was a baby and ask her who all of the people were with her in the pictures. She knew most all of them, mostly because we talk about our family in different pictures quite a bit. Unfortunately, she just refused to believe that the man in a few of the pictures ...
