Parker and Austin's Weekend Away

Tomorrow morning I am taking the boys to meet Larry and Reba in Rockwall to spend the weekend there while Todd and I go to Marble Falls for a wedding. I am excited about the time they will get to spend with them, excited about the break I will get but nervous at the same time. They are my babies and I am constantly in control of everything to do with their lives but I will have to let go and know that they are in good hands with lots of loving. I know everyone will be ok in the end and I will be happy to see them Sunday evening.

Packing for these munchkins has been a chore! I have packed everything from meds to clothes to their silverware for eating!! I have even typed up a list of info for Larry and Reba to reference if needed:

Fun at Nana and Gaga’s

Here is a list of meds you may or may not need and their dosage.

Austin:

  • Ibuprofen-3/4 tsp every 6 hrs
  • Ciprodex (ear infection meds)-3 drops in infected ear 2x day
  • Children’s Allergy Relief-3/4 tsp 1x day at night
  • Delsym-1/2 tsp before bed only if coughing
  • Inhaler-1 tube = 1 6-10 min treatment every 6 hrs as needed for wheezing
  • Infants gas relief-0.6 mL as needed for tummy ache

Go ahead and give the allergy and Ibuprofen every night. I have been doing this lately and it seems to help with both his allergies and his 2 yr molars coming in!!

Parker:

  • Infants gas relief-0.6 mL as needed for tummy ache
  • Children’s Allergy Relief- 1 tsp 1x a day at night
  • Delsym-3/4 tsp before bed only if coughing
  • Advil-1 tsp every 6 hrs

Thermometer-1 push turns it on, then press to middle of forehead and hold down button while scanning down to ear and then release

Here’s some tips on feeding the boys.

Austin:

  • Possible food allergy to fresh kiwi, kiwi that may be in a juice box is ok.
  • Loves eggs but you want to give infants gas relief after and as needed the rest of the day because it does give him a bad tummy ache without it.
  • Some of his favorites…hot dogs, cubed cheese, yogurt, blackberries, strawberries, bananas, yogurt raisins, dried fruit, mandarin oranges, dry cereal and cereal with milk, applesauce
  • Small green sippy is what he prefers his milk out of while the other one we use for water
  • Some of his dislikes…deli meat, not crazy about PB & J lately




Parker:

  • Some of his favorites…sandwich consisting of bread, mustard and cheddar cheese only (Although he may tell you he likes turkey he won’t eat it!), dry cereal and cereal with milk, yogurt, cinnamon bread, yogurt raisins, applesauce
  • Blue sippy is what he likes his milk out of while the other cup is for water
  • Some of his dislikes…eggs, hot dogs, mac n cheese, pizza, anything with melted cheese on it!, deli meat


I hope they prove me wrong and eat everything you put in front of them and more!!

So you have an idea about our days…

They usually wake up around 6:30 – 7:30 and want their milk first thing although Parker sometimes may tell you its too cold and I let it sit for awhile before he drinks it. Only Parker gets a vitamin (in a baggie) in the morning. Sometimes Austin asks for a yogurt first thing also but he clearly can tell you what he wants!!

I usually put them down for a nap after lunch. Austin will most certainly need a nap but Parker has been trying to fight his but needs it usually. They nap anywhere between 1 ½ -3 ½ hrs depending on how much you wear them out! Parker needs a diaper at nap. One of the polka dot diapers is fine. After nap they sometimes ask for milk also.

At bath time and any other time there is water, Austin needs ear plugs in both ears. They are very easy to press in and he usually will keep them in. The same pair can be reused. At bedtime, Parker loves a book or 2 or 3 read to him and both like you to pray at bed time. Both have a night time diaper they wear. Austin’s is Winnie The Pooh and Parker’s are white with a bear on them. I wouldn’t put Parker’s diaper on him until he has used the restroom and you are putting him in bed because he gets lazy and will pee in it rather than using the potty! Parker likes to sleep with his Cat In the Hat and Austin his dog-dog. Both can have more milk at bed time.

Do what ever works for yall. I just wanted to give you an idea of what we do in case they are trying to tell you something and you don’t quite understand them. I don’t care if they have juice but be prepared for Parker to either go to the bathroom a lot after or wet his pants, that’s why we usually only do them for special things!! They will definitely drink them if you have them though.

TV: They like Nick Jr, Sprout, KERA and Disney Jr but I don’t let them watch all the shows…their favorites are Mickey Mouse, Jake and The Neverland Pirates, Bubble Guppies, Dora, Umizoomi, Cat In the Hat…you can always ask Parker if he likes and it and he will tell you. The one show they can not watch is Spongebob. If all else fails, I will send some movies for them!!

Dog-dog and Cat I try and keep inside especially dog-dog because of Austin’s allergies.
