Twins


As of Wednesday afternoon we gained a new child/brother! We are babysitting my nephew Connor while his family escapes to Lake Powell (17 month olds are just super tricky on a houseboat--the reason I'm leaving mine behind come July...) He is exactly 5 weeks older than my Olivia but as far as schedules go, these 2 are right on the same page. Life is certainly busy with 2 toddlers but they both still take 2 naps a day, love to eat and eat fastened nicely in their high chairs, and crash for the night around 7:00 pm for a full 12 hours of sleep. They are good little babies and very contented to play in the toy room with the big kids and wear themselves out wandering all around the house and checking everything out.

Connor has boosted Livs desire to walk everywhere in just 24 hours and it's so cute how she is trying to keep up. And Bentley and Cares are fully entertained by 2 babies--especially at mealtime. Bentley has eaten all his meals sitting right across from Connor so he doesn't have to be in the middle of what he calls a "girl sandwich" (girls on either side) while at the table.

Mushy mushersons! I wish you luck but you are a pro so I'm sure things will go great.

Thank you thank you for taking care of my little man. Love the matchers. He has been a little rough to deal with since we got back but maybe it is because he is missing his twin.
