Mischief and Mayhem Always Follow Trouble

Adia's interest in potty training has gone out the window again. I have no idea how to keep her interested and it's very annoying. I'm so sick of changing poopy diapers on a 2 year old, especially one that's smart enough to know better. She's also such a pain when it comes to diaper changes. I am so ready to be done.

The twins are growing like crazy. I swear Mira weighs at least 11lbs already. Leia's probably around 9lbs. They look so much bigger than they were and they eat constantly. They're also much better sleepers than Adia ever was. Mira let me sleep 8 hours a couple nights ago, but she let me have it last night. She screamed for over 4 hours. And I mean screamed. Nothing would make her happy and you could tell her tummy hurt. I decided to open up a can of Enfamil Gentlease in hopes she just has a problem with the formula. After she drank 2oz of it last night, she fell asleep and slept until 5am. She then ate more and went back to sleep for a little bit. When Daddy took her this morning, she even pooped a little. She hasn't gone in a few days so I'm thinking that's also part of her problem. She's been a pretty happy baby today so maybe the formula did make a difference. Leia has been cranky though.

Both babies have their first colds too. That hasn't helped with their sleeping either. They're completely stuffed up and Leia's a lot like Adia. When she has post-nasal drip, it makes her gag and puke. Leia did that to me twice the other night. It was so gross and we ended up taking a bath at midnight.

Adia's been really into art lately. She drew me an awesome smiley face. I'm going to frame it and put it on the wall. I also bought her some watercolors. She's been having a blast playin with them. Now if only I could get her to stop knocking over the cup of water.






DiDi, Adia, the twins and I have been going for lots of walks lately too. Adia usually rides in a stroller or the wagon while DiDi and I wear the twins. It usually works pretty well and half the time Adia falls asleep. Yesterday she fell asleep in the wagon and took a nice long nap.




Adia visited the library for the first time last week. If there's one thing that Adia isn't, it's quiet so I was a little worried about taking her there. Not to mention all the books. She terrorizes the bookstore because she wants all the books so I had a feeling she'd do the same thing there. I was right. The second we walked in the door, she started talking at the top of her lungs and trying to run wild. The biggest problem were the drinking fountains though. She kept trying to climb up to get a drink and wouldn't leave them alone. I had to take her outside for a quick time out, but it didn't accomplish much. Adia did enjoy getting some Arthur books and an Arthur DVD. We've been back once to return our books and get more. Adia was better the second time.
