Silly Kids

Fake Glasses

check out my "Timbs!"

Emme found her "practice" glasses in the car when we were cleaning it out the other day to try to fit the double stroller and single stroller in the back. We managed to squeeze them both in. I have come to the realization that we cannot drive anyone else in the car if Paul, Emme, Jack and myself are in the car. No one else can fir with the monster car seats and the strollers. I need to get horse trailers for Tom and Jerry! I guess I will have to start saving for a school bus!

As for the pictures of Jack he is modeling off his Timberland boots. I came across these in the newborn shoe bin at the local consignment shop. I think I paid $4 for them. They are so, so cute. The treads are painted on the bottom!

It's All About Dora The Explorer and Diego

It's an addiction. Emme talks about Dora, wants to be Dora with a backpack, and has even resorted to counting in Spanish. Tonight Dora's Ballet Adventure was on and Emme went nuts. She wanted her tutu like Dora and proceeded to dance across the living room. Thank you Grandma & Grandpa Q for the ballerina outfit. I even caught Emme the other morning trying to put a smal piece onto her toy and getting frustrated. She called out "ayudeme!" which means help me in Spanish. Hopefully she won't go swinging across my living room next when Dora swings through the jungle with Diego!

Happy Birthday to Emme Again

Emme and Dolly in matching dresses


Today we finally got to celebrate Emme's birthday with Grandma and Grandpa Q. Grandpa Q is home from the hospital and doing well and we are also celebrating St. Patrick's Day early. Everyone had a great time and Grandpa finally got to meet Jack. He and I are both hoping Jack keeps his blue eyes since we both have blue eyes. Keri made a delicious chocolate cake from scratch that was so so good. Break that kitchen in good Keri. We will come and sample any meal you wish to cook for us!


Thinking about them Yankees.......

Superdeliciousyum!

Clifford!

I am excited that Emme is smart and has a good memory but sometimes it's over the top. This kid knows when we get off the exit for the Danbury Mall that we are going to ride the carousel and use the potty with the blue seat! When we drive past the JV Mall she tells me the Bear store is closed and she wants to ride on Clifford. I cannot even push the stroller around the mall on the 2nd floor without her trying to climb out to see where Clifford is on the floor below. She will remember exactly what you say and when you say she can do something so you better stick to it. There will be no deviation in the plan. Or be prepared for a meltdown!!!

Jack's First Bath

Jack got his first real bath today since his bellybutton stump fell off last night. I let Paul give him the bath in the secret hope he would get peed on but unfortunately Jack was good. :) Jack hated the water for the first part- he screamed and screamed but then at the end he was just hanging out in the empty tub. I was surprised he wasn't cold.

Visit with Grandma Q

Today we headed down to Paul's parents' house to make a visit. My father in law is still in the hospital and has yet to meet Jack and my mother in law has only seen him once so since I have been given the ok to drive YAY! we headed down to visit. Hopefully we will be able to have Jack meet his Grandpa Q in the coming weeks since he should be out of the hospital very soon!

As for the nurse service, they are wonderful. The wound is healing much better since I have been taking the homeopathic drug Traumeel and since the wound is being cared for in a less harsh manner.
