Spring Break, Easter & 9-month Check-up

We have had a busy past week. Aunt Lauren came for the week (and brought her "friend" John, the policeman!). The girls had a blast staying up past their bedtime and playing with their aunt. I was able to take some time off from work on Good Friday and the Monday after Easter. On Friday we went to Canyon to see all the Hensons for a few hours. After visiting, we traveled a few more miles north to Amarillo to visit all the Bandys. We had some good dinner and fellowship with everyone. We traveled back to Lubbock late Friday night, but the girls did not sleep in the next morning. Lauren, the girls and myself spent all Saturday doing what girls do best- SHOPPING!!! Walt spent the day at home (for full details of his day see his blog) not feeling well. On Easter Sunday we woke up to cold, dreary weather. Luckily I had been watching the weather and knew that it was going to be cold, so we had purchased sweaters to go with the girls' dresses. We went to church with the fam- the girls were beautiful. Lauren left Sunday night- we miss her already!




On Monday the girls had their 9-month wellness check. They are growing like crazy -

Lily: 20.6 lbs, 28.5 in

Gracie: 19.10 lbs, 28 in

We found out that Gracie had an ear infection- I thought Lily had one... missed it again. Kids should come with "indicator lights". She has started antibiotics and is feeling much better. This week has been more "normal"- whatever that is with 2 infants. I hope everyone had a great Easter holiday. Be sure to check out the new pics on Flikr!.
