We were going to a park playdate with some moms from the Upstate Moms of Multiples club – but it was going to be almost 90 out, and I didn’t want Audrey to overheat with her helmet on. So Wilma,another mom with 9 month old twins, and I met up for the first time at the mall. We had so much fun! And let me tell you – pusing around two sets of twins in big honking jogging strollers is quite the parade. We got stopped so many times and asked so many questions. Once, while Wilma was in the restroom and I had both strollers outside, a woman came out and said “Quads? Boy, you’ve got your hands full!”. We spent three hours walking, talking and shopping. Oh - be sure to check out Macy’s. Together Wilma and I found a lot of baby clothes on sale. The girls scored a Carter’s dress set (it has two coordinating dresses and bloomers) that had been $22.00, clearanced to $3.83!
At 5:00, my mom and I took the girls to the pediatrician. Audrey just has not been acting herself, has been super fussy and rejecting all forms of food. The doctor said her reflux might be back, so we are trying her on Zantac again. She weighs 15lbs 14oz. Natalie has a red bumpy rash on her cheeks, as well as some dry patches on her legs. The doctor diagnosed her with keratosis pilaris and eczema. We will start bathing her with Dove products, using dermatology approved lotions, and hydrocortisone cream when needed. Natalie weighs almost a full pound more than Audrey, at 16lbs 13oz.
Here is a video from this morning of Natalie showng off her sitting skillz:
Sharing their new toy – though I think Audrey likes her feet more:
Natalie and her new growling noise. She channels Gene Simmons with that tongue – and Audrey looks like a prune beard pirate:
wow. we found nothing we went to macy's recently. nothing. you are one lucky duck. anyway, thanks for continuing to post here. i played the videos (a couple) for my baby and she went nuts, beating at the keyboard, and inevitably stopping them a few times, until i got her closer and she tried to touch your babies on screen!!! I think she has a baby crush. She's only had one playdate of sorts, and it wasn't for a very long time, and she stole the other baby's binky. boy I have a mean baby. i really need to meet more people, so its not just me and the babe hanging out at home..hope your week goes really well with your 2 little cherry cheekers (a lot of their clothes have cherries!) at home!
