Things Baby Boys Do

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

Just thought I’d throw out a quick note about what the guys are doing these days–you know, all their cute little tricks.
Gavin is:
-standing and cruising on furniture
-walking behind the little push toys
-clapping his hands (MIGHT be saying yay, not sure yet)
-saying: all done, more-more, Uh oh and boo (complete with hiding and peeking motions)
-still has [...]

Uh

We now begin a new category… Things I never wanted to hear my preschooler say:

A Belly Lament
by Me
On my post-twin body, I’ll be blunt.
It’s my belly that suffered the brunt
For it stretched out so wide with 2 babies inside
now it looks like a butt on the front.
Feel free to join in my limerick game– let me know if you write one, so I don’t miss [...]

The Pumpkin Patch

Monday, October 15th, 2007

This weekend we journeyed to the pumpkin patch for a little fall fun. The Grents went with us, as did 3/4’s of the Tanck family. A great time was had by all–so much that Lidia just couldn’t handle it anymore. By the time we got home, Lidia was a total mess. This year we went [...]

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

Way to go, Peanut [...]

Who Needs Sleep, Anyway?

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

Fair warning–this will be a whine/rant/complainy post.
Here is a snapshot of my night.
7:30pm– The boys start getting cranky and rubbing their eyes. Looks like time for bed. They’re wanting to nurse, so we did that and once they were done, I put them down for bed. This was about 7:45. Both boys disliked this option [...]

On My Own Again

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

So soon after returning from vacation, we took a ride to the local airport yesterday and dropped the hubby off. Work has called him to California, much to my dislike. Though things probably won’t be as difficult as they were while he was in the Philippines back in May, single parenting infants and a preschooler [...]
