At the playground



Weeeeeee!!!!!!



This morning I took the kids to the park. It is such a nice day here I thught we should get out a little. Plus my time at home is coming to an end, so I should make the best of it. I go back to work May 18th.










Sarah apperantly has 2 new pets. She has two dogs, Joseph and Alea. She says they are like Marley in "Marley and Me." So this morning when we went to the park we had to bring the dogs with us. She tied them to the stroller and when they had to go potty she let them off and even picked up after them! And when we got to the park she threw the bags in the trash. She has such an imagination!

6 weeks


Sarah feeding Vanessa

Time sure does fly! The twins are 6 weeks old and they are doing great, except for the sleeping part. I guess they aren't doing terrible, but during the day they can go about 4 hours without being fed. But at night they go about 2-3 hours! UGH! At least for the weekend my aunt Donna(Sarah's Nanny) and uncle Randy will be here. They had twins about 24 years ago, so they know what it is like. So while they are here they said they would do the night shift for me. I am so excited because I am so tired!
Last night Vanessa woke up at 3:15 am. I got her changed and made a bottle, then we went in to my room, turned on VH1, and guess what was on? New Kids on the Block! It was a show all about them! I was in heaven! Then as I was feeding Vanessa she gave me her first real smile! It was so big and so cute! Just melted my heart!
Sarah is doing good. We had a re-check appt. at the dr. yesterday for her ear infection. She is all clear. Then we went over to Uncle Ted's (Unc/Best Friend) and Heather Boss's (Heath) house. Sarah loves seeing her Best Friend! They played marbles and she helped him water his flowers. Heather and I sat inside and talked and fed babies. Aunt Heather is getting very good at feeding the babies. Maybe next time I can get her to change a diaper!

1 Month Physical

On Thursday I took the twins in for their check-up. They are now 5 weeks. Everything looks great! They are gaining weight and following the curve. Vanessa is 6 pounds 13 ounces and Nicholas is 8 pounds 4 ounces. They are eating very well. They both take 4 ounces of formula every 3 to 4 hours. Everything else on them looks good.

Sarah continues to love school. Everyday she asks if she is going to school. Her class is hatching chicks. Last week she said the chicks chirped in the shell and in 4 days they will be here. SO fun!
