No need to worry

Korri and I went to her doctor appointment today and low and behold...she weighs NINE POUNDS, SIX OUNCES!!!!!!!!!!! So, yes, she is getting enough! The doctor said she is simply perfect and acting like a perfectly normal baby. Yay. She said it is very unusual that mom doesn't have enough milk for her baby, so I should try to stop worrying about that (I know, I know!). She said to keep her on the Zantac for now since it seems to be helping, and that I should try to avoid foods that make me gassy (because they, in turn, would make her gassy). So, it was a great appointment. I'm so glad we went.

A first last night: I got peed on while holding Korrigan! From what I remember, Finn never peed while being held, he just peed on us when he was laying down (which Korri obviously can't do for anatomy reasons!). I undressed her for a bath and stupidly took her diaper off before I washed her face and hair. She peed when I took her diaper off, so I thought I was in the clear. Guess not! Oh, well. If it isn't puke, it's poop or pee, I guess ;) The life of a mom (or parent!).

Finn is having a bout with an intestinal virus. He hasn't been eating very well the last few days and wasn't pooping regularly (he normally is very regular). He woke up from his nap yesterday completely covered in diarrhea (poor grandma got to clean it up since I was feeding Korri!). I just thought it had built up over a couple days and didn't think twice about it. Then around 10pm last night, he started crying, which he NEVER does at night. Again, I was feeding Korri (kind of convenient, don't you think?!?!) so Mom went to check on him and he had the same thing! So I rocked him for a while and put him back to bed. He didn't have a fever, so I wasn't overly concerned, but wasn't sure what to do either. The nurse called me back around 11pm and she said to just keep him hydrated and have him eat lots of carbs (adds volume to the stool) today. She also said it can last between 5 to 14 DAYS! Yuck, but that the first few days are the worst. I was just hoping it was something he ate and would be fine by today. So far today, no diarrhea, but really stinky toots and still a low appetite.

I was getting ready to leave for Korri's doctor appt and Finn was having a hard time. He then decided he wanted to sit in Korri's car seat, so I said fine. This is hilarious to me (and he obviously thought he was pretty funny, too):

He's a little bigger now than he was the first time he sat in it (3/27/09):
