Happy 30th Birthday Alan!!!!!!

Today was Alan's 30th birthday! I think he had a good day! My sister Stephanie and her boyfriend Travis came over to watch the babies for us so we could have an adult fun day.We left after the babies went down for their first nap. We started by going to the credit union to add Alan to my account. Ohhhh hold us back we are crazy!

Then we decided to go to Peace Valley Park and go kayaking. We rented a double kayak. We bobbed and weaved quite a bit, but we had fun. After that we went home to shower and change.

We had a very nice lunch at Red Lobster. We then decided to look at cell phones. Didn't get anything though. Then we decided to walk around the mall some before we went to the movies. We went to see Toy Story 3. I loved it! It was very cute. I can't wait till it comes out on dvd so we can get it!

We ended our night back at home having pizza and cake with my sister and Travis. Fun filled day! :)

x-ray update

Last Friday the 23rd the boys went in for their x-rays of their hips. They needed to have this done to check for hip displasia(sp) due to being breech. I was a little worried about Nathan since he is constantly in the "froggy" position. Their results both came back normal! Yay! :)

Whip cream anyone?

Before the babies I used to work at a day care. One of the things we used to do in the infant and toddler room was put them in the high chairs and let them play with shaving cream. They would drive trucks through it and just make a nice mess. It's fun for them and a good sensory activity. Well I didn't want my guys putting shaving cream in their mouths so we decided to try whip cream. It's mostly air so why not! I am also trying to get them to learn to put food in their mouths and I thought this might help.

So I put a squirt on everyone's tray. They jumped a little at the sound of the whip cream spraying. Paige dove right in and started playing. Nathan looked at it and then me like what do you want me to do with that? Levi did the same as Nathan. We then took their hands and put it in the whip cream. I also gave them eat a taste. Pretty soon Paige and Levi were going to town. Nathan wanted nothing to do with it. Oh well maybe next time :)

tutu envy :)

My sister decided she wanted to wear Paige's tutu!

Tutu

I made Paige her first tutu today. I see them all the time online and I decided to try making one myself. It was surprisingly easy and didn't take me very long. I might have found a new way to make some extra cash! :) Anyone want a tutu? hehe.

Our first injury!

And it's not the kids! :) Haha. Tonight we were feeding the trio their dinner. They were starting to get fussy in their highchairs waiting for their turn to get a bite of food. Well Alan decided to play peek-a-boo using our dining room table to "hide" behind. Well he was coming up to say boo and I'm sure you can guess what happened.....Thwack! Right on the top of his head! He hit it pretty hard too. He now has a nice red horn on the top of his head. And being the big, strong, man that he is......he hasn't stopped complaining about it and wondering if he has a concussion. :) Love him! I think he is fine since he is in the basement playing his guitar and singing. I am going to try to get a pic....but no promises!

Tomorrow we are taking the boys for x-rays of their hips. Since they were breech they told us at 6 months they would do x-rays. Of course it took me a while to make the appointment but hey I eventually did it right!? So hopefully it goes well tomorrow and they both come back fine. I'm a little concerned about Nathan because he tends to keep his legs "frog" like when laying down and that's something they look for. We shall see.
