Since last week....

Since our last post, Anara's diarrhea is a little better, we are sleeping a little more at night, and neither child seems to be ill. Anara had a couple appointments last week. It sounds like her hospitalization won't be as long as we had originally anticipated, but she will be in a cast for 6 weeks. The orthopaedic surgeon will have to cut her hip bones to be able to pull her pubic bones together in the front. This has to be done in order to keep her bladder inside her body after her surgery. Eventually her pubic bones will probably separate again, but it shouldn't affect her mobility.

Anara made her first trip to visit grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, and uncles. She seemed to enjoy visiting and was on her best behavior (no one will ever believe us that she was whiny last week). She crawled around finding new toys, smiling, and interacting with extended family. It was fun for Nate and I to watch her enjoy herself. This morning Anara started waving "bye bye".

Violet had a great time this weekend as well, but it seems that I am paying for all her fun. She is whacked out of her mind today and can barely keep herself upright. Every "no" or "in a little while" sends her immediately to the floor. She is eating lunch right now (yes at 10:00am) and will be going down for an early nap since she cannot focus with her eyes or keep them open to eat.

Sounds like Violet is acting just like my kids are. Isn't is a shame that going away for a weekend and having fun means you pay the price for the next few days? Its a good thing they are so darn cute!
