Had to post this!

It's no wonder I don't keep up with my blog as much as I would like. But I just had to post this tonight because it's priceless and I know one day I will want to remember this...
So tonight we are getting ready for bed. I had just fed Elijah, Jay was putting Noa to sleep and me, Isaac and Elijah are playing in the play area. (We now have a big gate in the middle of the living room to keep the twins in! They are moving now so the only way I can keep them contained was to get a fence! So we have a big play yard, I believe that's what it's called! This is to keep them from getting into things that they don't need to get into! Or so I thought...) I was working on the computer and Elijah was entertaining himself while Isaac was singing really loud and doing flips or something trying to burn off some energy before bed. Well Elijah comes over and starts crawling on my legs. Then he starts coughing and I notice at that point that something is in his mouth. So I reach in to get it because he seems to almost be choking. And it's a bandaid!!!! One of isaac's that must have come off or something. The good thing is Isaac just puts bandaids on for no reason, so it probably was not one that had covered a wound, but still... So once I got the bandaid out of his mouth he just starts vomitting all over me!!!! So I'm sitting there holding Elijah, as Isaac is watching all this, covered in puke. I start trying to quietly trying to yell for jay because I knew he was trying to get Noa to sleep. I finally got Isaac to go "whisper" to him that Elijah just threw up and I needed his help. It worked and Jay came in and we, all 3, me, Elijah, and Isaac got in the shower. No Isaac did not get thrown up on. He just loves taking showers with us;)

Its been FOREVER!

Well its late and I probably should go to bed but I was just on a friends blog and realized how long it had been since I posted something.  I'm sitting here holding Elijah.  No they are not sleeping through the night yet.  I think it is harder with two because we can't use the 'ole cry it out method because they will wake the other one up so we pretty much go running in as soon as they make a peep and try to do whatever to get them back to sleep.  Not that we are good at the cry it out method anyway;) It never worked that great with Isaac.  We are both weak and just give in:)  They will be 7 months next week!  So hard to believe they are getting so big!  I ordered some pictures the other day from their 8 day old photo shoot.  It was so good to look back!  I barely remember those days!!  Makes me sad!  Its all pretty much a blur...  Guess I should go back and read my blog now:)

They are doing great and moving all over!!  Noa is sitting up perfectly!  She mostly gets around by siting up and falling over, then rolling or scooting where she wants to be.  She has been pulling up on things lately and trying to stand up.  Crazy!!  Elijah isn't sitting up yet but he is a mover!!  He can army crawl anywhere he needs to be!  Yesterday I was on the back porch with Isaac getting him set up in his little pool when Elijah comes crawling out the back door!  Got to watch that boy!!

They have started eating a few solids.  Bananas, peas, avocado, and squash.  Elijah is a great eater.  Noa is catching on:)  She likes to spit it out a lot!

Here are a few pictures Melissa took when we went to the lake with the Weber's.  Isaac was totally not interested!!

Our streak of bad luck...

We are in the middle of everything going wrong!! I was just thinking of all the things that have gone wrong lately and I thought it would be great to write it all down so one day I can look back and laugh. Or say, oh that's why we are in debt!!! Let's see it started when our septic messed up. I think I wrote about that already. (see "what a mess" April 14). So after that happened, our garage door broke because the plumber guy left the air pump in front of it so when jay went to open it the garage door bent all up. Then our lawn mower broke. It runs but the blades don't go down to cut the grass. Kind of important! Isaac has 7 cavities My mac crashed. Luckily I didn't loss everything (well I hope not, still waiting on that). Oh yes, and today, jay borrowed our neighbors lawn mower to cut our grass since ours is broken. And yes he broke it. He kind of fixed it so that's good. We went to Chuck E. Cheese tonight just to give isaac a little treat and the power went out while we were there. I'm scared to think of what could come next!! Hopefully we are due for some good luck to sprinkle on us!!!

Another Roll

Noa rolled over tonight. She has been trying even before Elijah was and I was for sure she would roll over first but he surprised me. She was actually reaching for isaac's train and rolled over to get it. She loves grabbing and holding things!! I put her in the bouncey thing that hangs from the doorway today. She enjoyed that a lot too.
Isaac wanted to go to the park today so we went to the outlets where there is a playground there. Jay wanted to go there. It was good because the twins could be in the ac while Isaac played on the playground. It was hot!!!! As we were walking to the playground we passed childrens place. Isaac saw all the clothes and I think I said that's where they have your clothes. Well we played a little bit on the playground until he got too hot I guess because he said I want to go see isaac's clothes. So we went in childrens place and he picked out a whole outfit for himself. Shoes and all. And he picked something out for the twins too! He was really cute.
We are working on no paci!! Let's hope I can stick with it!! It helped that we have lost them all and we couldn't find any. I'll let you know how it goes!!

So lesson learned...

Don't expect to get two babies asleep outside when it's 90 (ok it was probably only 85) degrees. Plus humidity!! :). And I'm sure the loud music didn't help either.

At one point I was thinking camping would be a fun get away. I'm rethinking that now!!!
