Play Ground Pics

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.

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"

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!


Nate playing with teeth molds

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.

Picture Update

Well we don't have time to give you a full update right now, but here are a few pictures to show you what we have been up to. Mommy will upload all of them onto webshots later next week after we get home and go to our doctors appointments. We will be home late tomorrow night and have our first dentist appointment Monday morning. Don't know what that is... but it sounds exciting. Tomorrow we are going to Grandma and Grandpap's church then off to Great Aunt Helen's house for dinner with G/G, M/D, Great Aunt Helen and Great Uncle Bill, Aunt Heidi and Dave and Great Uncle Andy.
Enjoy the photos
