Finally!

After 1 year and 10 months...the boys are finally on the growth chart for their weight!! This morning, Addison weighed 21lbs. 15oz. and Riley weighed 20lbs. 12oz. Addison is in the 2nd percentile and Riley is in the 1st percentile!! Never before have my boys been "on the chart" for their weight or height. They are both 29". They are both proportionate for their sizes though. Addison was in the 76th percentile for his weight to height and Riley was in the 43rd. They're slowly coming along...chipping away and catching up. It could be all of the happy meals they've been eating lately. Yeah, they're not good for them but I'll happily give them the calories any way that they will take them.
I had a fundraising night at my local Chick-fil-a last week to benefit my March for Babies team. Between the two of them, they polished off 12 chicken nuggets plus a few fries. And, the most awesome part is that team Macomber Miracles raised $165 in just 4 hours!! Last night, was "McTeacher Night" at our local McDonald's to benefit Skylar's school so we loaded up the kids and took them there for dinner. They shared a happy meal. Addison was having no part of his broken up fries. He only wanted them whole. They both drank from a straw for the first time too! They've understood the concept for a while but hadn't actually been able to get anything through the straw.
In other news, Riley was referred to a pulminologist and we were able to go see him last week. Riley has been having horrible problems when he gets sick and he ends up on a ton of meds to help him breathe. He's now on only pulmicort, once a day, for 2 months straight. Pulmicort only works on the lining of the lungs so it will give his lungs a chance to heal and have a break. We go back in September to see how he's doing.
I've been so busy with the March for Babies. Our walk is only 4 days away and as a team, we've kicked butt! I have 5 other people walking on my team this year. I've sold tickets to our local hockey and baseball teams home games, hosted a fundraiser at Chick-fil-a, and have practically begged my friends and family for donations. Here's my last plea for donations. I'm only $135 away from reaching my goal. You can donate any amount by clicking on the purple March for Babies box in the upper right hand corner of my blog.
