Gratuitous Baby Pics

For those of my readers that love pics of the boys (hi Nan!) here is your payoff. We got to take this pics one day after we took the boys swimming, so they had their eyes open for a change. I really love how they turned out.

By the way, the shout out is to my Nana Smith. She’s a great grand-mom to three now (all mine bwaha ha ha). I did get your card and the two blankets your friend made. I promise to send her a thank you card straight away. We’re working on a day that we can come up to visit for the day to see you. I have to do the same for Poppy too!

Things are so hectic with the boys and I go back to work next Tuesday. I took the boys to work today for their one and probably only visit when they are babies. I’m going to be so busy when I get back to work. But we were joking at work that I’m happy to come back to work so I can relax! They definitely are not sleeping through the night, but who can be upset about that when it’s these adorable faces that wake you up? So I’m extremely sleep deprived (coffee is my favorite new food group!) but so so happy!!! My family is complete now. Fifteen years of trying to make babies and I have the best three children in the world (to me)!

Liam (close up - see more blue eyes?)

My little brick wall (remember me when you have season tix to the football team you are on!)

Hi Heather

Thanks for all your comments on my blog. I haven't replied because I see you haven't ticked the email box in your blogger profile. It will make it really easy to have a conversation :)

When you said the schedule only kicks in at 3 months, did you mean 3 months from the twins birth, or 3 months from their due date?

I clicked over from Leigh's blog and just thought I would say hello to a fellow mom to new twins! Your boys are adorable, and yes, he looks like a brick wall! : ) (Oh, and I felt the same way when I went back to work...it's definitely the downtime during my day!!!)

These are such adorable pictures! I'm now inspired to go take about 10,000 more of my little one. Cannot get enough.

And a huge congratulations on achieving the family you've wanted. Like you, I will never take for granted what a gift that is.

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...
