Off to the Doctor (not to worry!)

Today we had a pretty normal morning, although it was spent indoors as the weather was dreary again! We are really getting our money's worth out of the toys we have! HA!

Riley has proven that he is part monkey for sure. This boy can scale anything in record time. How someone that small can a) reach the things he can and b) climb the way he does without climbing equipment. OMG! Madison is keeping her title of the happiest baby on the block! She spends most of her day giggling and smiling. The little things bring her true joy!

This afternoon we made a trip to the doctor. Madison has had a dry patch near her eye for a while and I just wanted to get it looked at. My gut said eczema, but I wanted to be sure. My mom met us there as going to the doctor with 2 active babies is nearly impossible. So nice of her! She managed the monkey, I mean Riley, while Madison and I chatted with the doc. The doctor thinks my theory is correct, but we will watch it over the next week and see if the treatment helps. If not, it may be some other sort of dry skin we can treat another way. Nothing serious or a big deal, but worth checking out.

While at the doctor, both kids got weighed...Madison is up to 19 pounds and Riley is at 17 1/2 pounds. They did not get their height, but I have a feeling Riley has taken a bit of a lead in that department. We will see...

When we returned from the doctor, the kids were ready to RUN! Well, crawl and climb anyway. Riley immediately found a box that was delivered to the house today and Madison hit the ground crawling.


Yahoo! Tomorrow begins the weekend! Daddy Days! We hope to get some stuff done in the yard and the carpet cleaners are coming...yikes! I will have to take the kids out while they are here as they are totally scared of the vacuum, I cannot imagine what they would think of the big carpet cleaning deal...I am sure there will be good stories tomorrow!
