Halloween Kids Party 10-30-10

Sweet sisters

A few weeks ago, I checked on Gabby and Ellie before I went to bed. A couple hours earlier, I had put them to bed in their own separate beds, as usual. (Ellie usually sleeps in the bed on the left with the blue bed rail). When I looked at Ellie's bed, I panicked momentarily, because I didn't see her, then I looked over to Gabby's bed, and found this.

(It only looks bright because of the flash). I moved Ellie back to her bed and she slept right through it. In the morning I asked Ellie why she moved to Gabby's bed, and she said she had been scared, so she went to Gabby's bed. How sweet is that!

In the Big Bath!

Maggie and Ben had their first bath together in the big tub last week.

It was a big hit!

Surgery Pics (and more)

So...Maggie and Ben got their ear tubes a few weeks ago. They had their follow-up last week and everything looks good. Here are a few pics from the surgical center. They were just so cute in their little green hospital gowns!

Our first ear tubes X 2

We're at the surgical center and it is 6 in the morning. "Why," you may wonder. Both the babies have had too many ear infections, and haven't been responding to the full spectrum of meds. So here we are...
