Busy weekend/week

Okay, so I got in trouble for not posting on the blog in over a week. Sorry for everyone who follows....the babies and I have been under the weather and it's been a long week. Here's a quick recap of our weekend/week.

Aunt T (my sister Tanja) flew in last Thursday to stay/help me for two weeks. Luck for her, all of our doctors' appointments are scheduled during this time, so she will be busy :)

Aunt Amy and Uncle Lee (Chip's sister and brother-in-law) flew in last Friday night to visit over the weekend. It was a short trip but we had a great time visiting. We'll see them again at Christmas!!

Sunday, we dedicated Aden at our church. He was wide awake when we got there but when the music started playing, he went right to sleep. Paster Jerry picked this verse for Aden:

"From birth I was cast upon you; from my mother's womb you have been my God."

Psalm 22:10

At the beginning of the week, Rainey came down with a runny nose, Aden was having congestion, and I started losing my voice. We called the pediatrician's office for Aden and because he is so young, there isn't much you can do. I started using saline drops and suction on his nose and a humidifier when he sleeps. Rainey had his 18 month check-up yesterday and looks great. He is on Zyrtec for his runny nose. He also got the flu shot for the season. The doctor also checked Aden while we were there. His ears and chest look/sound great. Just some congestion which will clear up in time. He goes back next week for his 6 week check-up. He is growing like a weed! Everyone is doing much better today.

Here are Rainey's stats from his 18 month check-up:

Height: 33 1/4 (75-90%) grew 1 1/4 inches since 12 month check-up
Weight: 25 lbs (25-50%) gained 1 lb 7 ozs since 12 month check-up
Head circumference: 20 in. (>97%) grew 3/8 in. since 12 month check-up

I'm going to post pictures on the next entry.
