Zen Babies and Gwyn update

Well, I think we’re past Alexander’s first growth spurt which lasted two LONG days of feeding about every 1.5 hours.  We’re back to sleeping about 3 hours, eating 10-20 minutes, sleeping 3 hours…and repeating all day long.  Since Stu doesn’t get to be home during the day and since I get bored, I take a photo of the day and e-mail it to Stu, John, Gayle, and my family.  I’ve only done it three times so far, I think, but today’s was by far the best.  Witness Zen Baby and Angry Baby.  These photos were taken within 1 minute of each other.  It’s crazy how fast he changes.

On the Gwyn front, I think she has a bug.  I took her to the vet today after two days of RUNNY RUNNY poos—immediately after the Titanic Poo in Alexander’s room.  Vet saw nothing wrong (but there was no stool for her to test, as Gwynnie had pooed it all out) but gave her a shot and some pills we’re supposed to give her morning and night.  I guess it’s like doggy immodium or something like that.  Anyway, we should know tomorrow evening if the pills are working or if there is something else we need to check on.  Keep your fingers crossed!

The Gwyncident

So we’ve had our first Gwyncident.  I was downstairs with AK and Gwyn and all of a sudden Gwyn disappeared—which is not uncommon, she likes to go upstairs and look out the window.

Anyway, after AK ate at 12:30(for 23 minutes!) I took him up to change him and put him down.  I smelled something funny and looked around the room and there in the corner by the rocker (where Gwyn gets really possessive of me) was the BIGGEST, I mean HUGEST pile of poo I’ve ever seen my little doggy make.  It was gigantic.  Titanic, even.  Guess she’s making her thoughts on AK known!

At least it wasn’t a violent Gwyncident!  Everything’s cleaned up and hopefully will be smelling better very soon!

Welcome

Joy, Alexander, Gwyn and I welcome you to our journal!
