Life With Twins – Week 34

Happy New Year everyone!

Let’s talk about our exciting New Years Eva celebration with the twins. Are you ready? Bryan and I worked, and then picked the babies up from day care. After that we came home, played a bit, ate dinner and put the babies to bed at 7:30.

I fell asleep on the couch at 9.

I snoozed from 9 until 11:40. I sat up and we turned the channel to watch the ball drop, listened to Anderson Cooper and Kathy Lee Griffin for 20 SUPER ANNOYING minutes, said Happy New Year, and then made bedtime official.

Welcome to lifestyles of the really boring and lame. 🙂

The babies seemed to enjoy the extra day at home with us, though. I unfortunately did not get to ring in new year with a run as I am still sidelined. *sigh*. We spent the day hanging out and then walked around Target, where we proceeded to get several comments about what a handful we have.

Nothing super exciting to share this week, baby wise. Miles is perfecting the pick up and feed myself puffs while Abby masters the “pick up and wave my hands around excitedly but don’t actually feed myself any”. I’m starting to try to incorporate some baby sign into mealtimes because even though they aren’t talking yet they are definitely communicating when I am not feeding them fast enough. Abby cries, Miles goes AAHH! No one is crawling yet but they are still kinda spinning around in circles with the occasional knee lift, arm stretch and grunt. They try a few more foods this week like well cooked carrots and peas,  a couple mac and cheese noodles and onion dip (that would be my husband).

I go for a consult for LASIK surgery and am told I am a great candidate! BUT, they won’t do the surgery until two months after I’ve finished breastfeeding because the hormones can make your prescription change. Bummer, but practical.

Pictures, please, you say?

• Miles takes a ride in the laundry basket

Beep beep! Get outta my way!

• He tries out some new clothes (it was dad this time, not me!)

Daddy, I don’t want to be a ballerina!

• That he stole from Abby

That was MY tutu!

• We visit my running buddy Lynnsey, who finds out just how hard it is to get a picture with these two 🙂

Smile? I thought you said cry.

• Miles swears he won’t grow up to be a thug

I will be a music geek I promise!

• Abby has a nap with daddy

Zzzzzzz

• We show off baby diaper butt during nakie baby Sunday

Whats cuter than baby diaper butt? TWO baby diaper butts!

• Finally, Miles gets bonked in the head with a ball and finds it hilarious. Hilarious enough for a video….
