This morning I have felt like a mad scientist. I have to collect urine and stool samples from the boys and this is my reason for feeling like a mad scientist. I will spare you the details, but just say that it requires putting samples into different vials. Oh the fun!!
Now you may ask why am I collecting the urine and stool samples. The boys are not gaining weight as they should be, so we are doing some investigating. We went to the doctor on Friday to recheck their ears and check their weight. The good news is that both of their ear infections have cleared up, while the bad news is that they haven't gain much weight. So since this is not normal the doctor wants to run a bunch of tests to determine if there is anything causing them not to gain weight, that is where the urine and stool samples come into play, along with blood test, and appointments to visit a couple other doctors. David and I are pretty confident that they are healthy and active boys, but we want to be sure that is the case.
In other news, I am working again. I am tutoring math a couple of afternoons a week up in Olathe. I am working to find daycare from about 2:30 to 5:00 on those afternoons, so I can go into work earlier. I am enjoying it. I love getting out of the house for a few hours. I also enjoy talking to other adults, and doing things non mommy related.
David is getting very excited to take 3 qualifying laps in a Stock Car at the Kansas Speedway this weekend.

Jenny they both look very healthy to me. I remember David when he was a young one and he wasn't a big baby either. Just to be safe you can go for the testing but I think they will tell you they are fine. Congrats on your job. Everyone needs a little time away from the little ones to keep their sanity.
