August 14th-20th

(8/14)  Work day for Dad & me, and Sarah had the kiddos.  I think the twins are trying to drop down to just one nap, and they were all kinds of cranky today.  And hungry.  Apparently, I did not pack enough food as they blew through everything I sent, and when it came time for dinner, I could not feed them fast enough. 


(8/15) Granddad asked if I took the twins to restaurants.  I said not usually, but it should be just fine.  We met up with Granddad, Grandma, Uncle Jake, Amber, & Audrey at a Mexican restaurant.  The boys did awesome!  They ate, and ate, and ate!  They had everyone's rice, all my beans, chips, avocado, and made the biggest mess. They were happy for our marathon dinner (~2 hours) and we even received a lovely compliment for having the best behaved kids.


(8/16) The twinsies had their day with their dad and got to visit with Oma & Opa as they were passing through. I love that all the grands are fairly close and can visit from time to time!


(8/17)  Nanan watched the little guys today while we worked. C is off camping with Sarah and co for the weekend. I made veggie pasta tonight, and the twins wore more pasta than they ate, but they really worked hard at eating it! 


(8/18) Nanan stayed over last night so she could watch the twins while I was off running and then lunching with running buddies. The twins were cranky this afternoon, so I put everyone to bed (including myself) for an hour and then life was much better.


(8/19) Wow!  I did not hear a peep from the twins until almost 8am!  Dad made us pancakes this morning (yum!) and then we headed off to grocery shop.  We took the littles to the pet store where they got to look at the birdies and help us pick out some new fish and aquatic plants.  Our fish tank badly needed to be re-stocked! Then home for lunch and a nap. Such a rough life.

I packed up all the 9 month clothes today.  Didn't I just take them out? 
 

(8/20) Happy Monday!  Work day for me and the kiddos are with their dad. 

I had helpers on my workout tonight.  D busted up laughing every time I did a crunch in his direction and J kept climbing on me ~ to add extra resistance, I'm sure.  They certainly are a welcome distraction.
