Huntington

This week I took the kids to the Huntington Library. They love to go there and walk around the beautiful grounds and play in the children's garden. It was so hot (87). Too bad the fountains weren't working in the children's garden because I actually remembered to bring Asher extra clothes. We got some nice pictures of some orchids in the conservatory and some camellias in their annual camellia show. Then we headed over to the Chinese garden. It just so happened to be Chinese new year. Gung Ho Fat Choy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Year of the Tiger. That is Jeff's sign.

Here is Asher watching his favorite show and singing his favorite song.

She is now 8lbs 14oz

We finally got Lorelei's Synagis shot yesterday. Since she is over 7lbs now they have to go with the larger dose. Which doubles our out of pocket expense to $430.00. It is amazing how much they can charge for one single injection. She will get one more next month (if we can get approval from the insurance company again) and then she is done for this season. She really hated the shot. She cried so hard that she lost her voice in the end. After a couple minutes she was fine again and now we are a little more relaxed that she has a little layer of protection against RSV. The doctor says that this years RSV season is really bad. This won't completely protect her but it will help and if she does get it, it should be less devastating.
I bought the moby wrap the other day. She really seems enjoy it. Now I can have my hands free for some of the day.
Yesterday I gave Asher a haircut. I think it actually turned out pretty good for someone who knows nothing about cutting hair. I figure he would never allow someone at a salon to cut it.
Today my mom is going back home. I really hope I can survive without her. It has been really great having her here. She stays up late with me and gets up early with the kids. I am going to be really lonely these late nights without her. "Come back soon Mom!!!". Thanks for all your help. I love you!!!!

New Pictures

Today Lorelei actually let me put her down for few seconds to take her picture. Check out the cute picture of the girls in their matching coats. Lorelei is also wearing her cute new booties from Jeff's cousin Sara. They fit her perfectly and are adorable. We have a doctors appointment this week (hopefully) to get her Synagis shot. I say hopefully because it has been nothing but trouble getting this shot from the pharmacy. It is very hard to get shipped in and approved because it cost $1800 for a single dose. Right now it is being bounced between two pharmacies for the last two weeks. She is supposed to get this every thirty days and is already a week late due to all the setbacks. I am hoping for a call tomorrow and then she can get the shot that protects her from RSV and I can get an update on her weight.
