Growing boys!

The boys made a trip to the doctor this week (unfortunately). But with everything that's going on (my sicknesses - which I haven't blogged about... more later, baby coming, etc.), we just wanted to make sure everyone was WELL! Hudson's had a second round with just a lingering cough, and I was afraid Cade was heading into his second round of albuterol treatments in a month. Anyway... Hudson, who sounded sick & is prone to his fair share of complaining, had an irritated throat but tested negative for strep (thank goodness!)... Cade, who just sounded tight and you'd never know had anything to complain about, tested positive for strep! Go figure! (His fussiness comes after the fact, usually, with all the heavy steroids.) Both got medications for strep (to make sure we can be around little sister by the time she comes) and Cade was given a few days of steroids (of course) to knock out his cough with the go-ahead for albuterol, as needed. So, we've been busy doctoring ourselves all week... but we're hopefully heading into a healthy Labor Day weekend!

Anyway... my point in blabbing on & on about this was not to be blabbing on & on, but to make note of how much the boys are growing! :) They were weighed & measured at the pediatrician's office.

HUDSON = 42 lbs. and 43"!
His weight has remained pretty steady, but he's grown about 1/2 inch this summer!
CADE = 36 lbs. and 39"!
His weight, too, has remained pretty steady, but he's grown several inches this summer! He's really stretching out!

Keep growing boys!!!
