Wow, so the twins are almost 6.5 months old. Time has flown by so quickly!
I took Hallie to the doctor last Monday because she was inconsolable and running a fever. The doctor looked in her mouth and at her ears and said "She's definitely teething, and the ear infection isn't helping anything." So, we started her on antibiotics and anticipated the ear infection would quickly clear up.
Wednesday, I took both babies in for their 6 month checkup and wanted to have Hallie's ears re-checked as her temperament hadn't changed. Her ear infection went from "mild" to "raging." So, we started her on a new antibiotic. Thursday afternoon she was still extremely agitated, so I called the doctor again and he called in "the big gun" antibiotic -- Augmentin. Finally, that night we got some relief.
Since there was very little sleeping going on, the twins' schedules are all screwed up and we are now working on fixing that.
Sorry there are no pictures for this update, but I can give you their 6 month stats:
James weighed in at 15.4 pounds and 25.75 inches long.
Hallie weighed in at 15 pounds and 26 inches long.
It's interesting to watch them grow compared to Ruby. She had more than 2 pounds on them at this point!
Ruby is doing well, too. She is in her "big girl" (toddler) bed for good now and we are considering moving her into a twin bed in the near future. Today was the last day of her summer nursery school and we joined the class on a field trip to the Little Ponderosa Zoo.
I will try to get pictures up later this week!
