Now seven plus weeks post-ironman and still no workouts...and loving the extra time spent with the family! The girls are a trip and a half to say the least.
Both girls are smiling and cooing on a regular basis and will mimic your facial/tongue expressions on occasion. They recognize both Gwynne and I when we are within about 4 feet of their face. This morning I "appeared" over the edge of their crib and both girls smiled at the site of my face.
Annellice has started a nasty habit of whaling when she wants her bottle...totally a fake cry, but she figures if she is loud enough the food appears faster. Some days she is right; others I make her wait until she calms down.
We've been making an effort to do more and extended sessions of "tummy time" to work on their upper body strength. Both girls have met this with varied resistance. Sometimes they spit-up their food, or just lay there, or scream endlessly, or try their exercises for a bit before lapsing into one of the aforementioned states.
Today we are off to the doctor's office for the third round of vaccine shots. Should be a particularly tough visit as there are about four shots per girl. The office will be filled with surround sound crying...are ear plugs included in the co-pay?
Oh well, here we go!
