Auntie Timery

One of my best friends, Timery, recently moved back to MA along with her husband, Steve, and their 3-1/2 month old baby, Jason Beckett (JB). I haven't seen Timery since January when she was pregnant and Silas & Zoe were only 3 months old. We have been very excited to meet JB, so we headed up to Ipswich today!

Ipswich is a beautiful community on the north shore of MA, about an hour's drive from Boston. There are lots of antique stores and other cute shops, as well as several world famous clam shacks. It just so happens that the Clam Box is around the corner for Timery & Steve's new place, so we will definitely be eating lunch there next time we visit!

I had been telling Silas & Zoe that they would be meeting their cousin, Jason, today. Zoe couldn't wait to check him out!


Silas, on the other hand, was very interested in all of JB's toys.


One of S&Z's favorite things right now is exploring other people's houses. After we all had some lunch, they had a blast playing peek-a-boo under the table with Timery while Jason took a nap.






After peek-a-boo, they proceeded to wreck havoc.



Ultimately, half of Timery & Steve's belongings ended up on the dining room table.


Jason is a very sweet, cute baby! I was so happy to get some snuggles from him.

After so much playing, everyone needed a bottle break. Silas & Zoe were so curious about JB getting a bottle.


Both of them gravitated right over to Auntie Timery.



I gave Timery a break by giving bottles to S&Z as well!


Before I knew it, we had to hit the road home. I am so thankful that Timery, Steve & Jason are living so close by. I have one of my "sisters" back, and S&Z have a cousin to spend lots of fun time with too!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Parks

We decided to get Zoe's haircut on Saturday morning at a place geared towards kids called Snip-Its . Neither Derek nor I anticipated what a meltdown Zoe was going to have. The haircut is half-assed at best and Derek will have to fix it when she's more calm. We were so traumatized that we headed to the park to get the day going on a better foot! We went back to Larz Anderson, the park where the  Psychiatry picnic was held on Thursday . It is really close to our house and is lovely and shaded. I think it's one of my new favorite spots! The kids like it too :) S&Z love playing with wood chips, so there was a lot of that! Snacks were enjoyed on the bench and I tried to get a few pictures of the haircut... Excuse me, I'm chewing pretzels :) This morning we met up with Wendy, Dave, Sydney & Ivy at the Newton Center Playground. It was HOT HOT HOT, and there wasn't too much shade. The kids have inherited my low tolerance for heat, so they spe

Sickness Update

We saw the pediatrician again this morning - it was our 4th visit in as many weeks. Both kids have an antibiotic-resistant sinus infection. Zoe also still has an ear infection after 5 days of meds; thankfully Silas' double ear infection is finally gone after the 10-day round of amoxicillin. While in the waiting room, we noticed that a rash had appeared on Silas' arms and trunk. Since this coincided with being on meds, Dr. Rundquist had to assume it might have been related to the amoxicillin. Silas was going to get a non-amox antibiotic for the continued sinus infection, and because it's easier to have them on the same meds they were both prescribed Suprax. Silas' O2 saturation was also down a little and he was wheezing during the exam. Apparently he also has broncholitis and he'll be treated with albuterol. He was given a nebulizer treatment in the doctor's office that he tolerated amazingly well at the end of a very long doctor's visit (we were there for 2
