Double Blessings

Boy are we blessed - double blessed that is with both boys!

Today marks one month from Andy's birth and he has received positive praise from every appointment thus far. We visited MFB Clinic today, and Andy was a super star! He barely opened an eye ball for the many different people that came in the room to visit him. It was almost funny to think that he might be saying, "Ha - watch me now; I'll show you what I can do"! For now we have to work on stretching his legs/toes so that any potential nerve endings can begin work once they become untramatized. When considering all the other problems Andy could have, we need to remember how fortunate we really are.

Robby continues to make me laugh and be amazed at how quickly children do learn. He has absorbed so much new vocabulary from the construction on the house that I'm sure he could remodel any house for that matter. He now speaks of measuring new cabinets, varnishing the windows, picking out granite, and laying tile w/ mud (his current favorite - probably due to the mud reference). It's hard to say what he likes more tractors or tools!

Hilarious or not-so-hilarious moments of the week:
* Andy peeing through 4 outfits in one day.
* Robby helping Andy get his passy back in his mouth even when he didn't want it.
*Robby asking the plumber for the 20th time in one day, "Watcha doing plumber guy?"
* Robby emptying 1/3 cup of dish soap on the carpet floor b/c he thought it was dirty. How do you get dish soap out of carpet? You can't add water b/c it just keeps on bubbling!!!!
* A 2 1/2 year old yelling no about 15 times in a row (as if that would make you change your mind & give in).

Yes, we truly are blessed by our boys and the many people who have been praying for us!
