PINK EYE and Christmas pictures!

I just got both girls down, so I thought I would post another entry! Matt is out of town doing a catering event, so I will be alone with the girls this weekend. He did at least take the dog!!!

This has been quite a week! I'm sure that most of you have seen the pictures of Libby's first bout of pink eye! This has really thrown my plans of having Christmas pictures made! She started the antibiotic drops last Monday, which helped a ton! We were so surprised that no one else in the family got it because it is really making it's way around. Much to our dismay Libby got it again after we finished the antibiotics, then Lucy got it the next day!!! Now I have to hold down a 2 year-old and a 3 month-old for eye drops 3 times a day!!! As if my days weren't difficult enough already!

Here is a pic of Libby's eye the first time around in case you didn't see it!


We had to go ahead and get the pics made on Thursday despite the red eyes though because they would not be ready in time (which they may still not be)! That was an interesting sight! I tried to brave the portrait studio alone with the 2 girls ... big mistake! The photographer was trying to bribe Libby with candy, which just made the situation worse! Libby kept trying to leave the set to find the candy. Lucy was screaming her head of the whole time too - needless to say the pics were not that great! Oh well!!!

Lucy seems to finally be getting over her colic. She is almost 14 weeks now, so it is about time! I have been trying to get her to sleep in her crib (as opposed to in our bed), which has been a struggle. We have been having to let her cry some, which is never easy. It has been paying off though because she has slept through the night in her crib the last 4 nights in a row!!! She is becoming so much fun! She smiles and gives us this little belly laugh that will just melt your heart! She is my little cuddle bug, and I am so thankful for her. Here is a pic of that sweet little smile!
