update

so, last week was a rough one. all the babies got sick...evie had 103 fever, followed by ayla with 102, and then braxton woke up in the middle of the night and said his ear hurt and it needed medicine. i knew then that we all needed to visit the pediatrician!

braxton had fluid in his ear and a sinus infection three weeks ago, but after seeing dr. abel (my first successful trip to the doctor with all three by myself), we were informed that all three of them had right ear infections. this is our first encounter with ear infections - strange that they all happened at once. but i am thanking the Lord for it...He knows i couldn't go without sleep that long (if they happened one after the other). so we had a few sleepless nights and now we are back to our regular sleep pattern! yea!

braxton is still not completely potty trained. it's an ongoing process. :(

ayla and evie are both doing great. they can sit up for about 5-10 seconds unassisted...of course rolling everywhere and really trying to crawl (which looks like they are practicing swimming techniques).

we will be participating in parent dedication on mother's day weekend, so we are looking forward to that. david's family will be in town, too, so it will be a nice treat.

all in all, things are well at the chaplin house.
