We spent Wednesday in Quadville - as we do nearly EVERY Wednesday!
The babies were getting ready for baths when we arrived. Amber gave them oatmeal baths to help Kailey.
They all went to the doctor Monday and Harrison had a double ear infection while all three girls had fluid in their ears. Antibiotics all around! EXCEPT Kailey had an allergic reaction to it! She broke out in red blotches all over!! I tried to prepare Louis Dean for when he saw her but apparently I wasn't prepared myself!! She looked up at me from the bathtub and her little eyes were all swollen and her tiny body was covered in those horrible welts. I teared up immediately! By the end of the day the swelling had gone down even more. She DID notice the red spots on her arms and legs!
Logan has THE most beautiful hair!
You can see Kailey's face is swollen in this picture taken at lunch.
By dinner she looked even better!
That's our BOY!!! He can repeat just about anything you say these days!
Trystan and Logan woke up from their naps first so we took this opportunity to take them outside to try out that tricycle I bought at the Salvation Army on Tuesday.
These babies are such sweeties and they DO love their Granddad!!!
Louis Dean always says there's not enough money in the world to buy this kind of precious love!
They love going outside!
They were so good at taking turns!
The quads know what 'wait your turn' means and are familiar with the word - NEXT!
I think the tricycle was a success!!
Now for the film clips!!
They are so entertaining!
I love the sound of their laughter!
Babies don't stay babies long........
I wouldn't trade our Wednesdays in Quadville for anything!!
Trystan is our little teenager!
Love hearing Harrison talk.
Especially when he says SMOOCH!!!
They are loving the new books a friend recently sent them and can already 'read' some of them!
Dinnertime and after is the BEST time!!
Amber and Mike are such good parents!
The babies are already learning their ABC's!
Yesterday I was feeling a little under the weather so today I took it easy.
Slept late and then took a walk.
Louis Dean and I worked in one of our flower beds along the driveway.
There is something therapeutic about pulling up weeds and cleaning up planters.
The layering of red cedar chips made it all look so pretty.
I took a shower and a long afternoon nap.
It's nearly 8:00 and I am already looking forward to going to bed!
But FIRST I must go in there and deal with my closet.
We have slept the last two nights in the guest room because I hauled out every stitch of clothing from the closet! Now it is past time to get in there and clean it all up!!
I will close this evening's journal entry with a photo from 2006.....
Amber and I were in London celebrating her 21st birthday!
Memories are wonderful things! They allow you to relive happy times over and over again!!
