New happenings

Another post in less than a week? This is a record for me. Hmm....I don't even know if anyone "out there" is still reading this blog. It would be nice to know if any friends and family are still reading.


Today, Jacob finally got a tooth!! Actually, it was my friend who noticed it when she stopped by for a visit. Jacob starting gnawing on her knuckle and she felt the sharp tooth. I put my finger in his mouth and sure enough, there it was. It's hard to see because it's barely above his gumline and it's sitting a little back on the gums. I tried to get a picture, but Jacob was not being very cooperative.
It's his bottom front right tooth that has come in. It just serves as another reminder that my little angels are growing up. Soon they won't even be babies anymore. They will be toddlers before I know it. I'm trying to soak up all their baby goodness while I can.

In other news, Joaquin's allergist called with the results from his bloodwork. He lab results show that he is allergic to peanuts and eggs, but it does not indicate what his allergic symptoms would be or how severe his allergic reaction would be. We are not really wanting to find out by trying those foods, so we are going to try and avoid those foods for a while. The doctor says that Joaquin could grow out of the allergies, so that is our greatest hope right now. The lab results did show that Joaquin is mildly allergic to cats, but not to a significant degree. The doctor does not feel that we need to find another home for our cat at this time. That is good news to Javier because he has really been dreading saying goodbye to our cat, Bonita.

The days are hotter and hotter lately. While going to the pool might be a nice option for keeping cool, the stormy weather has made us housebound. We are going to try and go to the pool on Friday, weather permitting of course. The boys love the water and I like getting them out of the house. I'm crossing my fingers for good weather.

The only other thing in our near future is our trip to Texas. We are excited to get back to south Texas to visit family. It will be the boys' first trip by air, so it will definitely be an adventure. I hope it goes smoothly. I will try to remember to document the event with pictures and video.

Nothing else to report, so I'll sign off. Until next time,

Hi Latrice! I can't believe how big your precious boys are already, 8 months!! How time flys!! Thanks for checking in on our blog, sorry I haven't posted lately, as you know life gets a little hectic with little ones! I will try to update pictures in the next few days, he has grown a lot since the last post! I was just looking at your daily routine, my what a long & busy day! I am exhausted with 1, I can't imagine doing it with 2. Looks like you all are doing great! And I feel for you with feeling stuck in the house, I feel that way to many of days. We used to go somewhere everyday, but it seems to be getting harder instead of easier, or maybe he is just more demanding. :)
