Three Stages of Matty

September 2005 - aspiring to be a centerfold




September 2006 - on a pretense of being angelic, but notice Koby barricading herself





October 2007 - a pro at puzzles and still mischeivous.




Matty comes up with the funniest things everyday. It seems like just yesterday he was a chubby rolly polly baby who cried loudly whenever he didn't get his way. Wait. He is still this way! But definitely a lot funnier, a lot smarter, a lot more sensitive and a lot more loving.

Down, But Not Out.

Runny nose, cough, fever, irritability and possible ear infection sent the twins to the doctor today. Little Miss Katie, you have the worst of it. Your fever was 101.4 at the doctor's office. The doctor was great and wanted to be on the cautious side. He had your blood oxygen measured but the machine didn't cooperate. You were a trooper though! You hardly made a sound when the nurses were fiddling with your toe, then your finger, then your ear, then your foot. They finally just gave up and said you're nice and pink! But you do have bronchiolitis, could be due to RSV. Thank goodness you have had RSV shots.

Katie fell asleep while on the nebulizer.

Jojo, fell asleep in her carseat while sissy was on the nebulizer.

Little Jo, you have a runny nose and maybe an ear infection but the doctor said you don't need anything. But mommy has to watch out because you probably have RSV, too, just not as far along as sissy.

You girls will age mommy! But that's alright, it's my job to worry about you and your Big Bro.

Pimp My Playstation!

So we decided to invest on a pimped out stationary playstation for the girls. The one that big brother used as a baby is just not enough.

After:



Katie, don't worry. Those toys are not out to get you. Promise!



Here's the one that has been pimped out the block a few times before it even reached Big Brother.

Before:



(Notice the intensity of the stare on the camera since there's nothing else to stare at.)



After:




(Notice how she's STILL staring at the camera 10 minutes later.)

Don't worry Princess Jo, you will have your turn on the schizophrenia-inducing playstation.

Me and My Team

Thank you, Dora and Diego, for keeping the little ones company. You didn't mind the germ-infested livingroom, and held down the fort with me.

Oh and thank you, DVR. I can only take "More Diego, more diego!" so many times.

And thank you, Clorox wipes. Until the next outbreak.

We make a great team. We'll do lunch.

Yo, homies!

Jojo, keep in mind that your mother has been up all night long changing poopy diapers (I will not embarass you and say whose diapers they were). Momma thinks yo' coo'.

Katie, keep in mind that your mother has been up all night long changing poopy diapers (I will not embarass you and say whose diapers they were). Momma thinks yo' fab!

Look, Ma!

Though I am proud at how nurturing you are becoming, I don't think your dad would be too happy if you become versed on the intricacies of breastfeeding twins.

How do twins sleep?

Oct. 23, 2007 - almost 5 months old

The little Physicists have figured out the best position for maximum air flow so that they can keep cool during the hot days. Or perhaps it is a more efficient use of crib space?

Little Jo, I'm sorry to say that you have the bad end of the deal. If I were you, I'd move way from that general vicinity.
