Poor Brayden took forever to get to sleep last night. He kept coughing and coughing. Finally around 9:30 or so I decided to move the humidifier back to the boys' room and he was able to get to sleep shortly thereafter.
Aubrey slept through the night again. Can't say the same for Carter. He woke up a number of times, but just wanted a paci and then went back to bed. As long as he doesn't need a bottle I figure we're moving in the right direction. Aubrey woke up to eat a little after 4:00 again. Carter got up just as I got out of the shower which worked out well.
Calvin wanted a bowl of Cheez-its this morning. He spilled them while on the way to daycare and asked dada to "clean up. made mess". I reached behind me, but couldn't find them so I asked where the mess was. Calvin said "right here" and then grabbed my hand and moved it to where the crackers were in his car seat.
Erin had her six week follow-up visit today. She is cleared to do just about everything now. She just can't lift heavy objects or do any ab related exercises for another six weeks. The doctor said everything was looking good and that the swelling will be 100% gone in six more weeks.
Calvin didn't eat any of his dinner which was macaroni & cheese, baked beans and applesauce. Instead he ate Cheez-its. He also enjoyed dropping Cheez-its on the ground and then stepping on them. As soon as dada sat down to eat dinner Calvin said "up please". He sat on my lap and proceeded to eat my macaroni & cheese. I also had some meat that he wanted and actually ate.
Aubrey was playing peek-a-boo with Brayden tonight. Erin was holding a book in front of Aubrey while she was in Erin's lap. Brayden was standing in front of Aubrey. Aubrey would duck her head below the book and then pop up and laugh. She did this at least five or six times so it was definitely intentional. That's a smart little girl.
Carter is really crawling now. He is up on his hands and knees. He's also really fast. You only need to turn around for a few seconds and he'll be on the other side of the room.
Erin picked up another humidifier today and we set it up in the babies room. The kids weren't coughing much tonight. Hopefully they're getting over whatever it is that they had. At least we have another humidifier in case we need it. We turned both of them on tonight.
Calvin and Brayden got a bath tonight. While I was getting the bath ready Erin got the babies ready for bed and put them down to bed. The boys still aren't crazy about getting cleaned, but they're getting a little better. After the bath it was time to go to bed. Erin was reading to Brayden while I read to Calvin.
I was reading the Dinosaurs A to Z book to Calvin tonight and he said "Gallimimus no teeth" when I showed a picture of the Gallimimus. I probably told him once a few days ago that a Gallimimus has no teeth so I was shocked that he remembered. Especially since I didn't remember. I had to read the description of the dinosaur to figure out that he was right!
