For the first time, Daniel and I officially left the boys for an extended amount of time (3 ½ hours). We were invited to a local Halloween party being hosted by a colleague of mine. My handsome Spartan and I left our treasures in the hands of our fabulous friend and neighbor Martha. We’ll have to do date nights now that we took this first huge step!
We finally bought a camcorder this week. I don’t how we didn’t include that biggie in all the pre-babies purchases we made. We just felt the purchase was necessary, since they are just doing so many cute things. Money can always be made again. These precious times can never be recouped.
The pediatrician was visited this week since Baby Daniel was running a fever of 101.3. Despite measures to bring the fever down, the visit was necessary. I went to work, the nanny stayed with Anthony, and Daniel took Baby Daniel to get him checked out. He was diagnosed with a mild case of herpangina (a virus much like strep throat). It didn’t require meds. We just had to monitor the fever and come back only if there was vomiting or diarrhea. The fever broke after another day of being fussy and needy.
On Sunday, we took the boys to a pumpkin patch. We had them take a pony ride. They only lasted about a lap before they started crying. We took some pictures before heading to the petting zoo section. That wasn't too much of a hit either. Maybe next year they'll be ready.
On Monday we took the boys in for their 6 month wellness visit. They received another round of the vaccinations. The pediatrician said that we are now to introduce them to solids and sippy cups. Stay tuned for pictures of their first mouthfuls next week!
Recent stats: Anthony is 20.6 lbs. and 29 inches. Baby Daniel is 15.5 and 28 inches.
Babies R Us got another deposit from the Blas Family after the pediatrician appointment. Since we got the green light on solids, we had to buy high chairs and sippy cups. While at BRU we decided to get pictures taken.
P.S. Thank you Auntie Leah for saving the day with the Fever All!
