On a Personal Note...

I started Weight Watchers today as I've been finding it impossible to lose the last of the weight from my pregnancy with Cole. I'd also like to lose another 15 or so pounds on top of that. Wish me luck!

Eve and Cole's Doctor Appointment

So this morning we had Eve's 2 year checkup and Cole's 4 month checkup. They both did wonderfully. It was the first appointment Eve has had where she didn't cry at all! Both are doing great. Here are their stats:

Eve: 36 1/4 inches and 25 lbs.
Cole: 27 inches and 20 lbs.

Poor Cole had to have 3 vaccinations, and he has been extremely fussy ever since. He screamed off and on all afternoon even with a steady dose of tylenol, and just now finally conked out for the night.

We are just thankful and praise God for our two beautiful, healthy babies!

April already!?!

Wow, time really does fly when you're having fun! Although this past week hasn't been so fun as I've come down with a sore throat and a pretty bad cold, and unfortunately Eve is starting to show the same symptoms. Sick kid=no fun! Let's just hope and pray Cole isn't next. These past few weeks have been busy, busy, busy. We spent all of last week visiting family in Ohio. We had a great time seeing everyone, and the babies did as well. Eve is still talking about everyone! The only bad part of the trip was the car ride on the way there. Can we say T-O-R-T-U-R-E!? For nearly 12 hours, Eve and Cole seemingly took turns crying and screaming their heads off. Bear in mind that this trip usually takes us about 8-9 hours! We ended up having to stop nearly every hour for either a feeding, diaper change, or just to let the kids stretch out. Thankfully, we drove through the night on our trip back home, and it went much smoother.

This month looks to be just as busy as last month. The calendar is already full of appointment dates, Chris has to travel to Kansas City for a few days for some job training, and we are starting to search for jobs back in Ohio. Eve and Cole are now wearing the same size diaper...how crazy is that!? I weighed them here at home a few days ago, and Cole is a whopping 20 lbs. and Eve is merely 25 lbs. They are 22 months apart, and yet only 5 lbs. seperates the two of them! I will post again with an update in a few weeks after their regular checkups with the pediatrician. God bless!
