Almost 7 months but......
I know Elliot is almost 7 months old now, but when he went for his 6 month check up 3 weeks ago he weighed 18 lbs 8 oz, so I am sure he is at least 19 pounds now. He was in the 25%ile for height and 75% for weight. I can't remember what his head circumference was, but it was small and under the 50%ile mark. Now Olivia, who is 22 months older than Elliot weighs a whopping 27 pounds. Are you serious? Only 8 pounds more?
Summer break started out pretty cruddy, with Kim, our day care provider, calling me Friday afternoon and telling me that Olivia had a temp of 103.7. To make a long story short; after 2 trips to the clinic on Friday and Sunday, and trying to figure out if Olivia had the barn yard disease again (hand, foot and mouth) a virus or strep, I finally came to the conclusion last night that she is once again a barn animal, as more spots appeared in her mouth, as well as on her feet and bottom. It was tricky to figure out this time though because her symptoms were not the same and came in a way different order than they did the first time. She has been incredibly moody and I am extremeley tired of sharing my bed with her. To top all of this off, she also has night terrors, which were out of control last night. Poor baby.
Poor Elliot has been orphaned by me since Saturday and I miss him something fierce. Fingers crossed that he does not come down with this and morph into some cross breed animal as well.

Oh Boy
It has been an extremely long time since I have had time to blog and an awful lot has happened, so instead of one HUGE blog I will attempt a few little blogs over the next couple of days.
Oh where to begin. Elliot is growing like a weed. I'm not even sure what he was doing the last time I blogged, but as of now he rolls over, sits on his own, crawls, has two teeth, eats a crap ton of baby food and just recently has discovered he can make noises and says baa baa baa baa pretty consistently. He has also said mamama a few times.
Olivia is a handful and is rather moody these days. Her favorite things to say are "I'll be righ back" as she holds her hand up as a stop sign and "almost". If you ask her any question which requires an answer with a time frame or tell her something that has a time frame in the statement (i.e. "it's time for bed") her answer is "almost". She continues to potty in the potty AND in her diaper, as she is not fully potty trained yet, but we are still working on it. She loves having her own room (oh yeah, we moved) and really is a big help with Elliot, though I think there may be a bit of jealous at times.
