making new memories from the old..

ron has had off this week from work, unfortunately it has gone by waaaaay too fast. we dedicated ourselves to finally getting the nursery done..well its 10 pm on saturday night, and we still have to do the second coat of paint. so, picking up the cribs is out of the question...ah well, dunno when that will get done :(
the main obstacle has been the boys being slightly more needy, and much more sweet, smiley and cuddly to be around.
they have gotten into a bad habit of taking about an hour to eat..they just keep snacking and snacking. i think we have a growth spurt going on, because they will eat a full bottle and an hour later be crying for more.
also, when they aren't crying for food..they really have been just wanting attention..which of course i am happy to give :)
they have been smiling and babbling constantly, and even if they fall asleep, if they wake up and you are not there, they cry until they see one of us..then its back to the happy babble fest.
it is so much fun, i mean that is what i have spent my entire day doing..sitting in the couch with a baby on either side of me, both vying for my attention, "talking" up a storm.
we did get to have a special day this week.."family day".
we decided we will have one family day a week (which by default will now be sunday, because its ron's only day off) in which we spend it just the four of us, just enjoying each other's company.
this week was really special because we took the boys to the location where we got married the hermitage
it was a pretty hot day, so we let the boys hang in their diapers

it was such a great time, except we were overrun by ants, and poor little ronnie had a massive throw-up while daddy was feeding him. i think it was almost more upsetting for daddy than ronnie.
but i think they both enjoyed the comforting session..


we had planned on going to va beach too, to walk the boardwalk..but it was so hot, and after little ronnie's puke, i felt we should kinda cut the day short. i did get the boys these little hats to wear at the beach.
joey tried his out at the picnic..


like i said this week is already over too soon. i am glad that ron has gotten to be home when the boys are being so much fun, but i know this week starts a new semester for the academy, and another long period of time where i will hardly see ron. i'm going to miss him, and i know the boys will too..
