A Weekend of R&R and Fun

This was our weekend in a nutshell. Maddy is finally feeling better and her high fever has subsided. She is so full of snot that she keeps gagging and throwing up - poor thing! Gabby has been hacking up her lungs with the slightlest bout of physical activity. Lilly has been charging through all of this, with a slight runny nose and a strange rash followed by hives. This weekend was a little R&R and some fun playing at the park and in the back yard. Yesterday Grandma Debi came and watched the girls so Gordon and I could escape on a bike ride...she timed her visit perfectly and all the girls were asleep! She did get to experience Lilly with a "hard wake-up" from a nap! The afternoon was incredible weather and the girls were outside playing until 5. We had to break out the other baby swing because Lilly didn't think sharing her red swing was OK. I didn't cave because of yesterday but I did cave because we have all summer of swinging to look forward to and Lilly is still small and will want to swing in the little swing for a while longer. Lilly is doing very good with going pee on the potty. Poop is another story. She went poop on the potty for the first time on Friday so we are getting closer...and she told me as soon as she did it this weekend but I missed having that happen on the potty both days :( I can't tell you how bummed that made me - is that weird? Gabby likes to sleep with the bathroom light on. We keep turning it off and somehow during the night, it keeps coming back on. It makes us wonder how much sleep is she really getting?? Anyhow, that sums up our weekend. Lots of fun family time and I am hopeful that everyone is on the mend and will have a better week.
