Still a Hot One

Today has been pretty good, even with the heat. We have had a few troubles over the weekend. Claire got her first bee sting on her leg. Thank goodness for First Aid Kits. She is OK, and thankfully she doesn't appear allergic.

Today, we have had poop issues in our home. Too much poop. On the weekend, Catie was without her diaper and pooped on the deck...bright green poop. Must be all of those blues. And, today we are still having troubles with Carly. Poop in the panties, poop on the bathroom floor, in the clothes. Gets a little tiring and frustrating after awhile. I am hoping that by Kindergarten that will end. She just gets to tired/too pre-occupied and forgets to go. Frustrating tho.

Cameron, he is good. He is getting so tall. I was clipping his groddy toenails and fingernails and realized just how big his feet are now! I remember clipping his baby toenails almost 7 years ago with one clip, now takes 3 good clips across. Crazy. His birthday is right around the corner.

Claire, she went out for greek food to a birthday party for a great grandparent she doesn't even really know. (Cliff's Dad's Mom)Grandma turned something like 90+. Claire got all cleaned up, hair tidy, and ate a tonne of calamari. She had a good time, and got home around 10 pm last night. I am happy to hear that she was very well behaved. Our little Claire is heading to Kindergarten in September. She cannot WAIT!

Carly, she is very active our Carly. She loves to give big hugs. Lately she has shown interest in playing in the backyard, and sometimes prefers to stay quiet and away from everybody. She has some sort of accent when she talks, and the other kids imitate her. Almost like she is Italian or something. She loves to talk, and we love her big brown eyes.

Catie, she is so funny. She constantly amuses us lately. She has been using real plates, cutlery and drinking cups for dinner. She really wants to be like the "big kids"and is constantly at the water cooler filling up containers, and now thinks it is really funny to remove her diaper. (thus the poop on the deck)

Caroline, well, she is almost 3 months old, and is sleeping in her crib and sleeping right through the night. She has been doing this for well over a month. She is a great little girl. She has the biggest toothless grins that I could ever imagine. She makes me so happy when she responds to me. Makes all of those sleepless nights of the past worthwhile. She has found her hand too. And, I report that her neck gets that mungy smell (yuck) as she has such chubby neck rolls, and that skin doesn't see daylight lol. Next month a trip to BC Children's Hospital to check on her kidney via ultrasound and ped. Urologist.

There, a bit of an update.

Caroline needs me.
