Hey Everyone,
It has been a long time since I have updated the blog and I have to apologize. It has been a little crazy since all the help left, and I have rare opportunities where I can do something for myself. Usually that time involves sleep, or eating, or any other basic necessity that I can't do when I have 2 babies hanging off of me.
The boys are doing great. They have settled into a great nap schedule, and only need 1 overnight feeding. They are sleeping for 6 hour stretches at night without needing to be fed. There is a light at the end of the tunnel!!
This year for Halloween, we stayed at home, and put costumes on the babies. Now, we had to do this fast because you all know how much kids love scratchy polyester costumes. Needless to day we slapped those costumes on, took a few pics, and then ended the torture.
Our theme was "Take me out to the Ballgame". I found a hotdog and peanut costume that would fit infants and went with that. This was after hours of searching the internet, and a run in with backordered costumes....fun fun. No wonder holidays are so much more fun for kids.
It was a fun Halloween, even though we only got like 15 trick or treaters. It is unfortunate, since I practically bought the entire candy aisle at Albertsons. I may begin to regain my pregnancy weight since we have so much left over.
Here are some recent new developments-
- Alex loves to look at the fish mobile above the swing, He talks to them.
-Jackson loves to stick his tongue out at you and wants you to do it back to him. He then laughs and laughs.
-They both have begun to suck their thumbs, when it stays in their mouths. Their hand eye coordination still needs work.
-They love being read to and I do it all the time. Of course the funnier the voice the better the reaction. If a stranger were to hear me, they would think I was a freak.
- They now love their baths. They both splash and kick all the time. Mom leaves the bathroom soaked. I may invest in a wetsuit soon.
- They have begun to move like they are rolling over. This should happen VERY soon. Then it is game on- LOG ROLL through the house!
I am posting a few pics now of everything that has gone on in the last few days....I will try to be better about updating. :)
