Week Four

(11/1) Oh my gosh, how is it November already? And we're going on week four?  Really?

Both boys are starting to have longer awake periods, and are starting to coo a little bit.  Love it! I am also loving the cheeks and double chins that are starting to develop.  J's especially so.  J is solid ~ he has good head control and is really starting to chunk up.  D is still working the lean look, but I'm seeing the beginnings of a double chin!

We had the day to ourselves since big brother was off playing at Sarah & Jordan's.  We did a whole lot of nothing and it was glorious (thank you, Sarah!) Rob dropped by to visit in the evening to play paparazzi and provide some adult conversation.  Thanks for dinner too!  We'll be busting into that tonight!

(11/2) I picked up my photo order today and got pictures of the newbies up while they slept.  We ventured out to the library today.  Getting all 3 boys strapped in takes longer than the drive to the library itself.  The librarians were very cute though ~ they were hopeful that I had 'returns.'

Just for Rob, "Never mess with a Sicilian when death is on the line!"

(11/3) Today has been a day of sporadic non-napping.  I put the boys down and made a run to the vet's for kitty food, and came home to two wide-awake boys.  I tried putting them down again and went out for a run while C rode his bike.  The weather was just too perfect and I've been itching to get outside!  The run was great until the last mile when big brother decided to bike all the way back to the car and not stop once I was out of sight. Not quite the ease-back-into-training run I was looking for. 

I managed to scarf down some lunch and then the boys were up again. Dad reports that they were up while we were gone too.  Sorry, Dad.

(11/4) The boys all slept late today and we didn't really get up and going til around 9a today.  The time change will probably screw that up, but it was nice while it lasted.

We visited Sarah today for lunch and Nana brought over red cups (Starbucks)!  The eggnog latte was delish!  (My fave!)

After lunch, Sarah and I chatted while the boys sawed logs.  They were awake for a few minutes during lunch and were out for the rest of the afternoon. I wonder what this means for sleeping tonight...

C got to go play at Nana's for the afternoon, which he adores.  Love it when he comes home all played-out.

Mad baby is mad.

(11/5) Nanan watched the boys again while I took big brother to hockey.  They were awake for a little bit after we got back and then took a nice, long nap.  I may have also taken advantage of a quiet house and crashed myself.  Thankfully big bro was engrossed in watching Tron yet again.

Hee, Auntie Bridgette and Uncle Mat sent the boys cute Thing 1 & 2 hats and booties. So funny!  Next time I get them out of jammies, I'll dress 'em up.

(11/6) We're guessing D's eyes will stay blue, and J's may swing brown. Though C's hair was as dark as J's at first and then he lost it, and it came back in blond. 

Yay for lazy Sundays at home!  Gives me a chance to play mamarazzi!

Both boys were really fussy for naps today and at bedtime.  I think I'll hold off on eating broccoli again for a while.

(11/7) Happy Monday!  I think we'll get out to visit Granddad today while the big boys go skating.

Visit with Granddad
