Don't Be Rash...

This week was pretty eventful, if you are a mom of twins and your whole world revoloves around seemingly small milestones and occurances in your child's life. Gage developed a rash last weekend, and we assumed that it was related to the antibiotic for his ear infection. So, we called the Doctor and got a new perscription. Problem solved? Ah, no. A few days later I gave him a smoothie made with some soy milk--viola! Rash-city. So, it was apparently the soy milk, which we had bought for Reid because he's been having so much trouble with constipation, and I was thinking it might be related to dairy. The soy doesn't seem to be affecting Reid at all...but, Gage won't drink it in a bottle so they don't switch bottles anymore. Sippy cups, pacifiers...those all get traded back and forth. But bottles now remain with their owner.
The other "big" event this week was the death of the morning nap. One day, Gage just wouldn't go down. Reid was asleep...but Gage would not nap, until he fell asleep in the middle of his dinner. Then, the next day neither one would nap. I tried starting at 11:00am to get them to nap, and didn't have a successful attempt until 2:00pm. So now, they only take one nap in the afternoon. I think I'm going to like the new schedule. We've also had a string of really good nights with them, and that's been exciting. That's all the big news this week. I tried to upload our Christmas card picture, but for some reason blogger is being strange. Then again, it could be our computer. Oh well! Hope everyone has a great week.

Don't you ever put clothes on those boys? They look like they've gotten so much older/bigger even since Christmas. When can I come out?
