Back to the doctors

Last night I went to the movies with my friend, Arlene and during the movie Matt text me and told me Livi's eye was swollen and had eye goobers. I was annoyed considering we were just at the doctor not even 6 hours earlier and he said she looked perfect. I was about to walk out the door to go to work this morning, but Livi woke up and I went into her room to kiss her goodbye. I walked in and her eye was extremely swollen. I called my mom told her I'd have to take Livi to the pediatrician and might not make it to work. Only the convenience care clinic was open and was walk in appointments only. They opened at 9am so I got Livi dressed really quick and got up there a few minutes after they opened. Already there were like 10 people in line before us. Got Livi checked in and was thrilled to find out her pediatrician was the one working. The nurse took us back to an exam room and we waited a few minutes for Dr. Schoos to come in and as soon as he did Livi put both her little hands on her cheeks and yelled 'Ohh no' it was priceless. She's so dramatic it's hilarious. She had issues yesterday with him examining her so I think she thought it was going to be the same again. She sat on my lap while he looked at her eyes and checked her ears back out, and thankfully she warmed up to him and didn't throw a fit this time around. Turns out my little booger got pink eye...ugh annoying he said she probably got it from being at the office yesterday. So she's getting eye drops 4 times a day for the next 5 days.
It was a beautiful day today and Matt had the night off so after Livi's afternoon nap (and mine as well hehe) we decided to go up to Mud Mountain Dam have a picnic, let Livi blow bubbles and enjoy the sunshine. (Don't worry she wasn't around any kids with her pink eye) After we left Matt ran in to Target real quick and bought Livi Toy Story 2 on blu-ray so we ended our night eating Chinese food and watching the new movie. I love days when we can spend all day as a family.

Kids check up's

Both kiddos had check ups this afternoon. Livi was so excited about going to the doctors until we got back into the exam room then she started to freak out.

Livi's 2 1/2 year stats
Weight 38 lbs
Height 39 1/2"
Alivia is over the 95th percentile in both her height and weight. Dr. Schoos estimates her full grown height at six foot 2 inches. I hope she's not that tall, but we'll see. We held off getting Livi's MMR vaccine for a while so today I finally gave in and she got it. It took me and the nurse to pin her on to the table so she could get the shot.
Ian's 2 month stats
Weight 14 lbs 9 oz
Height 24 1/2"
head circumference 15 1/4"
Ian is at the 75th-90th percentile for his height and over 90th percent for her weight. He had to get 2 vaccines and an oral vaccine.
Both kids got a clean bill of health which always makes us happy knowing they are healthy and growing properly.

Mother's day

Happy Mother's Day to all you mom's out there! Hope you all had a wonderful day!
I had such a great day, I got to sleep in then we went to my parent's for breakfast. Every year my dad makes waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. It was over 70 degrees today so we took the kids to the park and while there decided we should go up to Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. Matt and the kids got me and I-touch for my mother's day gift. I've been wanting one for a long time.
Picture over load enjoy!

So good!

Graduation

My sister, Shealun graduated from Saint Martin's University on Saturday. It was such a beautiful day! The ceremony was nice, but was it hot in the building. Between the long, boring speeches and the heat I think everyone was getting tired. I brought Gidian with my parents and myself. Livi would have been a wild animal if we would have brought her along. So she hung out with daddy and went to a birthday party instead.
Congrats Shea we're so proud of you!!!!


Little man slept through the whole thing

9 hours of sleep


Ian slept for 9 hours solid last night! The longest he has at one time. I woke up at 6am expecting him to wake up anytime. Fell back to sleep and he woke up around 8:15 am I haven't slept that good in months! I could get use to this. I enjoyed the 6-7 hour stretched he's been doing but 9 hours is amazing! Ian will be 2 months old tomorrow crazy!!!

Mom's day photos

I got an early Mother's day gift yesterday :) The kids had a mini photo session with Stacy Jacobson at her new studio in Sumner. She just sent me my photos and I love them! Wish we could have got a photo of them together but Livi wasn't in the mood to hold Gidian.
