On April 20, 2011, Dottie rolled over on her own for the first time! This was very exciting! Dottie is getting bigger every day. She is such a happy baby....laughing and giggling more. She is just so sweet!!
Melonee is getting into everything these days, but sweet as ever. Ryan and I have found that giving Melonee and Dottie a bath is quicker and easierr if I get in with them and hand them off to Ryan to dry off. Well, last week the three of us hopped in the bath. I started with Melonee and she was having so much fun that we left her in while we gave Dottie a bath. We finished Dottie's bath. As Ryan left with Dottie, the bubbles in the tub started dissolving...Melonee looks at me with a mischievous smile. I then start to get Mel out and I see something floating....low and behold Melonee had pooped in the tub. The chaos begins!!! I start yelling for Ryan...sling Mel out of the tub and the poo disintegrated all over the place. I started sanitizing and had to redo Mel's bath. We now know not to let Mel get too relaxed while taking a bath. Of coarse, she didn't know any better.
Melonee has been sick for about a month now. On Friday the 22nd, Melonee developed a fever. So I didn't take her to story time. Very disappointing. We missed the egg hunt. (Oh! On April 16th, Nana and I took Mel to an egg hunt in Brentwood. It was cold and damp, but Melonee had a great time.) Also, on Friday, we dropped the girls off at Nana and Pops so we could go celebrate Ryan's birthday. The girls are always excited to see the grandparents. Ryan and I went to watch the Source Code and had dinner at PF Changs with a small stop at Toys R Us. Back to Nana's we go...Mel's temp had come back...Dottie was relaxing with Pops. By the time we made it back, the medicine had kicked in and Mel was ready to go. Matthew and Renae were playing with her. She was back on the move. Somehow Mel got half of a plastic egg behind her back and slid down the couch...she had a scratch all the way down her back. That went great with the scratches on her face from a fall going to look at Alice's house earlier that week. Needless to say this made for a long night. After Melonee calmed down, we got the cake and gifts out. Ryan enjoyed his birthday celebration. Time to head home and straight to bed!
Saturday, Melonee still had a fever and felt bad. The girls and I stayed inside all day. I wanted Melonee to be ready for Easter. Dottie is still so little that there aren't any issues other than eating, sleeping, laughing, rolling, and using the bathroom. I really enjoy my girls!!!
