Milestones for the boys

Well you all know that Michael has been rolling over and Matt was so content on lying on back and only moving his head. Well he finally did it on Wednesday 1/28/09. Tim and I were playing on the mat with the boys and he rolled over from is back to his stomach. I am so glad he just wants to do everything at his own pace. Michael's first tooth cut through on Saturday 1/24/09. We felt a little point and now you can feel the whole tooth. Both of them are really sick right now again. First the stomach virus and now they are coughing bad and have runny noses.

Monday was my birthday and it was almost as bad as when I had to spend the whole day with the Pope when I was 19. Here's the story if you don't already know it. On my 19th birthday my mom got tickets for us to see the Pope at the youth really. It was supposed to be me, Chrissy, Brian, Kenny and Michael. Well Brian couldn't go so Chrissy's new boyfriend Jim went. (Can you believe that it has been 10 years since they started dating.) I think Jim went to look good in the family. So anyway we had to be at the Northland parking lot by 7 am. We took a bus to the Arch I think we had to walk to the Savvis center. All we heard was church group music like DC Talk or something like that. We finally got back to the parking lot got the car and Jim took Kenny and Michael home first I was so upset I was crying. Oh yeah, not to mention that is was not comfortable in his little Saturn with 3 people in the back. That is not how I wanted to spend my whole entire birthday. Come to find out we could have went the next day to the Mass for 4 hours instead of 16 hours with the youth group kids. My friends surprised me with some presents and a cake in the Handy Man parking lot on Washington.

oh, I will post pictures later. I have some at home on the camera but my work computer will not let me move them around. The boys also had a helmet appt. today, I will update you on that too.
I hate working on my birthday, it sucks. Well this year was just boring. The weather sucked the boys were sick and I was supposed to be resting. Oh yeah and I couldn't have a beer to take the edge off. We are going to celebrate on Saturday at the Night at the Races.

6 month check up

I took the boys for their 6 month well visit and they are doing great. They did not weigh as much as I thought they would but they are still getting fat. Maybe they lost a pound or two when they were sick last week.

Matthew weighed 17lb even (50%) 26 1/4 (50%) and he has a small head he is only in the 25%

Michael weighed 17lb 8oz (50%) 26 3/4 in (60%) and his head is in the 50%.

I took them to get their 6 month pictures on Monday. They turned out so good. Here are some pictures to hold everyone over.

Some pictures of the boys.

JACKIE, here are your pictures that you have been begging me for.

The boys have been sick all week so we haven't taken a lot of pictures, we have been cleaning up throw-up and diarrhea. We gave the kids baths today and we took some new pictures.

UMMMM...... Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tim and I found out last Friday that we are expecting another baby. Sometime in mid-September. WOW! that's what we said. So it happened 6 months earlier than we expected. Funny thing is we can pinpoint the exact day. We are really excited. I want a little girl this time. For some reason some of my family members think that I am going to have another set of twins. Thanks for calling that, we will find out on President's Day. I wanted to wait and tell everyone but I couldn't.

Babies are sick.

Saturday, I just got finished feeding Matt laid him down on his play mat and he threw up all over. Disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then, we were getting ready to leave and I was giving him a kiss with my mouth closed and he threw up all over my face by my nose and mouth. It was so gross. Tim and Diona couldn't stop laughing. Just wait it will happen to them too. I started to get sick Sunday night, Michael started on Monday along with Tim and they are all still sick. Mine lasted 24 hrs. Not to bad.

I have my second cake decorating class tonight. I can't wait. I am going to make a round rainbow cake. I will post pictures sometime soon, I hope.

5 month pictures

I took the boys to get their 5 month pictures and they turned out so good, it was hard for me to choose. I didn't get any of the special ones. I just got a few of them together and 1 of them separate.
