We have a crawler!

This morning after sucking down his bottle, Brennan decided he was ready! I literally just sat there in disbelief. My little bug crawled clear across the big blanket we keep on the floor to save our carpet from spit up. It is always amazing to see their first milestones. Hopefully Carter won't be too far behind his (slightly) bigger brother.

Both of them have ear infections again. I was debating on taking them in to see the pediatrician, but I'm so glad I did, this makes the third one for both of them in three months. They weren't sleeping well at night or for naps. Over night, I would have to rotate babies - they would only fall asleep in my arms. This didn't result in good sleep for me, but we as moms and MoMs do all that we can for our kids.

They are on amoxicillin again and I have plenty of diaper cream and anti-fungal cream on standby for the nasty, sometimes yeasty, diaper rashes that come with it.

Evan decided to poop in his pull-up again this morning and not tell me. Would you like to know how I found out? I found a smear of shit on my living room carpet! Nice, right? Wrong. It took a good chunk of my morning cleaning him and the mess up, but we all survived.

An update on the weight loss show: I got the boot last Friday, so you won't be seeing me on tv again until the show's finale on April 30 (also my birthday). I've decided to keep up with it despite losing my free personal trainer. We are going to get rid of the babysitter and push that money towards my trainer, Jordan. I'll have to get ready a lot earlier though since I'll have to take the babies in with me to the on-site childcare, but I'll do it if it means staying on track. I'm hoping I'm a hot, fit MoM by the end of April!
