Rolling Along

Well, the good news is that the boys are finally healthy. Both of their fevers broke yesterday and no sight of them since. I subsequently canceled our follow-up pediatrician visit. It seemed unnecessary. We've been mostly laying low this week, recovering physically and emotionally from all that has transpired. In other much happier news, Evie rolled over on Monday, at exactly the same age that Addison did it. I told you they were physical clones. He was 6 days shy of 4 months. She was 3 days shy. And they did it the harder way -- back to tummy. This is how I found her during her morning nap yesterday. She slept that way just fine but wasn't too happy when she woke up and couldn't turn herself over.

So the 4th of July, which I've all but skipped over. We had one of the nicest days weather-wise that I can ever remember. 4th of July is notorious for being hot and sticky in these parts, but this year it was mild and sunny with a lovely breeze. Absolutely perfect.

The parade was fine but fairly forgettable. Except for this little gem.

Davis with Papa. Poor guy. This was before we knew he was sick. Look how pale he is. This was actually his first 4th of July in the US. All the others have been spent in a lovely land far, far away where they do not celebrate said holiday.

Hanging out on the blanket during the parade.

Addison.

We found this adorable chocolate lab puppy. The boys were ready to take her home.

The flag cake I made for dessert.

Evie's flag outfit. Not for consumption, obviously. Pretty darn cute though.
