HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!

Happy birthday to our most favoritest Mommy in the world!

Our music class was fun. Daddy did take a couple pictures, but isnt very good at controlling us AND taking pictures.... but we will post what he got later this weekend. Mainly we played with a bunch of different instruments, and picked up other Mommies' keys and tried to open doors, oh and we danced around and had fun.

More later, we are at Nana's house right now so there is WAAAAY too much fun to be had!

Big Day Tomorrow!

We have had such a busy week. Yesterday we got up waaaay to early in Mommy's book and were fairly unhappy about it so Mommy got us dressed and we went to the mall playground again. It was less crowded and we had tons of fun. No pictures though this time. Then we took a nap and when we woke up Grandma had come to play with us while Mommy went to her baking class. This morning... after a fairly sleepless night.... Grandma took us for a walk and we played outside.

We are so excited about tomorrow. Everyone knows what tomorrow is, probably the most important day in the world. We have been waiting so long for this day and have done lots of planning and prep work. We know it doesn't need to be said... but just in case you have lived under a rock.... TOMORROW IS OUR FIRST MUSIC CLASS!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! We can't wait. Daddy is taking us by himself. Mommy will be sending the camera with him to get lots of pictures and videos.

What's that? Something else is happening tomorrow? Something else very important? Oh you thought we forgot... silly people.. of course we remembered that tomorrow is Mommy's Birthday! We even got Daddy to send her 18 roses from us (and him as well). How could we forget that?

This is how much we love our Mommy!

Dog Days of Summer

So yesterday we went to visit Nana and Grandad. On our way over we stopped by Aunt Katie and Uncle Ben's house to pick up Aunt Katie and say hi to Uncle Ben and their puppy Sasha . Then we hung out at N/G's house and Miss Jeanette also came over. We slept while the ladies went out to the pool and hung out. After we woke up we drove Aunt Katie back to her house and we got to play with Sasha again. We had so much fun running around their basement and letting Sasha lick our faces. She loved us! Hopefully we can have a playdate with her again soon!

After we dropped off Aunt Katie we came back and went into the pool with Nana and Grandad. We had tons of fun splashing and kicking... but the best part of the pool is buckling and unbuckling our life vests.

After we got back last night Mommy was cleaning up baby jail and Piccadilly put herself away right where she belongs... since she is our favorite toy and all!

Eye Doctor

Yesterday we had an eye doctor appointment and its fairly good news all around. Nate's eyes look great and he doesn't need to go see Dr. W. for 3 YEARS! He will be 5 years old the next time he goes to the eye doctor... well for a check up... since he will have to tag along to Alex's eye doctor appointments. Alex's lazy eye is looking great but he is going to stay on the drops for at least 3 more months, then he goes back in to get checked again. But Dr. W. loved how his eyes looked... so YAY!!!!!!!

More later... we have some playing to do!

videos

So we have a few videos from the past week of us being... well completely adorable and cute! Mommy wants us to tell you that we learned all of our "mad dance skills" from Daddy.

We almost forgot. Thursday Mommy took us to the mall to run around the playground there. We had way too much fun climbing on everything and seeing all the other kids running around as well.

Hey Everyone! Nothing really new to update you all on. Went to Nana and Grandad's this week (as usual) and Aunt Courtney brought Kerri over as well as her friend Miss Sara and her son Mason , who just turned a year old! and we all played in the pool and hung out.

We have an eye appointment on Monday afternoon and next Saturday we start our music class with Daddy. YAY!!!!!!

Farming and Food Fun!

First off... if you haven't heard. Daddy got his wisdom teeth taken out on Thursday, does that make him dumber? He is doing well, Grandma and Grandpap came down to help out Mommy take care of the three of us babies. Last night we were eating chicken nuggets and BBQ Sauce and Mommy got creative with our faces..... however we must have sensitive skin because after our baths, which was right after Mommy got creative, our faces were a little red... but it went down fairly quickly... so no worries.

Adorable Alex!

Grandma and Grandpap left super early this morning to head to the beach for a week... HAVE FUN!.... so we got up and Mommy and Daddy too us to Larriland Farms (www.pickyourown.com) to get some fresh vegetables. We also saw a goat and some llamas, we hadn't been since October of last year, but they promised we will visit a few more times before the end of the season this year.

Haircuts and visitors

So we had tons of fun yesterday. We went to Nana's House and ran around for a few minutes before we were loaded up in the car again and went to get haircuts with Miss Jane at Victoria's Station. We love getting our hair cut by her. Nate sat in the chair all by himself and did so well. Alex had to sit on Mommy's lap but didn't cry like he usually does, he wasn't HAPPY about getting his hair cut, but he was distracted with water bottles (the spray kind), books and magazines.

After our hair cuts Grandad got back from his boating trip with Great Uncle Bob so we hung out with them. Also Aunt Maureen stopped by to play for a little bit as well. We hadn't seen her in a good couple months! Mama even got Nate to say "Mo"

Us and Aunt Mo

Tonight Grandma and Grandpap came to visit as did Miss Ashley and her mommy Mrs. Link, Miss Ashley knitted us two awesome blankets (pictures later!) Grandma and Grandpap will be staying with us till Saturday... YAY!!!!!!!!! Ok bed time.

YAY CAFFEINE!

So Mommy came home with Starbucks and Alex couldn't get enough of it. His new drink of choice? Grande Skim No Whip Mocha with an extra shot of espresso!!!!! (don't worry he only had 2 or 3 small sips of the actual drink then Mommy pour her coffee into a cup and put a little water back in it and let Alex play with it!)

Mmmmmm Coffee!!!

Good to the last drop

The effects of caffeine on a 2 year old!

BIG update!

We have had such a busy week. Let's start with Sunday. We were still in Pittsburgh so we decided to go to Great Aunt Helen and Great Uncle Bill's house to celebrate Grandma and Uncle Bill's birthdays. We had tons of fun running literally around the house. We did sit still long enough to take some pictures with people.

Monday morning mommy had a dentist appointment and we got to tag along, we thought it was fun an all until it was our turn to get our teeth checked out. Miss Merrie didn't clean them, but we didn't enjoy her looking around either. We are going to have to make an appointment with a pediatric dentist though since Miss Merrie thinks they will be a better fit for us, since we are so young.

Mommy's turn!

Tuesday morning we went to our NICU follow up at St Agnes. Nate is pretty much right on track for a normal 2 year old. Alex is, not surprisingly, developing slower and is below average for a normal 2 year old. So he will be watched and get more extra help. Also he is going to see a specialist to check out his head cause it hasn't grown too much.

Wed we went to Nana's house! We had tons of fun, but we missed Grandad who went on a boating trip with Great Uncle Bob, but we will see both of them next week when we visit. YAY! Nana pulled out the little pool and we had fun splashing around in it... and climbing out and running away.
