Happy 18 month birthday, babies!!!

My little twin monsters are 18 months old today.  They are crazy little people who like to run around with buckets on their heads, eat yogurt and Cheerios like it is going out of style, still not sleeping all night but can now walk and run and feed themselves. To celebrate, they get to go to the pediatrician for their 18 month check up.  We might go out for dinner with the grandparents later but we will have to see how the day goes.  I am also going to get my hair cut today….I am still not sure what I am going to do…..but not too short.

Mom and Grandma are on their way here….they are having the sewer pipe replaced at their house and would be stuck in a house all day with no water (or no ability to flush toilets)….so, they will watch the kids while I go to the gym this morning.  It is upper body day! Wahoo!

I also had to go back to the Ob/Gyn yesterday.  When they did my pap last month, they didn’t get enough cells to read the pap.  So, back I went.  They also had blood drawn for a breast cancer screen since I have such a strong family history. My arm is still sore.  It was reminiscent of the good old days of blood draws every morning.  And how weird is it to walk back into the hospital and not head to the NICU.

The weather here is beautiful and I just found out that my sister and nephew and niece are coming down this weekend. So I am really hoping that today is going to be a good day……

 

Super Saturday

The trip to the gym was great!  The kids did great…except for Melissa bonking Daniel in the head with a toy.  But that is kind of par for the course.

Yoga last night was great too.  I felt great when I got home.  The hubby had fed and bathed and bedded the kids.  Wow!  What a great surprise!

This morning, I got up and went to a Mommy Market and the hubby got the kids up and fed and changed them and was playing with them when I got home.

Since the weather is so nice, we are planning on taking the kids on a walk over to the park a little later and then out to eat at old.country.buffet, where kids under 2 eat free…..(tee hee hee…if it’s free….it’s for me!)

Everyone is napping right now, the hubby is enjoying his rare Saturday off but sawing logs on the couch.  I think I may try to catch a few winks myself.

I am, for the first time in a while, feeling rather contented.  Maybe it’s the yoga, maybe it’s the endorphins, maybe it is the fact that it is in the 60’s here…..who knows….and I am not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.  By the way, who came up with that little gem?  What is “a gift horse” and why exactly shouldn’t I look in it’s mouth?  Someone tell me please!!!
