Not so happy campers

We have hit a transition time in the boys' development. They are in the process of dropping their 3rd nap, but haven't fully extended their awake time. This leads to fun days filled with fussy screams from tired boys. On top of that, they are all teething. (Wes' top front teeth have just poked through, and Win's are quickly on their way!)

And to make matters worse, we had to bring them in for their RSV vaccination yesterday. The upside to this appointment was that the boys were weighed. Charlie: 17lbs 15oz, Win: 18lbs 12oz, and Wesley: a whopping 19lb 3oz. Unfortunately for Wes, the dosage was calculated based on weight, so he had to get two shots.

Perhaps out of sympathy, Julep started limping yesterday. Well, it started with a slight limp and quickly turned into a hop. So Rob took her to the vet today and although the cause is still unknown, she is now on bedrest. So she is confined to her crate (which had been stored when the boys arrived since we ran out of space).

On the bright side, we have had Rob's sister Lori (Lala) with us for the past few days (as well as her husband Tobias for the weekend). Amazingly, she is still here despite all of the above.

Aw poor Julep. Maybe she has a torn ACL like Nahla.
