Bouncer

Maddy loves her bouncer. I think she actually likes the bouncer more than the exersaucer. She fits better. Today we put her in it and she had started to bounce a bit. She just giggled and kicked. So awesome to watch. She's getting so big.

Sick kid again

I took Maddy in for her four month checkup today and started asking the doctor about Reagan. He suggested I bring her in to get checked for strep. So I made an appointment for this afternoon. Guess what - she does! Holy cow.

Here's the weird thing. Reagan has had these "knots" on her neck (both sides) for a few months. The doctors have said that it's due to infection and not to worry. Only worry if they become more swollen and warm to the touch. Well, they were today.

So during the visit, the doctor suggested lab work. Sigh... I have no idea what he is testing for, but typically it's for cancer or some other lingering or severe infection. I am just SICK thinking about cancer in a three year old, let alone mine!

I am so scared that there is something really wrong. My mom said to pray. I am and have been since I heard that. I am just so scared. Please God don't let anything be wrong with my angel!

Look ma, I can sit up

Maddy is starting to really do well in her bumbo seat. Now when I put her in it, she starts to shake and move her hands towards the toy before I even get her set up. It's hilarious. She gets so excited. I love it. She works so hard to pull that toy out of the tray without ever getting it out. She opens up her mouth likes it's going to get there. So cute. Today I felt bad and actually gave it to her. She tried to find a way to get it into her mouth. Every once in a while, she'd look at me like "really mom?" SO cute!

Chillin'

Maddy has a funny thing about her sleeping. When she's on you, she likes to put her hands behind her head. Sometimes she will actually fall asleep that way. It's funny. I have several pictures of her laying like that in her bouncy seat, on her play mat and also sleeping on either one of us. So cute.

Size three diapers

She's already in size three diapers. Doesn't seem right, but she is... :( She's growing too fast for me. Sniff sniff.

sick little girl update

Called the doctor this morning. He said it sounded like croop which is a viral bug. Nice. Keep the baby and her away from each other - no physical contact. Nice that is impossible.

sick little girl

Reagan started coughing and wheezing tonight. I'm worried that she has the whooping thing. She ended up having to join Jim and me in the basement during our movie night. Right now, she's in our bed with Jim and I am out here on the couch. Divide and conquer!
