February Update

Look at my doll face baby---could his eyes be any bigger!? 

 And Eustace is putting on the pounds :)

 Lucas my introvert, worked on this 500 piece puzzle for hours a day and recently finished :) 

 I went to make sure L & O were brushing their teeth before bed, and turned around, and saw Frankie took my bowl of popcorn and was chowing down (didn't spill any!) while Tyrone patiently waited haha.

 I got this diffuser (called Smiley Daisy) and use thieves oil in it daily. Nice smell and supposedly disinfects. I'm new to the essential oils stuff, but anything to help keep viruses away.

 My Eusty is getting chubby--likes to sleep on his tummy during the day.

 He has some mean looks when he's getting into trouble. He's a quick one.

 He bows to Eustace and gives him his forehead kisses.

 In big kid news, we decided to give L & O the MMR shot. It's not an issue I am ever really sure about, and my kids are not fully vaccinated. Our decision is partially because of the measles virus going around right now, especially since they are going to be getting back into soccer in a week, and possibly gymnastics, and then a trip to California this summer. But these are the reasons we felt it was the right decision--because they are older now and their immune systems are stronger, because our doctor doesn't use the shots that have preservatives, and a large portion of our choice is because of the reassurance we have, knowing that their pediatrician acknowledges vaccine injury and encourages natural homeopathic remedies and preventatives. She agreed with me about Olivia's vitiligo and did the allergy screening to find the underlying cause (a severe wheat allergy). Other doctors would have dismissed my concerns and suspicions. She goes against the grain (haha pun intended!) when she has to. So giving them the shot at their age was not such a painstaking decision, and I hope it keeps the babies safer by preventing exposure too.
   Oh--and Lucas was brave, Olivia screamed, and someone farted..lol..but we got through it and their totally fine now.

 I was trying to show how long Eustace's fingers are :P

 He's studying faces more and even smiled at Susan for some pictures:

 We went to a cool park in Frisco last week. Kids had lots of fun--Frankie ran around a while, but he likes to be on my back a lot too. And it's easier to keep track of all 4 that way!
