Twins

Trip Summary

Last Friday Brad and I took the boys on their seventh plane flight as we traveled to California to visit his family. The boys were so wound up at the airport and when we first got onto the plane, it was not a pleasant experience. It was stressful trying to keep up with […]


Hammock Babies

Despite being completely helpless in a hammock, Forest still manages to look up to something.


Kisses

Logan’s been really into giving kisses lately.  He realized a few weeks back to close his mouth for kisses and kinda does a pucker.  This morning he woke up about an hour before Forest and I brought him to our room.  He laid between Brad and I rolling back and forth, reaching out and testing […]


A First

This is the first time that I asked the boys to pose for a picture together. And they actually did it!


Reverse Rant

This morning I tried to go to the gym for the first time in a week but the day care was full.  So I decided to take the boys to our neighborhood park, which is still driving distance from our house, but a lot of fun.  There were three other mothers there with children around […]

I was at the park […]


Leading the Charge

The most interesting thing happened on Friday. Logan decided not to take an afternoon nap. And did great! He has pushed my “one nap plan” ahead by several weeks all on his own. I guess the couple weeks of a short morning nap helped him realize he was ready. Then […]


Communication

The boys are working wonders with sign language! And as I mentioned last week, I’m pretty amazed since it’s been many months since we did it diligently. They get the signs a bit confused sometimes, but Forest understands the sign for milk well enough to use it at the fridge when he just […]


You Know that You’re a Mom of Twins When…

You know you’re the mom of twins under two years old when going to the dentist to have 4 cavities filled puts you to sleep. Seriously, I dozed off for a few moments during a short break in the process. Not sure if the dental assistant realized it or not but she woke […]
