Dearest Miracles~

Grace, you didn't wake up until 6am this morning!  Daddy changed you and then I nursed you.  Once Joshua was awake, we all went downstairs.  I steam sterilized the pump pieces and ran the dishes.  Joshua, you would not eat any cheerios for breakfast.  You drank some milk though.

By mid morning Grace was napping in her swing.  Joshua ate some goldfish crackers and then drank a boost.  UNC called me to set up Joshua's second appointment with the feeding team.  They only see 'new patients' on wednesdays and since Joshua hasn't seen the GI specialist yet, he's considered 'new.'  So, daddy will take him on the 28th at 10am.  I'll be at work.  Penny will be here though to watch Grace and to help daddy out. 

Joshua, you did something cute this morning .... you put a little toy on Grace's head like a hat and then smiled and giggled.  Grace giggled too until it slid off her head.  It was so cute.  ;-)

Grace, you had two huge poops today that ended with outfit changes each time.  I let you play in diaper after second the second time and then tried giving you some sweet potatoes.  You're messy when you eat anyway, so I figured I would put a new outfit on you once you finished eating.  :-P

We had two people come to our house today.  We had someone come out to look at our dryer.  We thought the sensor wasn't working, but in fact our vents are clogged.  We'll work on vacuuming them out this weekend so things don't get backed up (could be a fire hazard).

The second guy was a contractor.  We want to see what our options are with the wall between the living room and study.  If we're going to tear out the carpet in those rooms and place floors, we wanted to see if the wall could be opened as well.  He took some measurements and gave me an estimate.  Another guy is going to take a look tomorrow too for a second opinion.

Once they left, I vacuumed the living room and kitchen.  I also swept the kitchen and vacuumed the play room.  Then, we had some music time and play time.  I had a CD going and I 'wrestled' with Joshua on the floor.  :-)

It rained all day today.  Everyone ended up napping this afternoon together.  I held Grace as she napped since it was right after I had nursed her.  Oh, Grace, you're beginning to rub your eyes and face to show that you're tired.  It's so adorable!  I remember when Joshua started to do that.  :-)

Daddy was home early this afternoon.  He was home by 5pm.  :-)  We made a pizza for dinner.  Joshua ate an entire piece of string cheese and a few pieces of pizza!

We made a quick trip to Target this evening for groceries.  We'll be busy tomorrow and won't have time to go out.  I'm sorry little man, there were no cookies out for you.  Perhaps next time.  Grace, you cried on the entire drive home.  Good thing we don't live far.  You were fine once you were out of your car seat and being held.  :-P

Everyone fought sleep and cried this evening.  Fun times!  :-P  I was trying to get Grace to learn how to fall asleep on her own.  You still use me as a pacifier to go to bed.  Joshua, you cried in your toddler bed until daddy sat down next to you.

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you both so much!
