Haha...I can't remember if the girls slept all night or if I had to go in there to put them back to bed. LOL - I guess I'll go with they slept all night!
Donna came this morning and was a big help with the girls. I stayed home so that I could bring Emily back to the doctor for a recheck of her ears. I brought all 3 of them along and had Hailey's ears checked too since she's been complaining. NO EAR INFECTIONS!!! Yay!!!! Bringing all 3 of them to the doctor is quite a trip though. We left at 10:15 and didn't get home until 12:30.
The girls took a nap and went down with no problems. Actually - Emily was reading a book a little too loud so Hailey kept saying 'Night Night! Night Night Emmie!!!!' Haha. I love having the monitor to see and hear these things.
When the girls woke up my mom was here and so was LB. We hung out and played for the afternoon. My mom left and then LB left and then not longer after that - Pete came home from work. The day seemed to fly by.
Hailey went on the potty 3 times today. Twice she peed - and once she pooped! She actually asked to go herself too - it wasn't prompted. There was a lot of pop pop eating going on in our house today! LOL I don't mind though.
Pete and I were talking about how the girls are really good. We complain - but it's not that the girls are spoiled or bratty - it's just that there are 3 of them so one tantrum is really 3 and one plate of food on the floor is actually 3 and so on. But at the same time - we get 3 times the kisses, hugs, giggles, laughs and love. ;-)

Day 133
The girls slept most of the night. Either Hannah or Hailey woke up early this morning - can't remember which one of them but I went in and put her back to sleep no problem. It maybe around 4. They slept until 7 this morning so that was nice.
I got up with the girls while Pete slept in (he let me sleep in yesterday morning). The girls were really good this morning. Sometimes in the morning they can be very difficult until after they get their milk. Not today though. They were happy go lucky - yay for me!
Pete had a lot to do today in terms of getting out and buying Emily a toddler bed since her crib didn't turn into one. Haha...she walked in the room yesterday and saw the other two toddler beds and her mattress was still just on the floor. She said 'Where's Emmies?' LOL - so Pete went shopping TODAY. Long story short - we have the bed but it's not set up yet. A few snags along the way but nothing we couldn't handle.
While he was shopping I took the girls to Lucy's house so we could visit with them. We haven't been over there in a quite some time so it was really nice. We went early (much earlier than the normal population would consider visiting someone!) but her door is always open. She even made breakfast (yup...it was that early). Waffles, French toast sticks, sausage, eggs, bagels and coffee - it was yummy! The girls ate a ton and then had a ton more fun playing with Alex and Brianna. They played a bit with Bella (the puppy!) but only through the gate really. The girls did well considering they're not huge fans of dogs.
We left there and came home to nap. Hannah thought she was too big for a nap so I let her stay up (only for her to fall asleep on me later because she was exhausted). But it was good because it made me actually sit on the couch for a little over an hour. I needed the break! I even watched a movie with Pete and LB (Big Daddy I think it was...it was funny).
Girls woke up in not so great moods from their nap and Pete still had to go back out. Not yay for me this time. But we managed. We played with cars in the hallway, danced to some music, ate some cookies, drank some water, and even looked through the Sunday paper picking out things we though were cool to look at. Anything to kill some time and keep from pulling hair, biting, pushing and wrestling. A lot of that going on lately here. You'd think we had boys!
Pete came home, we had dinner, changed into pj's, brushed teeth, read books and then it was in the beds for the girls. We didn't stay in their room tonight. We just put them to bed and left. Hailey got up once but I went back in, put her back to bed and by the time I got to the bottom of the stairs they were pretty much sleeping.
We cleaned. I worked online. We played games online. We watched some of the game. And now - we need sleep.

Day 132
What a night and what a day. Emily and I spent the better part of 4 hours at the ED last night. Final diagnosis - they (the doctors...and more than one) don't know. I get it. They're not Gods - sometimes we'd like to believe they are. When it comes to our kids - we need them to have all the answers. But they had no medical reason for why Emily couldn't use her right leg.
They had me put her down and move to the other side of the room and ask Emily to come to me. She cried and cried, said 'up! up!' with her arms out so I'd pick her up. Then she begged. "Please momma please." OMG it broke my heart. I kept telling her 'come to me baby - come on' and she did. She got down and crawled to me. WTF - I was so freakin' scared.
They didn't do an xray - the doctors didn't believe there was a break or fracture after they examined her. But they also couldn't say what the problem was. So eventually they said 'Go home and come back if it gets worse.'
I brought her home and Pete changed her and put her to bed. Then I had some homework to do. Good thing I got home at 11 because my work was due by midnight lol. Then Pete and I went to bed. Hannah woke up @ 3 and didn't go back to sleep until 5. Lord we are tired.
Up and ready for the day...at home. No MyGym today because we wanted to give Emily time off her leg. She woke up and was able to walk - thank God. But she was limping and complained a couple times of some pain. But as the day progressed - she seemed to get better. By the time they went to bed tonight - she seemed fine. We'll skip the gym for her tomorrow too - another day off the leg might be good.
We had a full day but it all meshed toghether. The girls had a play date today with Owen - you can see pics on the girls blog. It was a great afternoon of fun and playing. The morning was rough - the girls were just hitting, biting and pulling each others hair all morning. But after nap and they were good (which was good cuz that kind of behavior when there's a play date wouldn't be good would it?!?!).
We gave them baths early tonight because Pete was headed over to his parents house for dinner. So I fed the girls after their bath, played for a bit and then we were upstairs to brush teeth, read books and in the beds! Yup beds. Well 2 anyway. Two of the cribs we had turned into toddler beds so Pete spent the afternoon putting them together. We'll buy Emily a toddler bed tomorrow.
They went to bed with somewhat of a battle but nothing I couldn't handle.
They're sleeping - hopefully for the night. Pete got home a little while ago and now we need sleep.

Day 131
They slept!!!!!!!!!!! Yes they slept on their new beds. Here's how it went. We had to lay in their room for an hour until they fell sound asleep and the we slipped out. We put a gate up in their door so we could shut the door leaving it open a crack. They slept until about 2am, I think it was Hailey that woke up so I went in there and laid on the floor. She was asleep in 10 minutes and I was able to go back to bed. Then they slept till Hannah woke up at 6am. At some point in the night we heard a door close, it was the girls bedroom door. Hannah had inched her way of the mattress and to the door hitting it so it closed. We opened it a crack and put a towel down so it couldn't close anymore. They were all sleeping so we didn't try and move her.
This morning was the usual, gave the girls milk, got ready for work, Joey is watching them. The girls even took a nap on the new beds today. I thought for sure they wouldn't sleep. Joey had to lay in the room for 10 minutes and they were sleeping. They slept for 2 hours.
When we got home Emily would stop walking and hold her leg. She has a yeast infection from the antibiotic she is on so we thought every time she pee it hurt. It wasn't until we were getting them ready for bed that we noticed she was grabbing her leg and didn't want to walk on it. Long story short Michelle is at the ER right now with Emily. The doctor tried to get Emily to walk but she just cried and got on her knees to crawl over to mommy. They are waiting for an x-ray now. We can't figure out what could have happened. No falls today, no pushing, what the hell happened. Anyway, Joey and I got the other two ready for bed and I laid in their room until they fell asleep maybe 30 minutes. I cleaned the kitchen and living room and now I'm waiting to here from Michelle.

The girls were up from 2 - 5 this morning.
We were late getting the day started.
Hannah tried to practice some sort of maneuver by trying to climb out of her crib today.

We bought fish food.
We came home and redid the new toddler room.
Mattresses on the floor = new toddler room.
We all ate dinner.
Pete and I spent 1 hour on the floor in the girls room at bedtime.
The girls are sleeping - but not for long.
I skipped (no choice) school to help with the new 'situation'.

Day 129
Today is Wednesday. The girls slept all night I think. I know I slept and didn't wake up at all. The girls were at my moms today. At about 8am my cell phone rings and its my moms number so I answered. It was Emily!?! She got a hold of my moms cell phone ran to a corner and called me. So funny. The girls took a 3 hour nap today. Wish I could do that. The girls got home and we played while dinner was getting ready then we at. Then we gave them a bath before putting them to bed. Hailey wasn't going to sleep so Michelle went in and calmed her down. Now they are sleeping. Michelle is doing homework. I have some laundry going as well as a list of other stuff I need to do but I'm so tired I'm not doing any of it tonight. Tomorrow is another day.

Day 128
Only Hailey woke up last night and it was only for a quick minute. I'm not even sure she was actually up - I'm pretty sure she was having a nightmare because she kept crying 'mine, mine, mine'.
We got up and got ready to get the kids to Pete's parents and then we were off to work.
The girls seemed to have a good day.
We came home, had dinner, played - then I was off to school and left LB and Pete to hold down the fort and put the girls to bed.
I'm now home - the girls are in bed and sleeping. I'm only to assume that they did the usual night time thing and that there were no problems since I didn't get a phone call saying 'ummm...help!'.
Now it's time for work on the computer before going to bed to hopefully get a full night of rest.
