11 weeks!

How does time keep racing, racing, racing away??? Are we going to go through our entire lives thinking that? I think so....

Anyyyyyyway.....the past 11 weeks have been the most exciting, tiring, surprising, amazing, shocking, loving weeks I've had to date. There is so much to anticipate and you think you know what to expect when you're expecting(ha!), but then it happens...the babies are born and it's just a bucket of whoas! ahhhs! huhs??? ohhh yeahs! and i'm tireds!!! Craziness and bliss...happy tears and sad tears and frustrated tears!

Last night I went on a "date" with Joshy. I kind of hate when people say "date night," but there it is...we had a date night. We went to Mexican and then I talked Josh into going to Barnaby's just for a brownie and coffee. It was worth it, just to be back in the old neighborhood. I love the old neighborhood, but when i saw the bum in the wheel chair riding along West Gray towards Stanford, i realized that Meyerland was the right move. No bums...just Jews...and friends of Jews. Did everyone here that Nicole and Anthony are shopping Meyerland....i hearrrrrrrd that!

Now some second month and a half highlights....

We had a baby naming and that was just the most real good feel good day. Bright sunlight shining in on 5319 Yarwell. It was blissful and now my baby girls can live their lives like the amazing men and women they are named for. I was thinking today that Peggy and Ida probably are the two most amazing girls I ever knew and I'm a little bit jealous that the girls get to carry on their legacy and then I realized that we can all live life like they did....truly 100% to the happiest and fullest all the time!


The girls are both laughing and talking...especially to their two best friends the butterflies that hang at the top of the music playing/light show/ play mat that they spend many hours under each day!


We had Mothers Day and my birthday all in one! What a low key organically great day!


The girls now fit in the BOB stroller which soooooooooooo easily puts the double snap n go to shame. I mean...people swear by the single snap n go, but the double is just awkward and I'll be happy when they day comes that the girls fit in a light weight double umbrella stroller, but for now, they can just enjoy their "chariot" rides in the BOB.

We had our first road trip and it was great! Other than one 15 minute traumatic moment in the parking lot of a McDonald's, it was so easy breezy and we're already planning the next trip.


They are still sleeping in those nap nannies.....BEST BABY PARAPHANALIA...BEST! They are not, however, sleeping through the night. We're getting close though and I plan on reporting that night long sleeping has begun in the third month report!

Other than a few more pics...that's all for now!
