Once again, I find myself beginning yet another blog with an apology for the lack of consistent blogging. I assume I am forgiven seeing as how I can't seem to change two diapers or feed two mouths and type at the same time, although I have tried and failed quite a few times. :)
Evie Kate and Graham are growing so much these days! It feels wonderful as a mommy to know they are healthy and growing but sometimes you wish you could just hug them and squeeze them tight enough that they would stay tiny forever. Alas, they are growing in so many more ways than one. Their curious little eyes and hands want to see and touch everything.. finally "playing" with some toys and by that I mean swatting at. It is so precious to watch them smile and coo at everything around them; I wish I saw the world through their eyes often. Yes indeed the smiling and cooing is in full force and I am loving every single one! Evie Kate is our Chatty Cathy at night right after her bath and feeding and Graham... well he always has something to say and thinks everything is hilarious. :)
It is so true that those first smiles are priceless as a parent. It melts your heart in an instant. Those sweet smiles are well worth the last 8 weeks of sleep depravation. :) I simply can't wait for those first words but are hoping these two hold off on the crawling and walking for a while; I can only imagine how fun that is going to be.
I officially return to work Wednesday, July 7th. Bittersweet really is the word for my feelings. I know I am going to cry crocodile tears when their grandmommy comes to get them, but honestly it will be nice to return to an "adult" environment and my old routine. I am so thankful for my job and have missed all those I work with so much. Needless to say my desk will be wall-papered in their photos.
Oh, exciting news! Evie Kate's hair is growing back!! Indeed, she has some lovely dark brown hair coming in just like mommy! Graham, unfortunately has fallen victim to an adorable heart-shaped recession. :) I love how delightfully different their looks and personalities are; we truly are so blessed with two amazing children.
Well, Graham is "calling" me ever so politely from his crib so I must go. Wish me luck!
