Little Monkies

Well they have done it. They have learned how to climb out of their cribs. I walked in to get them this morning and they were running around their room. I heard no thuds and no cries so they must have gotten out gracefully. However next time we may not be as lucky. Dave and I are not ready to put them in toddler beds and I don't think they are ready for them either so the only other option is a crib tent. I had never even heard of these prior to becoming a mom to multiples. There are many other MOM's who have these or have used these in the past. It is an actually tent that goes over the crib so that kids can not climb out. I love that the boys are exploring but I think we will keep climbing to downstairs and at gyms so we can be safe. We ordered them and they will be here within a couple days, so hoefully we can make it to that point without any broken bones. Wish us luck!!!

All went well

The boys did very well for surgery. The Dr. put tubes in both ears of both boys and did it all in 3 minutes per child. It was fast. Revcovery took a little longer though, like all day. Jared woke up very cranky, but who wouldn't after being knocked out. Joshua slept a little longer but he was still a little cranky. Both boys cried the whole way home from DuPont, about a 30 minute drive, but then slept for 3 hours once we got home. They woke up and for the most part were back to their old sleves. So far so good.
We have light in our living room, which is great since before we always ended up playing in the dark at night or by the light from the dining room. Uncle Allen finished up that room today and is almost done our family room. YEAH!!!
We took the boys to have their 2 year old pictures taken this week. We started out good and then Jared lost it. He would not smile or stay put. Joshua is a ham and kept smiling to get more picture of himself to see on the screen. We did get a good one of them together with the #2 so it is ok. I will post them when I get them. Bye bye for now.
