House Full of Sickos

Sorry I haven't' blog or posted any cute pictures of Ava for a while, but we have all been sick. Ava started getting sick last week and then Rich and I both got it too. We actually took her to the doctor twice last week because we were nervous and wanted to make sure she was okay...this is RSV season. Fortunately she just had a little cold and it did not spread to her lungs. She is doing better now and continues to get stronger.
The only thing good/interesting about Ava being sick was she was weighed at both doctor appointments. It was fun and surprising to see how much she grew. The previous week we took Ava for her 2 month check-up and she weighed 8lbs. 11oz. During the 1st visit this last week she weighed 9lbs. 8oz. and at the 2nd appointment she weighed 9lbs. 10oz...CRAZY!! Ava gained 1lb. in a week. We were both surprised. We were happy to know she was gaining so much weight even though she was sick. Our next doctor appointment isn't until April, so we hope that will be the next time she gets weighed.

Even though she wasn't feeling well we still continued taking at least one picture a day. It is so much fun to look at the pictures and she how much she has changed. Here are some cute photos from the week.

Storytime with mom. Ava loves books. She especially enjoys Eric Carle books.

Yikes! We have been really lucky. Although Bob and I both got sick, Ezra has been fine!(knock on wood)I'm excited to find out how much Ezra weighs tomorrow at his 4 month check up. Hopefully he is gaining as well as Ava has been. I hope you all get feeling better.
