Fevers & Teeth

Things have been chaotic in the Mixon house. Starting on Tuesday of last week, Maddox & Lukas both had a nasty stomach bug with a fever. Normally, we would have chalked it up to teething but with them both having it simultaneously we treated it as a stomach bug. They were both not hungry, fussy and ready to puke for about 3 to 4 days. Everyone is now better and we have two happy babies!

Maddox wants to crawl REALLY badly. She rocks back and forth and it down right frustrates her that she can't do what she wants. If you help her, she gets mad...if you pick her up, she gets mad...if you leave her in the floor, well, you get the point. She is so close and I can't wait to upload the video of her crawling, because it will happen SOON!

What a LOOK...

Lukas has his FIRST tooth! Woot Woot! It cut through a couple of weeks ago and he is drooling and chewing like he is ready for another one to break through. Lukas has also discovered that yelling is a good way to get attention. If we go to the store or a restaurant and someone walks by without giving him attention, he yells. "Ahhh"..."Ahh" Once they shoot him a look, he is all smiles. Such a ham, that one is.

Everything else is going great. We are enjoying the summer, but trying to stay out of the heat. We filled up our kiddie pool in the backyard and we take the babes swimmin' at least 2 to 3 times a week. They love the water! We visited Cody's grandma this past weekend. She enjoyed seeing the babies and they enjoyed having her attention.

I am constantly taking picture after picture of the twins. I'm pretty sure they think they are famous, cuz the paparrazi is crazy around our house. My camera will take picture after picture quickly in a row...below is 4 pictures taken one after the other. After looking back through the series of shots..I noticed Lukas's facial expressions...
