Adam and and Nathan love to ride in the shopping cart..and it keeps Mom from buying too much stuff.

Twins and Packing Fun.

The journey has begun. We started to pack today. It will be hard to move, we have made so many memories here. This is the place that we became a family in. In the time that we have lived here Steve has opened his own practice, I graduated from dental school, we got our first baby, Tucker. And of course this is the twins first home. From dog beds to cribs, from magazines to countless baby books, from dog toys to highchairs, this is home. We are all so excited to get into our new place. I will miss the neighborhood. I will miss this place. I will not miss the stairs.....Although maybe every now and then I will come back for a good workout.

So the filling of the boxes begins....

I guess we will take Nathan with us.....
No, we won't forget to take Adam too

Story time with Nathan and Adam

Adam and Nathan. They have taught us so much in this past six months. In their wide eyes we see how amazing the world can be. Rain on the car window, a water ring on the table, a cold glass of ice, shadows on the ground- these things all went unnoticed until these guys came around. We also have remembered how funny things are. Things like Mom trying to dance, and the look on Dad’s face when he makes a funny sound. But there is nothing funnier than Mom walking down the steps with 2 car seats, one diaper bag, and one very un-trained dog on a leash. These are moments to enjoy. And yes, they are twins. No they are not identical. As to the sweet and well-intentioned question of how I do it -the question is how did I do it before they were here.

Six Big Boy Months...
