Mail Lady Mixup

Apparently when i was at work Saturday, the mail lady was A LITTLE confused. Here is the story as told to me: Kendall, Gary, and Nikki were taking Layla and Aidan out into the front yard to play. The mail lady commented on the kids, saying oooh they look just like their father, looking at Gary, Gary realized she was talking to him and then said, "oh nooo im not the father" and pointed at Kendall "he is!". The mail lady goes "ooh their skin is so light", and Nikki chimed in, "oh their mother is light skinned". The mail lady still didn't get it, and said something about Nikki being their mother, and she is like "noo their mother isnt here we just are the roommates!" Well, the mail lady came back around a while later(she parks by our house) and commented again, "Well they look so much like you (Gary and Nikki), you must be the aunts and uncles?" And Gary again answered, Nope no relation at all! The lady must have been sooo confused!

SUNday!

Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Sacrifices Of Having Twins:

1. Warm Meals
2. All my food to myself (They like me to share)
3. Regular Showers
4. Naps
5. Clean clothes without food stains (They enjoy spitting it everywhere)
6. Sleeping in on Saturdays
7. Good back without pain
8. Clean house (More kids stuff than I own)
9. Free-time
10. Going to the bathroom without having to hold it for an hour while soothing upset babies!
11. Make-up
12. Watching my T.V. shows (Cartoons are great...on a limited bases!)
13. Music that isn't a theme song to a cartoon!

In the end? It’s ALL worth it!

Weekly Wednesday Catchup

Layla trying out the walker from the late 70's early 80's...Yes it went through all 4 of us kids, and now 2 more!

Aidan getting on his knees! He then isn't sure how to go forward, so he goes back to his tummy frustrated! Getting close!
Aidan showing off his time in the walker, they really like being able to get around and into more stuff!
Sibling rivalry, already, aww...they need to continue being best friends! :D
Layla showing how to not sit in the bouncy chair...this is why we have to strap her in, she can get pretty wild! Wonder who she gets that from? ;)

Busy Week

I haven't been able to update much lately, things have been busy with so many final projects due this next week and then finals the following, it is hard to juggle all of that, the kids, Kendall's schedule vs mine, and work, so i put internet at the bottom of my priority list, however i am only updating to procrasinate writing the rest of my psych research paper for my death and dying class. Oh joy!
Here is Aidan lounging with Kendall, he is tickling him, he is such a silly kid, him and Layla are still not crawling but are SOOO close!!! I can't wait! They are almost over their horrible colds, Layla had it more in her head, with a CONSTANT runny nose, and Aidan had it in his chest, so that kept us on edge since we were worried it would go into something worse! They just sleep in their swings so they can breathe better. Hopefully soon they will go back to the crib, and i think soon after that Aidan will move into his own crib since Layla tends to pick on him all night long keeping him awake. (she rolls over to play with his face, pull his ears, take his paci..quite the little bully!)

Back Pain

Since the beginning of March i have been having horrible backpain that has been increasing more and more, this morning when i woke up i couldn't stand up straight, i was unable to pick up the kids, bend over, and barely get out of bed from the pain! Since the joint doctor here only comes on tuesday i couldn't wait till then, so this morning i headed to the ER. Found out from my pregnancy, my joints as with every lady having a baby, spread, including the bones and muscles in my lower back, wellllll turns out they did not go back properly in to place and are "off" a bit. This is causing pain which the Doctor says ill have forever pretty much, i need to see a physical therapist to help work my joints and muscles to help the pain, ice it, and take antiinflamitories, muscle relaxers and yes strong pain killers. Hopefully i can stretch enough that i dont have to be feeling disabled and hobbling around in pain all my life!

Duece-Duece

Today is my 22 Birthday! YAY!

Ms. Layla fell asleep looking at the orange seahorse and ended up staying on her side, Cutie! Here is a little bear i got for my birthday from my mom and dad, his name is "lil Elliot. Next to him is a penguin for my ipod from Gary and Nikki, when you plug him in he lights up to the music, and has different moods, moves around and makes little penguin noises. You can kind of see the lights on his belly, he is a speaker.
I recieved 2 balloons already for my birthday, One from my parents, the other singing one from Karen :) Here is Aidan enjoying one of the balloons on Nikki's lap, they LOVE the balloons! haha.
Here is Layla and Aidan dressed up for my birthday, i didn't put pants on Aidan since it is pretty warm outside. Layla is wearing a blue dress i wore as a baby, and then later Karen and I would put it on our little weiner dog Shirley. hehe ill show pictures of that later!
Kendall got me the Girls Next Door sesson one, i love it! And also a tennis racquet so he can teach me how to play, we went the other day with Gary, and Chris, it was a lot of fun but i need aLOT of work haha!

Stress Test How do you score?

Here is just a stress test, it is simple i had to do it for a class, its about the last year your stress level, mine is 398. Pretty High. http://www.stresstips.com/lifeevents.htm

Dinner for ME!

Aunt Karen and Layla playing together! Her and Zach came for my early birthday dinner! :)
Aidan, Nana and Grandpa posing for the picture! Im really glad my parents got to come down today, they havn't been able to make it do to weather for sometime now! The kids enjoyed the time with them! We all got to eat dinner, we didnt make it to Applebees, but we did takeout, since we didn't know how the kids would act in the restuarant, and it gave us more time to spend playing with Layla and Aidan than if we wouldve have been in a packed restuarant! :D Great GREAT start to my birthday week!!! :D

Crawling 101

The babes are getting close, Aidan can get on his knees but then he falls off them not sure what to do after that, Layla is scooting backwards sometimes, she needs to get out of reverse! :D I am hoping by my birthday they will crawl or be VERY close since last year they kicked the day before my birthday and they sat on Kendalls birthday!
