Sickness going around

Trey and Bella's twin play group had to be canceled today. One set of twins had family coming to town, so couldn't make it. The other two sets of twins each had one sick twin. Let's hope the "sickies" aren't going around because Trey and Bella don't want to be sick!

Trey and Bella were very well behaved for Mommy tonight for dinner and bathtime since Daddy was at a golf tournament!

Naps for 2

Trey and Bella both took at 2-hour nap at the same time today! WOW! Mommy took advantage and had some Mommy time, so she read a book!

Play Date

Go E-A-G-L-E-S!

Trey and Bella have been practicing standing by themselves today without holding on to anything. They are doing great!

Lots to do

Trey and Bella went with Daddy to Grandmom's house today while Mommy taught ice skating. Daddy and Pop Pop helped Grandmom by picking up some stuff for her new bathroom!

Trey and Bella then went to Bennigan's for Lunch with Mommy, Daddy and Grandmom!

Mommy stayed up late to write out Trey and Bella's thank you cards for their birthday party. Now she can put them together once the photos are developed!

Spots!

Poor Bella has a bad diaper rash from her antiobiotics! Hopefully it will clear up with the over the counter cream the doctor recommended.

Poor Trey has 1 lone chicken pox from his vaccine last week! It is not contagious and it normal after the vaccine for some children.

Happy Birthday Cara & Mia

Happy Birthday 3rd Cara and Mia!

Trey and Bella had physical therapy today. Miss Donna said they are both doing great. They can both stand on their own. Bella is trying hard to walk, but doesn't get herself steady enough in the standing position before she tries to take off in a run. Trey is very steady standing up, but sits down as soon as he realizes he isn't holding on to anything. Now it will be a race to see who starts walking first!

Play Date

Trey and Bella had playgroup today with Connor, Skyler and Raina. They had lots of fun!

Check up

Trey and Bella had their "one year" check up today with Dr. Caroline since Dr. Dave is on vacation.

Trey weighs 16 pounds and 5 ounces and is 29 inches long! His head circumference is 45 1/2 inches! This puts Trey in the 5th percentile for length (25th percentile adjusted) and 25th perenctile for head circumference (50th percentile adjusted). He is not yet on the growth chart for weight but is at the 3rd percentile adjusted!

Bella weighs 15 pounds and 1 ounce and is 27 1/4 inches long! Her head circumference is 44 1/2 inches! This puts Bella in the 7th percentile for length (40th percentile adjusted) and 25th perenctile for head circumference (50th percentile adjusted). She is not yet on the growth chart for weight but is at the 3rd percentile adjusted!

Its time to get out the "big girl" and "big boy" Britax car seats! Dr. Caroline recommended keeping them rear racing until 20 pounds or 2 years, which ever comes first!

Since Trey and Bella couldn't get their CBC blood tests done prior to this appointment due to their small viens, we will be getting it done before the 15 month check up!

Trey and Bella are allowed all foods not except peanuts, which we are holding off on until 18 months.

Bella still has her lingering ear infection, so she will be on an antibiotic for this and will be rechecked again in a month.

Trey will be getting Kidscort on his back to help the dry skin.

Trey and Bella will be getting the flu shot in Ocotober and will more than likely qualify for the Synagis (RSV) shots again this winter.

Trey and Bella each got three vaccinations.

Dr. Caroline was very impressed with them and said they are on track with all of the developmental milestones for 12 month old babies! They both walked (with Mommy), clapped, poked, climbed and talked for her. Trey decided to show off and saw "thank you"! Dr. Caroline said this is an 18-24 month skill (putting 2 words together). Dr. Caroline said that Trey and Bella are very intelligent babies and are doing great overall!

Happy 1st Birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday Trey and Bella!!!!
