Daily Funny
Short, but hilarious.
After the afternoon meal, Andy was sitting up in the Boppy (it was resting against the couch arm). Will was sitting on my lap facing Andy. Will was looking around the room, not really focusing on anything. Poor Andy would do a little 1/2 smile every time Will looked at him. I could [...]
New Photo Monday
Here we are with yet another installment of photos. Included this time around are new toys, preppy polo shirts and bathtime.

Twitterpated
We’ve both been dipping our toes into the Twitter pool, so I’ve stuck up a widget in the sidebar that displays our tweets. If we get bored of it, I’ll remove it. (=
FYI, I used Yahoo Pipes to combine the separate RSS feeds into a single one for display here.
Swedish Meatballs
I struggle with what to do with the boys between their afternoon and evening feedings (roughly 3 pm and 6:15 pm). They need a small catnap, but they won’t do it in their cribs. The bouncy seats have lost all of their appeal, so sleep is a no go there. I’ve been trying to use [...]
Splish Splash
One of the more annoying things about bathtime, well, the only annoying thing really, is figuring out what to do with the other one not being bathed. Nothing really holds their attention long enough, and even Baby Einstein isn’t always enough of a draw. Cranky babies are not easily entertained.
So, today, I tried to bathe [...]
Boogeyman
Apparently we’re raising the sort of boys who relish in horror movies and haunted houses. Their favorite game is something I call (because I’m so clever and witty) “I’m Coming To Get You!”
It involves them laying on their play mat, or on a blanket, and me standing over them. As I bend down, getting closer [...]
Cold Turkey
The boys are no longer being swaddled (except in dire circumstances, like a major freakout) as of this morning. Yesterday and today, I’ve found them magically out of the Miracle Blankets, and they’re basically wrapped around their necks. Kind of scary. So executive decision, no swaddles for sleeping.
They seem to be ok, but not totally [...]
More Photos!
We may be slackers, but all is forgiven, because here are 24 new photos! Drop us a comment to let us know you’ve seen them so we know we don’t have to send out emails anymore…

10 Pounds
No, not the name of a new Will Smith movie. That’s how much the boys have each grown (more or less) since they were born. We had our four month well-baby visit today (um, yeah, bad mom made the appointment a week and a half late. Oops), and the boys are following their growth curve [...]
Mission Accomplished
They slept apart, and apparently either didn’t notice or didn’t care. Andy was again sideways in his crib. That kid is a mover and a shaker.
Update, 10:10 am: I was trying to quiet them back down to sleep after ANOTHER 45 minute nap this morning. I left the room for less than 5 minutes [...]
