December 27, 2007

Christmas has come and gone it it was a nice day. The kids were spoiled like crazy by my parents. We have our second christmas on Sunday with Chuck's family and I am sure they will be spoiled there too..
I have now cleaned out there new born clothes to give away (I keep all the preemie stuff) I also kept they xmas pj's and halloween ones, the dresses they took there xmas pics in and there dresses from turkey day. As of right now there draws are stuffed with clothes and pj's. I even had to hang stuff in the closet. (This doesn't count all the stuff they already have larger the 3-6 months. Right now they are in 0-3 but I'd say in about 2 weeks they will be pushing out of most of that depending on the maker and into 3-6. They are growing so fast that I tell everybody that I think they double in size every 48 hours.
They are still not sleeping through the night. Some times I can get Riley to sleep a good amount but not Morgan. If I have a lucky night and do get Morgan to actually sleep then Riley for some reason is up. So far no luck in getting both of them down at the same time for a decent amount of time. When they do fall asleep sometimes (like now I am affraid to actually lay down and try to sleep cause it never fails that once I get comfy and sleepy one is up crying and needs to be tended too.. Not a big deal until your super tired and it's the 10th time they woke ya up. Not sleeping at all is sometimes better then trying to sleep and being woken up every 20 mins. After a night like that I am just miserable and grouchy and my body hurts and I don't feel good.
(SO pray these little princess's start sleeping throught the night in at least 6 hour spans.. It would be so nice)
They go back to the doc in Febuary but since Aiden has an appt on the 31st I am going to take them with me. They told me to bring Ri anyway if her foot still looks "swollen" so why not take Morgan too. Then maybe I can get them weighed and ask the doc to give Morgan something for her reflux which is back and kicking her butt. We'll see what happens..

Swollen feet??? That is the out come of the x-ray we had taken of Riley's feet. The foot that looks "funny" is swollen tissue. Hmmm ok so what now.

It was the other pedi that works in Dr B's office that called me back and told me. I called Dr B on Monday and he said that Yes the bones look fine and that the x-ray looks like swollen tissue. The nurse asked if it was still swollen and I said YES. It has been like this since the NICU just not as noticeable. We noticed her toes were long and funny but not her foot until she got home really. Now as she grows you can see it more. She asked me if it seems to cause her pain and I said NO. So the pedi will check it again on her next appt in 2 months if it is the same. But since I have to bring Aiden in for his RSV shot in 3 more weeks, she said if it's still swollen they will probably look at it then. The pedi that called me before Dr B said also that if it doesn't get better they will probably have us see a vascular doctor since it's probably due to the veins in her foot.

We'll see how that goes cause I assume it is still going to look the same in 3 more weeks.

On a holiday note.. We went to see santa. All dressed up in our matching PJ's.. So cute.. It was fun! and they looked so damn cute..
