Growing Babies!

Both of our kids are growing like little weeds! Camden will have his official birthday in just two weeks. It is so very hard for me to believe that he will be three. It's also very hard for me to believe that Merci is two and half weeks old already. She is such a pretty baby!!

I took Merci in for her check in with the Dr. yesterday. Last Friday she was still only 6 pds. 13 oz and he wanted another weight check yesterday. After messing around with a young nurse who didn't have a clue as to what she was doing, the Dr. came in and checked her weight. She is now up to 7 pds. 8 oz. The Dr. seemed impressed with her weight gain and said whatever we are doing to keep doing it. He also said he can still see some jaundice in her but that it is clearing up. He said that breastfed babies tend to hang on to jaundice longer than bottle fed babies. I told him I thought she looked better than last week and he agreed. She is due to go back in two weeks for her one month check-up. Camden was actually do for his three year check-up at the same time so we got him too. Both kids will go in on Friday the 27th. It's nice that I was able to do that, saves me the extra trip.

Well, the kids Papa (my Dad) is due to be stopping in very soon, so I should go. Check back soon for pictures of both kids and our pumpkin carving that we are going to be doing tonight. Our love to all.
