A long time coming

Yes, I know it's been a long time since my last post other than pictures, but really, not a lot goes on besides feedings, getting babies to sleep and changing diapers. However, there are a few developments

  • Reece had his first real laugh on Saturday night. He laughed so loud he scared himself into tears. Lisa and I were both just sitting in the living room, she was feeding both the twins, and Reece let loose with a one second giggle. It was amazing and really funny
  • We took the babies to a professional photographer today, and we should be able to see the proofs online later tonight. We'll let folks know how to get your copies once we know. Both babies were very well behaved, and Reece is quite the camera ham, as he was posing up a storm!
  • I took a Tuesday - Friday off work this week as we are now on our own, and we needed to figure this parenting thing out. We also had appointments on 3 days this week, so it didn't make sense for me to drive back and forth a lot. It's nice to be here with the kids, and it doesn't take long to understand just how much work being with the kids 7x24 is.
  • Lorelai is developing some bad habits. She won't take a bottle anymore, and won't sleep alone. I'm working on problem #1, usually in the middle of the night, but we'll hold off solving problem #2 until #1 is completely resolved, or when she starts stealing the covers. She also can't be put down during the day for more than 10 minutes without crying, so that doesn't leave much personal time for either of us.

I'll try to write more later. Lorelai is strapped to my chest in the Baby Bjorn, and just woke up. Gotta go change a diaper and feed a baby!
