spent the day at doctors offices today ... belly & bulilit had their regular check ups today. belly's is like a REAL check up, with the nurse checking her blood pressure, eyesight and everything! gone are the days when she would sit on the baby scale to be weighed. when it was bulilit's turn, we plopped her down on the scale, all naked except her diaper, and she looked at us and grinned. it was hilarious. for being 20 months younger than her sister, bulilit is only 9lbs lighter and 3 inches shorter. craziness.
then in the afternoon, the achy/awful feeling e and i have been experiencing since yesterday finally got bad enough that i decided we should go to urgent care. in a span of 4 hours, we were seen by a doctor, drove to the hospital to get blood drawn, returned to urgent care and finally went home to wait for results. luckily, everything is good, just a viral infection of some sort that has to pass through our systems. as we walked toward the hospital, e and i reminisced on the last time we were there, bringing bulilit into this world. later, as we sat in the waiting area outside the lab, i turned to my husband and said, "i know this sounds weird, but i'm really happy that we're here together." because he and i never seem to have alone time with nothing to do -- even on date nights or dinner, i always feel like we're rushing to get back to the kids -- and having to do nothing but wait while people try to figure out what's wrong with us was kind of nice.
oh! and thankful that my mom jumped in at the last minute to come and stay with the kids while we were getting checked out!
