A Few Weekend Photos

A Few Weekend Photos

By on January 11, 2009 in Photo Post, Text Post with 0 Comments

We did absolutely nothing this weekend, except stay inside. Not just because we were exhausted from the week, but it was still snowing and the roads were in bad shape. All the more reason to stay in and be lazy (or at least as lazy as you can be with two boys running around).  There are more […]

To say it was a busy day would be an understatement. If it were not for Toni suggesting that I take some photos of the cake before it was cut there’s a good chance I would not have taken any photos at all. We ended up having around 30-40 people throughout the day and for […]

And then God said, “Let there be two”… Just one short minute later (see previous post) there you were – Screaming and yelling like you wanted to start a fight with somebody, anybody. Even the nurses said “We’ve got a feisty one here”. After several minutes, you were still screaming. You just seemed to want […]

I remember it so clearly.. You were the first one the doctor pulled out and the moment I looked at you I knew you were my son. You looked so much like me even from that first moment it was hard to believe. It was like a mini-me. Although you cried, you were not nearly […]

We were about to leave the holiday festivities at Trina’s last night, and the boys insisted that they get a photo with Jeri Ann. Then little Timmy walked by and said he wanted in on the action too, so he jumped into the picture. You can find the rest of the photos on SmugMug.

What does it mean to have twins? Next week they will be a full year old, and I thought it might be a good time to reflect on the year. Here is a brief look back at the last year and some of the things that have changed in our lives. While everybody tells you […]

Watching Baby Einstein Video

Watching Baby Einstein Video

  There is nothing that gets the boys attention faster and calms them down more then putting on a Baby Einstein Video. They are not only very focused, but they laugh and smile at times while watching as well.  And Max had his glasses adjusted so that they stay on better, so we’re back to […]

Four, Better then Two

Four, Better then Two

Today was a special day for Max. Today was his first of many days of wearing glasses.  Unfortunately for us, he has a different idea. Getting him to wear the glasses is going to be a struggle, and after only an hour we came to the conclusion that the frames are probably not the right ones […]

Max Eye Update

Max Eye Update

On Monday I took Max to see the pediatric eye specialist to verify that he needs some help. The visit was a long one for him (over 2.5 hours) but overall he did very well and didn’t cry too much until the end when he was getting fitted with glasses. But even then he took […]
