Dear Ethan and Rose,
We have had a busy summer so far. I took an MBA class in July, so you spent
quite a bit of time with Ummichi in Lincoln.
Ethan
You started crawling in the normal style! You started out
crawling by doing a worm style movement where you used your arms, legs and
stomach. You still cannot eat any
solids. When we try to throw up quite a
bit. You have had some great times for
your breathing in the last few months. A
little bit of congestion and wheezing came back when you were in daycare for a
few weeks. So, we started Qvar. The dose is a bit higher than I would like,
but you will go down to a lower dose if they think it is helping. We have an appointment later in August. You got tubes put in on May 13th. Your right ear keeps getting clogged. We have been trying ear drops but can't seem to get it clear.
You are still quite a happy guy, even in the
midst of teething. You have one lower
tooth that is mostly out. Others on the
bottom are trying to push through, and your two front teeth are trying to push
through also.
Rose
You are talking so much now! It’s great that you can tell us
what is bothering you, and what makes you happy. You were being funny last night saying “My
name is NO!” and cracking yourself up.
You have been doing quite well with pull ups for awhile now and going
potty. Ms. Denae at St Luke’s really
wants you to try underwear. So, we will
give it a try this weekend! We just had
all of your cousins in town last weekend.
I think it really motivated you that Tristan goes potty on his own. You have enjoyed swimming in the pool this summer. We have only gone to the park a few times, but I hope to go more in the next couple of weeks.
Love you both!
Mama
