Doctor appointment and Toy Chaos!

I was told that my pediatrician was leaving the base and I wanted to get one last appointment with her and get her recommendation on who we should start seeing and what we should do if anything about the kids little quirks - Jess and weight gain, Will and some sensory issues and speech and Logan and his speech.
I was especially grateful for the appointment after the weekend we had with Will's fever reaching 103.5! I was very lucky - Dave was able to get the day off since after the triplets appointment, I had an appointment for my knee and then Lucas and I had dental appointments. We met with the doctor at 10am. It turns out that the doctor is not leaving until much later this year! She is apparently having some surgery next month but is only going to be out of the office for 3 weeks.

We got some good news! Jessica has finally started to gain on her curve! She is still only at the 1% but getting closer to 2%! The pediasure and whole milk with carnation instant breakfast are working! Woohoo!! Jess is still having constipation issues and the doctor prescribed Miralax to help. I hope we get it under control. I want to start officially potty training her as she has been showing the most interest and has gone pee several times on the potty. She has no other issues right now, in fact she is doing very well with speech and fine motor skills. Her gross motor stuff is a little immature but not any concern at this point.

Logan is also benefiting from the extra calories and is growing like weed! He is in the 90% for height! His weight is only 25 lbs so she wants him to stay on the same regiment as Jess. As far as his speech, she really wants Birth to Three to focus on his speech, but she feels that he understands tons and will start to talk when he wants to!

Will is still sick! She took a long time listening to his chest and then ordered a nebulizer treatment. He sounded lots better afterwards, so she prescribed treatments for an upper respiratory infection for the next several days - I guess the fever this past weekend was really fighting off something! As far as his speech and sensory issues, she is not really concerned yet - no red flags - but we are to keep an eye on him and work with Birth to Three on a few things - speech being the biggest concern at this point.

All in all a very informative appointment! and more importantly I feel like I am actually doing something right for the kids!


I am so tired of the playroom chaos! The room starts out looking like this-

but ends up looking like this after only a few minutes! I want to figure out a better storage system. It seems whenever they are bored they go in there and take everything out! Any ideas?
