overdue

My dear fans... you are way overdue for some blogging! We've been rather busy... so I will have to share the blame!

HIGHLIGHTS:

Abby has decided that she must walk if she wants to keep up with her brother and sisters... so she has taken off. In fact, she is attempting to run and insists upon walking up the stairs!

Gabby found herself in a fight over a (for lack of a better word) "toy" with Mary... and Gabby lost. The desired object, which had elastic in it, flung back into Gabby's eye when Mary let go - which lead to a corneal abrasion. Three doctor's visits later (I am counting Daddy's review with his surgical loops as an appt) and some antibiotic goop and she is healing nicely. A positive from all of this is that the trio are trying hard to not fight over toys.

Mateo has been fighting a sinus infection and is finally on the mend. He was well enough to push the screen out of his bedroom window... and lucky for us, his guardian angel (Grammy) was keeping him safe. Normally we don't keep any of our windows unlocked but since our A/C was out for a week (with a power outage during that time) the 90 degrees was unbearable and we were using fans/windows to circulate the air. We are still counting our blessings on that one.

Mary is the "fall guy" of the trio. She is blamed for the shenanigans mentioned above (and more) and seems to hold them well on her tough shoulders. Price to pay for being the oldest, I guess. She has also really taken to Abby. She loves to carry her around and sing/play with her. The two of them together make quite the team. My two drama queens!
