This and that

Things are going pretty well around here. Noah is having trouble gaining weight, and it is making me a little nervous. Before we thought it was just because I didn't have enough breast milk, but even with formula he is still so small. I had him weighed today and he was barely more than he was three weeks ago. I will weigh him again on Sat and see the doctor. There are so many reasons this could be happening, we will just have to see. In the meantime, I will continue to feed him all the time and increase his calories a little. He is also a little sick so I hope everything clears up soon. Everyone else is doing well. Justin was sick last week and even came home early from work, that is how you know he is really feeling bad! Then yesterday I felt yucky, but thankfully we are both feeling better. Today I am just trying to catch up on housework. It is amazing how much needs to be done after just one day of missed chores. I have been sticking to a chore calender that helps me keep on top of the housework. This house has been a challenge to keep clean. With almost 5000 square feet, it is a little overwhelming. Of course half of that is the basement which I have basically given up on, but I still have to pick it up once in awhile. Taylor is becoming my little helper. Lately when everyone else is sleeping she helps me do things. Today we vacuumed and cleaned the couches. Like her mom, she loves to clean! It is fun to spend time with her and do things like that. These pictures are from last week when Ellie hurt her leg and Taylor made a little foot prop for it so they could continue to play princess Polly pockets. They are having so much fun with those things lately. I am grateful. Well it is time to feed Noah again, wish me luck!
