Ok, I realize that I haven’t posted in a while. We had a bout of cold/flu/coughs that just wouldn’t go away. For weeks! Isaac had an upper respiratory infection, which turned into an ear infection and required a second round of antibiotics, then Gabby (along with a cough that just wouldn’t quit) ended up getting pink eye. So, rather than blogging, we were visiting the clinic (over and over!) and working on getting everyone healthy! I’m happy to say that we are all doing well again!!
So what did you miss out on in the past four weeks? Well, Isaac is in full crawling/climbing mode and loving every minute of it. His face tells it all – a mischievous little grin. He can pull himself up and pushes onto his feet to stand if he’s got something to hold on to. Number one thing in his world right now is Gabby’s step stool. It’s a great climbing tool and uses it to practice his “downdog” (yoga). I can tell you that he IS able to sit up by himself, but you’ll never witness it. This kid doesn’t sit still long enough for his butt to hit the floor! He is always on the GO, GO, GO! Still such a happy little guy. We’ve been dealing with a rocky sleep schedule with him though – up one to two times a night with one nighttime feeding. In discussing this with the pediatrician, we are hoping to wean this schedule by the time he is 9 months. Cross your fingers!
Gabby is suddenly so much more advanced in her thinking. She is VERY observant and asking a lot of how, what and why questions. And she is extremely nurturing. She loves to help take care of Isaac in any way she can. We call her Little Momma. Currently, her number one activity is jumping. Jumping on the bed, jumping off the stairs, jumping on the couch…etc, etc, etc. Jumping, jumping, jumping! Between trying to keep track of climbing Isaac and jumping Gabby, I’m starting to think that corralling them both in the crib was a good idea (see previous post)! :)
