Boo at the Zoo

We went to the Zoo today, because it was such a beautiful day. They were doing "Boo at the Zoo" so there were tons of little ghouls and goblins running around. We think the boys will really enjoy it next year. This year . . . well . . . we were there for about an hour before the boys had enough. We saw some monkeys, gorillas, and the changing table in the Ladies Room. 10/30 In the parking lot. Alex in back, Nick in front.

Sigh. . . My week off is over

I had this week off because my next rotation is at OSU and they are on a slightly different schedule than my school. It was a bit of a surprise, but it was GREAT! I was able to stay home with the boys and get lots of Residency interviews scheduled. But, I am a bit behind on photos, so let's get down to business here:

10/29 This morning, Alex (left) and Nick (right) were enjoying some time on the floor. They really enjoy being able to stretch out, kick and roll. Grandma and Grandpa came up from Wilmington to visit today, and this picture was taken right before they arrived.
10/29 While Grandma and Grandpa were here, we tried on the costumes that the boys are wearing for Halloween. Alex is the lion and Nicholas is the lobster.
10/29 Tonight at Aunt Jenn and Uncle Ryan's house. Jenn hosted a Halloween party for the kids. A good time was had by all, and my ears are still ringing from all of the noise! You can see our little lion and lobster in the back.
10/23 Nicholas (left) and Alex(right) in the crib just after diaper changes
10/23. They hold hands all the time. Whenever they are close to each other it seems that one will reach for the other. They try to eat each other's fingers and toes! It's so cute.
10/18 Alex on the left, Nicholas on the right. It was picture day at daycare, and this is how they looked when I got them home. I was quite surprised to see that they made it through the whole day in these outfits! The teachers at daycare went on and on about how adorable they looked for the pictures. I think this was the first time their teachers had seen them in anything besides a sleep-n-play or onesie!
10/18 The teachers said that the boys didn't smile for their pictures - apparently they were saving their smiles for home!

Ahhhh the power of the stroller!

No matter how cranky the babies are, if we bring out the stroller, they become instantly docile. I love this stroller!

I tried to update the blog earlier this week, but I think there was something wrong with the site. Anyway, here are some new pics.
