Just a quick weekend update. It was not a fun one. Even though G/G came to visit and play with us, Nate had a diaper rash that went from bad to worse to a yeast infection... ouchie! But Daddy and Grandma called Great Aunt Helen (Mommy went to a bachelorette party for the weekend for Miss Katie) and she told them what to do and its looking much better. Sunday morning Grandma and Daddy then decided that we needed to try eggs for the first time.... bad idea... turns out we are allgeric to eggs. Alex broke out worse than Nate, Daddy called the Drs office and was told to give us Benedryl. That helped a lot.
Mommy came home and everything has been fine since than. We have our 15 month appointment tomorrow so expect a big update tomorrow night or Wed. morning.

What do you get when you mix yogurt and twins??
A big mess!!!! Mommy was trying to give us yogurt for the first time today... we really just wanted to play with it... however Nate thought it was delicious. He was trying to drink it. Mommy gave up and let us make a mess and play with it... She took some video but will have to post it later because she has a lot to do.

Big Update
So first and foremost. Our highlight this week was going back to the NICU where we spent 4 months hanging out. We visited our favorite nurses, Miss Celeste and Miss Kelly. We got there and neither of our nurses were in the NICU, Miss Kelly was getting lunch and Miss Celeste was helping another baby on a different floor. So we hung out with some of our other favorite nurses and waited. Finally Miss Kelly made it back and we got to climb all over her and play with her badge. We were there for about 40 minutes and no sign of Miss Celeste and we were getting hungry and tired. So we decided to head out and come back another day to visit with Miss Celeste. We were leaving and got to the elevator just as the doors were closing.. so we had to wait for it to come back. We were there a good couple minutes waiting.. but wouldn't you know it... Miss Celeste stepped off the elevator. So back into the NICU we went to spend a few minutes with all the nurses again. We had so much fun and Mommy took a few pictures of us.

We have been to a bunch of doctors this week. So we will do a brief recap.
Tuesday we went back to High Risk Follow Up at the hospital so they could see how far we have come since our NICU days. We got to play with things while the doctor, her assistant and 3 med students looked on. We got to play with blocks, cups, crayons (Which we immediately tried to eat... and they were immediately taken away). We showed them our awesome crawling skills and found things they were covering with cloth. Nate almost took out a med student. He slipped by the 6 adults in the room and pulled on a cord and a small fan came flying off a shelf and just barely missed a med student. Nate is developing like a normal 12 month old baby... which is what old we should have been if we hadn't decided to arrive early. Alex is a little bit behind.. but no one seems worried... because its normal for twins to develop differently.
Wed. Alex got his 3rd new helmet. We don't know how long he will have to wear it... it looks just like his other 2 helmets.
We just got back from seeing Dr. Voit who is our surgeon. We had surgery in January to repair our hyperspasia and cordees. Alex's cordee is all better but he still has a hole under his man parts and that is apparently where most of his pee-pee comes out from... neat trick... but not good.. and Nate's cordee needs just a little fine tuning to make it straighter. So we both are going back in for surgery on our man parts on Wed. Sept 17. We really have no idea what that means because we weren't really paying attention we were flirting with the Dr's Assistant... she was funny.
We are exhausted.. so its time for our nap. Mommy is taking us on errand runs when we get up and then Grandma and Grandpap are coming in for the weekend. YAY!!!!!!!

4th of July update
Well we finally have pictures of our new bathroom.. including the lion trashcan and elephant tissue holder than was back ordered online... but Mommy found it at target yesterday.. so she bought them and cancelled her order. YAY!!! our bathroom is complete!!!! (see pictures below).
We had a fun 4th of July. We went to M/D's new gym they joined last week and for the first time got left in a day care setting. They did warn the first lady taking care of us that we like to bite and she took note... but apparently forgot to tell the other lady who came and played with us... Alex bit her shoulder. Nate also attempted to take a binky from another baby there... and when the lady asked Daddy if we had binkys we liked Daddy said that it wasnt a binky he wanted... he just wants what every one else has. We had fun and then we went to Nana's and Grandad's for lunch. We slept through half of it and headed home to get ready for our BBQ on Saturday.
Saturday a few of our friends came over and played with us. It's amazing how many big people can fit into our baby jail. There was at least 3 in there with us at a time. We were the center of attention.... like anyone doubted we would be.... not many pictures were taken.... Mommy was too busy not paying attention to us and hanging out with other people when they weren't paying attention to us (the nerve) but she did take one really cute picture of Nate wearing Jacob's hat.
yesterday we just played all day and had a normal day. Today we have P/T with Miss Sheryl and then we have to give blood for some tests. We have lots of doctors appointments in the next two week. Enjoy the photos!

New Tricks
So We have a couple new tricks this week. The biggest and best one so far is that Alex figured out how to stand up on his own... well pulling himself up. He hasn't quite figured out how to take steps forward so he stands straight up.. but for just figuring it out yesterday thats not bad.
Nate also has a new trick. Today he figured out how to play basketball. See the video below... NBA here we come!
Also as promised here is (FINALLY!) the video from us eating out.
We will have pictures of our new bathroom up soon... Daddy still hasn't hung the medicine cabinet yet!

P/T Update
We promise pictures of our newly painted bathroom are coming. M/D are taking their sweet time putting it back together. They will be posted as soon as we can get them.
In other news Today our favorite P/Ter came and worked with us. We made a lot of progress. Nate decided he needed to show off and stood up for over 30 seconds at a time without hanging on to anything. Alex is getting better about sitting up from the laying down position, he just doesn't understand why he needs to do that if he is perfectly comfortable playing on his tummy, back and knees. He is however getting much better at really crawling.
Alex threw up on Mommy today. So they both had to shower and get a fresh change of clothes.. than Mommy had to do the floors in our play area and some of our toys. But he felt much better... he just ate a little too much.
That's about all for now. Time to go do some more playing!

Big Day Today! Part 2
So we had a "first" moment. Mommy and Daddy took us out to dinner!!!!! We went to Carrabba's Italian Restraunt. We were on our best behavor and LOVED looking around at everyone. We got to sit right up at the table and eat puffs and bang on the table while M/D ate their food... which looked yummy.. but we didn't get to try any. Mommy took pictures and a video... but she is having trouble uploading it so it will have to be posted on our blog when she figures it out. The waitress said we were the best babies she has served, and we didn't even make much of a mess. Nate got excited and babbled loudly, Alex just sat there smiling. M/D said they would take us out to dinner again because we were so well behaved! YAY!!!! but next time they might not be so lucky!!

Big Day Today! Part 1
This is going to be a 2 part post. The first part is all about the beginning part of our day with some pictures and then the second part will be in the next post.
So today started like any other day. We woke up, ate, played and napped. After our morning nap Mommy started to take our bathroom apart. She even took off wall fixtures like the towel rack and the cabinet. Mommy has done some pretty crazy stuff... but this takes the cake! Then she put blue tape all over the bathroom. Then she made the walls change color just by touching the walls with this big rolling toy thing. We will post pictures of what she did once she puts the bathroom back together.
However while Mommy was working her magic in the bathroom Daddy took some pictures of us. We didn't take our afternoon naps today we were so excited about what Mommy was doing to our bathroom.

Guess what we did today......
Well before we get to the funny part... today was hot so we didn't do much. However Mommy is going to be painting our bathroom this weekend so she brought us to Home Depot to look at colors.
It started to pour and we started to get fussy so Mommy joined us in Baby Jail and we both decided we needed to attack her. Nate tried climibing up her back and Alex tried going up her front. Mommy finally surrendered to our attacks and laid down. She grabbed Nate first and started making him fly on her knees. While Mommy was destracted with Nate, Alex came up and attacked her face. He had his mouth wide open and tried to bite whatever he could get, he didn't get a bite in.. but Mommy's face was covered in his saliva. Mommy put her guard up and continued playing with us keeping an especially close eye on Alex. About15 minutes later of rough housing with us Mommy apparently had put her guard down and while she was paying attention to Nate... who was infatuated with her belly, Alex climbed on to Mommy and bite her chin. Alex thought it was hilarious but Mommy apparently didn't think it was funny, so she strapped us into our high chairs and we got dinner... Bananas and Apples... yum... Alex ate about 10 good bites before deciding he didn't want to eat anymore, and Nate didn't eat very much. But we are both so tired, so now we are going to get ready for bed.
We have been thinking we may post all the old emails Mommy sent out when we were first born and during her pregnancy just so all of our history is at one spot, and you all can look back and see how we have grown. They would be back posted so as not to confuse you with old info.

Fun Day!
Yesterday was such a fun day. We did our usual morning routine, wake up, eat, play, eat, sleep. We woke up, got baths, and drove down to N/G's house. We always have fun there. Mommy took Alex to his helmet appointment, while N/G watched Nate. Alex got his photos taken for measurements for his new helmet. In case you haven't heard M/D decided to give Alex a 3rd helmet, with no guarentees it will do anything, but they have hopes since an O/T is going to come visit us soon that she will get Alex to eat and he will fatten up.
Later yesterday evening Miss. Maureen came over, she just had her birthday on Monday (Happy Belated Birthday Miss Maureen!) and she played with us, and had dinner with us, and we tried to eat her dessert (brownies and ice cream) but she was too fast for us. Even though we were dead tired we still ran around and played. Then Mommy packed up the car and before she could hit the beltway we were passed out in our car seats.
There is talk of going to the grocery store today with Mommy... which is always fun. We will post pictures of our play date with Miss Maureen when she emails them to our Mommy!

Weekend Update
So we spent the weekend with Daddy while Mommy was in NoVa for Miss Katie's bridal shower. We went for walks, to the grocery store and we played, we also picked G/G up in Baltimore from their cruise.
Miss Cheryl came this morning for P/T. She likes how Alex is doing better on his knees and he is getting the hang of crawling on all fours, but she really want to see him relax his legs and also sit up by himself. So she worked with Alex on a big rubber ball. She also is going to send her friend the O/T out to visit us and help us with our eating, since we have decided to be difficult about it.
Alex is also getting a 3rd helmet, M/D want to give it a go and see if it will improve his head a little bit more.
Nate is getting into trouble as usual.
That's all for now. We are exhausted... time for a nap!

Big News
So we woke up from our nap not too long ago. Nate was being fussy so Mommy changed his diaper, but Alex needed his bath and helmet cleaning so she put Nate in Alex's crib because Nate likes to play with the mobile music box (she and Daddy had to take the actual mobile away... its for the better... says them) so we were both hanging out in Alex's crib, Mommy had to run down to the laundry room for a towel and clean outfit. when she left Alex was on his hands and knees and Nate was standing up. When she came back up Alex was sitting!!!! Now we won't say how he did it because Mommy has never seen him get into the sitting position before and we don't want to spill the beans before she gets a chance to see it for herself. But Mommy was very excited!!
We are looking forward to this weekend. Mommy has to go to N/G's for Miss Katie's bridal shower so we get to spend the weekend with Daddy doing manly stuff. On Sunday we are picking G/G up from Baltimore after their 10 day cruise. Monday Ms. Cheryl is coming to play with us again.
We'll let you know how our man weekend goes on Monday after P/T

Happy Father's Day
Yesterday was Father's Day (hope all the daddies out there had a fabulous day) We started the weekend off hanging with Daddy while Mommy went to a baby shower for Miss Sara. Daddy gave us our baths and drove us down to N/G's house, were we had tons of fun waiting for Mommy to get there. We got to spend the evening with M/D, N/G, Pop-Pop, Aunt Courtney and Uncle Todd and their puppy Felix. Aunt Courtney's birthday is on Wed. so we celebrated her birthday as well as fathers day with cake and presents, no cake for us :(
Yesterday we got up and went to church and we had way too much energy. Mommy put Nate down on the pew and he turned around and started to flirt with the older couple sitting behind us. He reached up for the lady to pick him up, she asked Mommy's permission and Mommy said yes. Nate had too much fun, the guy also held him too. After church the couple came up and said that we made their Father's Day, I guess their grandkids don't live near by. After church we hang out in the social hall and everyone said how big we have gotten and how cute we are (yeah... we know). Nate crawled all around and especially liked the glass doors. Alex was tired so stayed close to Daddy.
We spent a good part of the afternoon sleeping because we didn't get our morning nap in. But after we woke up we played with Mommy and Daddy and got our baths. While Daddy's was grilling dinner we got to go outside and visit with Miss Erika and Mr Michael and their twins Sofie and Jacob.
We don't have too much going on this week. Mommy says we are going to do errands after our nap today. Oh and we got new car seats!!! We are now in our big boy car seats. Daddy installed them on Saturday. Alex was sleeping while Daddy was playing with them so Nate got to help Daddy adjust the straps. Look at what a big boy he looks like!

Happy Friday the 13th
Yesterday was fun. We slept in, since we didn't nap at all on Wed. Mommy made a cake for Miss Sara's baby shower which is tomorrow. We behaved ourselves for the most part while she did that. However we were tired and didn't want to go to sleep. We got wind that Grandma and Grandpap were coming into town! Mommy tried so hard to get us to take a nap before they got here... but it was no use! We had tons of fun playing with G/G. Grandpap was trying to help Nate escape baby jail by letting him climb all over him giving Nate a boost higher so he could grab onto the changing table. We finally took a nap, but woke up to eat some dinner with everyone. We didn't stay up too much longer after that.
Nate was up this morning to see G/G off onto their 10 day cruise to celebrate their retirement, but Alex slept in, since he got up in the middle of the night. We had a pretty uneventful day today. However Alex has been a difficult eater recently, so M/D tried eating dinner with us, since Alex likes to eat at big family meals. He wasn't eating and Mommy pointed at him and he opened his mouth... silly Mommy put her finger in Alex's mouth and he bit down HARD! She let him play with her finger while cringing in pain.. but than Daddy got the idea to put the baby food on her finger and feed him that way. GENIUS! He ate off of Mommy's finger with no problem. She was even able to slide a couple spoonfuls in before he would close his mouth... but would open back up for the finger. Apparently he has something against spoons.
Oh well.. off to bed. Tomorrow we are going to N/G's house to celebrate Aunt Courtney's B-Day and Father's Day!

Happy Mother's Day
We know you are all probably like "What?!?!? Mother's Day was last month" We know that, but first thing in the morning it's really fun to confuse Mommy. So we know Mother's Day was last month and we sent Mommy a dozen pink roses (very sweet of us we know!) then yesterday we sent Mommy 2 dozen red roses. We signed our favorite Mommy up for 3 months of roses!! How fabulous are we?? So every second Wed. (May, June and July) Mommy is going to get flowers. She only has one more shipment coming, but the next time... like what happened yesterday. Mommy wont be home to receive the flowers. We were at Nana's and Grandad's all day and didn't get home till almost 10pm, Daddy had brought in the box of flowers (We always go ProFlowers, they are the best) but didn't set them up, so this morning Mommy was no quite awake and Daddy pointed out the box. Mommy was so confused.. she opened them and there was a card that said "Happy Mother's Day".. now she was even more confused. Daddy had to explain she was getting 3 months of roses. We aren't saying what kind of flowers are going to appear next month because Mommy doesn't know.
Alright lets get a real update going. So Alex had his helmet appointment, the technicians really aren't sure that a 3rd helmet will do much, but he has probably only one more adjustment left so on July 9th he should be getting his second helmet off. M/D don't know yet if they will do a 3rd helmet or not.
We didn't sleep yesterday, we usually take a morning nap shortly after waking up, but we knew we were going to N/G's house so we were really excited and didn't take a nap, but Mommy thought it would be ok because we would sleep the hour it takes to get to their house... but we didn't... ok well maybe for about 20-30 minutes, but we usually sleep for 2 hours! Then Alex slept a bit on his way back for his helmet appointment but Nate didn't sleep a wink... even though Grandad was running around with him and trying to waste his energy. Mommy went out with Miss Katie to look at her wedding dress and pick up dinner, and Nana went out to a girls night with some of her friends, so Grandad said he would watch us for a few hours. Since we hadn't napped all day Mommy told Grandad that we would probably pass out and be asleep the whole time... WRONG!!!!! Nate took a brief nap, but Alex didn't sleep at all. When Mommy and Miss Katie got back with dinner they sat in baby jail with us and we attacked them and tried to get their food, we eventually slowed down, and Mommy packed up our things and we headed home, Alex was asleep by the time we dropped Miss Katie off at her house and Nate was asleep by the time we hit the Dulles Toll Road. We woke up only to get a diaper change and a bottle when we got home and we actually slept in this morning. Alex woke up at 6:30 and Nate woke up at 7:30. Mommy is hoping for a day of naps to make up for yesterday... we will see.
Grandma and Grandpap are coming, so we may not sleep again today. They just retired and are going on a cruise. They leave tomorrow so they are stopping here for the day before they head off for 10 days.
Alright... Play time!!!!!

We didn't sleep yesterday, we usually take a morning nap shortly after waking up, but we knew we were going to N/G's house so we were really excited and didn't take a nap, but Mommy thought it would be ok because we would sleep the hour it takes to get to their house... but we didn't... ok well maybe for about 20-30 minutes, but we usually sleep for 2 hours! Then Alex slept a bit on his way back for his helmet appointment but Nate didn't sleep a wink... even though Grandad was running around with him and trying to waste his energy. Mommy went out with Miss Katie to look at her wedding dress and pick up dinner, and Nana went out to a girls night with some of her friends, so Grandad said he would watch us for a few hours. Since we hadn't napped all day Mommy told Grandad that we would probably pass out and be asleep the whole time... WRONG!!!!! Nate took a brief nap, but Alex didn't sleep at all. When Mommy and Miss Katie got back with dinner they sat in baby jail with us and we attacked them and tried to get their food, we eventually slowed down, and Mommy packed up our things and we headed home, Alex was asleep by the time we dropped Miss Katie off at her house and Nate was asleep by the time we hit the Dulles Toll Road. We woke up only to get a diaper change and a bottle when we got home and we actually slept in this morning. Alex woke up at 6:30 and Nate woke up at 7:30. Mommy is hoping for a day of naps to make up for yesterday... we will see.
Grandma and Grandpap are coming, so we may not sleep again today. They just retired and are going on a cruise. They leave tomorrow so they are stopping here for the day before they head off for 10 days.
Alright... Play time!!!!!
