11 Months: Kamryn & Laityn

It has been a busy and somewhat stressful month. The biggest thing that has happened is the girls ended up with RSV. They had so much congestion that they would vomit atleast once per day. In fact, this lasted for two weeks. So needless to say, sleeping hasn't been that great. However, I am pleased to announce that the girls are now healthy (knock on wood). With that being said, here are the "milestones" this past month that I can remember with my foggy, tired, brain!

Kamryn:
• 18lbs 1oz. Note: This measurement was when she was sick. In fact she lost 9oz in one day when she had RSV
• Was on steroids to clear her lungs and also received a shot in her leg for an antibiotic
• Went to the doctor daily for 4 days straight!
• Developed a rash with her new helmet, so we had to get it adjusted
• Learned how to walk behind her push toy
• Seems to be the dominant twin. She is strong willed and will also throw tantrums already
• Likes to pick on Laityn and gets jealous if she has something she wants
• Eats a ridiculous amount of food - loves crackers, bread, fruit, veggies, pasta, ho hos, soup, puffs, pancakes, and bacon
• She will continue to eat as long as there is food on her tray and she gets mad if she runs out
• Learned to clap and will do it on cue
• Pretty much skipped 9 month clothes and are now wearing 12 month
• Has 7 teeth

Laityn:
• 18lbs 2oz
• Made a trip to the ER with rapid breathing due to the RSV
• FINALLY started babbling!
• She likes to speed crawl and will do this with her head down, which results in her doing headers into random things
• Is a nice, clean eater. Kamryn smashes everything and shoves it into her mouth
• A low maintenince baby who will be content playing with her toys
• Accidentally fell down the stairs. Fortunately she was only scared and nothing major happened. Mommy had a heart attack though!
• Loves looking outside
• Hates getting her diaper changed
• Bathtime is one of her favorite things
• Has not figured out a push toy yet, but does cruise along the furniture
• Has 6 teeth
• LOVES all her food - crackers, bananas, pancakes, and pudding!

This has been a difficult month. I knew it would be hard when both girls were sick - I just didn't know it would be this hard! Fortunately things are turning around and we have our sweet girls back! They have a love/hate relationship with each other. Most the time they play, other times they fight and swat at each other. I just kinda laugh, but in the back of my mind, I think this is just a preview of whats to come!!
