Ryann had been playing outside all day and was really dirty. So I told her that she needs to take a bath before she goes to bed. Normally she LOVES to take baths but she was So tired and grumpy that she was fighting me and didn't want to do it. FInally she gave in but on one condition..." Okay mom, but I want curlers in my hair!" Thats my girl!
Brooks is so good with Dax. He is the only one of the kids that can hold Dax for me when I need help and Dax doesn't cry. He is such a BIG help to me.
Dax has had a hard time gaining weight for whatever reason. At his 2 week check up, he weighed 7.2 lbs. My doctor was concerned since at their 2 week check up he should be at least back to birth weight, 7.4 lbs. So they wanted us to bring him back in in a week. He should be gaining 1/2-1 ounce everyday. I brought him back in in a week and he had only gained 1 ounce. I was so upset and worried. This kid eats all of the time and never spit up. Where was it all going? After that, the pediatrician wanted me to nurse him AND supplement him with formula and see what happens. So after a week of that, we had a weight check and Dax was at 7.9 lbs . Next week, 8.1lbs and the week after that, 8.12 lbs. So for whatever reason, it just took him a little while to gain weight. So at 6 weeks Dax is 8.12 lbs.
