Hello 6 months, Hello 3 years!

Can't believe how time flies...Evan turned 6 months over the weekend, and tomorrow is Trevor's 3rd birthday! They both had their check ups this morning and also received flu shots. Hopefully we will be spared the seasonal and H1N1 flu.

Evan weighs a whopping 21.4 lbs and is 28 1/4 inches long. He is still in the 95% for weight and height. Unfortunately, he is still rattling and has a bad cough. Dr. Blanke has diagnosed him as having reactive airway disease, and we start a 5 day treatment of oral steroids. I'm hoping they won't make him too irritable, and that they will help decrease the inflammation in his lungs. We also had a chest x-ray done this morning, but haven't heard what it showed. Dr. Blanke ordered this just as a precaution. My sister's boys also had this when they were young, and out grew it...I hope Evan follows suit.

6 months 1 day old!

Trevor weighs 36 lbs and is 39 1/2 inches tall. He is still in the 88% for weight and height. He did very well at his appointment by following directions and sitting still. He was also very brave for his shot and only cried a little bit. Getting a sucker afterwards always makes you feel better!

he was telling us "shhh!" because he was pretending to sleep!
