The Weir's: Memorial Day

Another busy week has zipped by. Ally turned 9 months old on Tuesday. She had her check-up appointment on the 20th and everything turned out great. She weighs 18 pounds and she is now 28 1/2 inches long. I told the doctor about her rash again and he took a look and said she had a yeast infection. I cannot believe that both Emily and her have yeast infections! He told me some different things to try and they seem to be working. The doctor also said that when Ally turns one, I can switch her from formula to milk. I cannot believe how fast she is growing. It will be nice not to have to buy formula every week at the store.

Friday was my 25th birthday. Dave woke up early and brought me breakfast and flowers. He decided to give me spending money as a gift and I was able to get a couple of much needed things. Dave made a special trip home for lunch to be with me and then he let me chose were to eat dinner. Without hesitation I chose Olive Garden. Jeff and Dorcas Weir came in late Friday evening and we had some ice cream cake to finish out the day. It was a great birthday. Jeff and Dorcas bought me a rose bush and a couple more things of flowers to plant. As soon as we are able to plant them, I will post pictures. We haven't been able to plant them yet because of a fire ant issue. Dave is taking care of it though.

Saturday we went to the Houston Museum of Natural Science were we visited the Butterfly exhibit. It was beautiful seeing all of the different types of butterflies and having them fly inches from our faces. Emily spilled all of her milk onto her lap during lunch, so Jeff and Dorcas bought her a lady bug shirt at the Museum to cover her short-less legs.

Sunday we went to the 59 Diner in Tomball. It is a fun place to eat breakfast because it looks like an old fashioned diner. The food is awesome as well. After breakfast, we went to the Houston Garden Center to pick out the rose bush. It was really neat to see all of the different types of flowers you can plant. When we got home, Jeff and Dorcas packed up and headed back to Dallas.

Today we woke up to Emily throwing up. Dave and I are still not sure why she did because she was fine the rest of the day. She felt a little warm, but she didn't have a fever. She acted a little sluggish, but for the most part, she was fine. Dave let me go out shopping for a couple of hours by myself. I enjoyed the quiet time of not having to put anyone in and out of car seats and strollers.

Here are some pictures of our time at the butterfly exhibit:
