July 31st-August 6th

(7/31)  Nana, Sarah, Desy, and the boys all came over to day to twin sit.  D practiced saying "Denton" and what sounded like "Jamie" all night long.  Sarah said there was lots of conversation between the boys.


(8/1)  Happy Birthday to me!  We went to soccer with C and had Cheerios for snack.  We then went home, had lunch, and the boys took a nap.  Nanan came over to watch everybody so this mama could have some shopping time by herself.  Nanan fed the kiddos dinner and brought over some delicious cake for dessert.  We rounded out the evening by watching the Olympics.  


(8/2)  Dad said he and the boys had a great lazy day.  The boys took several long naps, probably because Mr. D was on sleep strike last night. I finally gave up and went to sleep downstairs at 1am.  J was wide awake at 5:30a when I got up for work, so I fed both boys, and put them back down.  J is getting quite accomplished at pulling up to a stand. Dad reports J is saying "HI!" now too.


(8/3) The kiddos were at Sarah's today. The line-up of babies at dinner cracked me up.  They all interact so well together.  I am hoping they will be as good of friends as C & Jor are. 



(8/4) Lovely day today! We left early for C's swim lesson and spent some time at the park. We played peek-a-boo during C's class - J is getting really good at this game and holds things over his head and gets all excited when I 'find' him.  He's pulling up on *everything* now and is starting to furniture cruise.  He gets stuck standing though, and will start fussing til I come rescue him.  He also knows areas he's not supposed to be in, and will giggle and make a bee-line for those off-limit areas every time I set him down. Goober. 


(8/5) The boys let us sleep until almost 8:30a.  Heaven!  I set up the air-conditioner in our room last night so we were quite comfortable.  The boys crashed early last night, so I was a little worried they might wake early too, but thankfully, no. 

We had a lovely walk to the park and Starbucks with Sarah & Co in the morning and then once the twins were down, we got to moving. We spent allll the rest of the day rearranging our house to create a room for the twins out of our old master, and a place for the two of us in our basement.  I love it! 


(8/6) Happy Monday!  The boys are with their dad today, and I am off to work.
