I know its been awhile, but I have been so busy! We took the boys trick or treating and they where so cute! Batman and Robin. It was funny, I thought that they would get scared but they where really good. Than school has really been busy. I was sick the last few days and lets just say that it has not been good. I feel alot better today, which is good because I have class tonight and I just dont want to miss it.
I have been on Myspace lattley and wow I feel kinda trendy!! check it out if you want and ask to be my friend the more the merrier!! I think I am going to blog in both spots now.

Back in august when the boys went for there 9 month check up, Aidan held his breath after getting a shot and decided to pass out. (Not a good time I freaked out) The doctor told me this was normal that some kids are breath holders. Great, just what I need. Well, Tonight I got home from school early, just before the boys went to bed. Oh course they where both excited to see me. I was holding Eliot and Aidan fell over and hit his head on the corner of the incredi-block. He started to cry, I was reaching my hand out for him to sooth him and he stopped crying!!! He started turning red in the face and he was making no noise! Great he is now holding his breath again. He has not done this since back in august. I reached over for him and kind of shock his shoulders. I know that's not the best thing to do but I was freaking out in times like this one does not think straight, finally I blew in his face and he started crying. I just held him and he calmed down in just a few moments. I told my husband that I will just freak out if he does this to me all the time. That's my Aidan....

Eliot is now starting to walk! He can walk about 5-6 steps to me and kyle. He's really funny when he walks, he puts both arms in front of him. Kyle says he looks like frankinstin!! School has me really busy. I did have last Monday off and so did kyle so we went to the zoo with Karen and the girls. After the zoo we went to McDonald and Eliot fell asleep in the car. He would not wake up for anything and he sleeped right through lunch. It was funny, I tried to put him in the highchair and he just put his head on the table sleeping!! I ended up holding him the whole time. It was a funny sight! I have a chemisty test tonite....wish me luck. I spent the last few nights studying like crazy. This is my first test in this class.
This weekend we are taking the boys to a Halloween party with the in laws. Saturday nite its girls night out with Karen and the girls....Its going to be fun I don't get out that much.

Today before I had to go to class I was playing with the boys. We have a long hallway that goes to there play room. I hide in the playroom and pop out when they are coming down the hall. They think its the worlds funniest thing, because they laughed so hard. Aidan was walking towards me and decided to turn around and run. It was funny because he took this leap or something and fell. I was roaring like I was a lion and coming in closer. He was laughing trying to get away but I got him and he just laughed and smiled at me.....That's truly the best!!

I went to wal mart alone last night. No kids and no husband. It was nice to get a little time to myself. I wanted to check out the new tickle me elmo. I have not been able to find them anywhere, I ask an employee and they said they sell out in less than 20 min.!
FORGET IT!! I don't want one that bad. I checked on eBay and they are going for about $70-$100. I just wait till after Christmas to get one when no one cares about them anymore! I would never pay that much for something you can get in the store for $20!

We have a walker! Aidan is walking. Not like a pro or anything just stumbling around like a drunk. He's getting better everyday. Eliot still just crawls everywhere and has no interest in walking. He's a good crawler and just wants to do things his way. He is never to far behind Aidan. Once Aidan is doing it all the time he will catch up.
I have been really busy with all my classes Chemistry has tons of homework every week. Its a ton of math...blah and in life span I had to write a paper. Other than that not much going on. I really live a boring life. Kyle is settling into his new job and his boss is really looking to him for some good ideas to change up some classes to make them better. Kyle had an idea for a new class and they are going to look into it to see if they can get the computer program for it. I know he really wants to do well. I think he's doing a great job so far!

The boys have been really good the last couple of days. It rained on there birthday so we just stayed home as a family. That's kind of rare lately. With kyles m-f job and I go to class 3 nights a week and work most weekends, we never get to spend much time the 4 of us.
Today the boys where all over me. If one climbed up in my lab to be held than the other was right behind them trying to kick the other off. This would cause them to whine! I just hate it when there is whining. They really only do this when they are tired but today it was like they had to fight for my attention. I told them mommy has enough lap for both of them.

Yesterday I realized that they know how to throw things. I learned this the hard way, when I was laying on the floor a peek-a-block landed on my forehead....Ouch! Its funny to watch them throw something than chase after it and throw it again! Everyday I notice something new. The no bottle thing is 100% now!! They are really good eaters! Aidan more than Eliot but still good. I hate that they are still kind of small for there age (in the 30th % for weight). I don't want them to be fat just a good size. The dr. Tells me that they will catch up soon! I know they will.

Had the boys birthday party today! It was a lot of fun and they where really good. They got lots of cool new toys, PJ's, Books and even a winter coat for each of them. They loved the cake and made a huge mess but they had fun. I can't believe that I will wake up tomorrow morning and they will be one. We gave up the bottle today is day #3 with out one and they are doing fine on whole milk. They really are good eaters. I think we are going to the zoo as a family tomorrow. That is if it does not rain.

I was thinking on my way home from school about my life this time last year. I was laying in a hospital bed waiting for my boys. At that point I just wanted to have them so I could go home. I had been there already for over 3 weeks.
I really had no clue what to expect when my babies would be born. I really did not think of that. I don't know if other mothers have that feeling. Its like your done being pregnant and you just want your body back and you just want to sleep with out getting up to pee 100 times. Its just you kind of want your life back, but you really don't ever, or should I say you do but its really different!
I layed in bed at night and cried and cried. I miss my home, I missed my dog and I missed my bed. I had no clue than were I would be in one year.
So mush has happened in so little time. The boys where born, Aidan was back in the hospital, than each of them had surgery(on separate times ), my sister would move down, I went back to work, I quite work, we decided to move and we did!, we bought a house, Kyle got a great job, I went back to school and a big birthday party to end the first crazy year. Would I change anything? Maybe something. But I would do it all again for them! I wanted nothing more than to have my own family and here it is!!
I remember after I had the boys (like seconds after) A doctor came over to me to tell me that the boys where doing great. They where breathing on there own and they look wonderful. Than he joked about us having an "instant family". Boy was he right! As I was driving I was wondering where I will be one year from now. I never think ahead. Gosh I don't even know what I am doing in one week let alone a year. I do like the excitement! The thrill of not knowing.....Its a rush!

I got home eary tonight from class, so I got to see the boys before they went to bed. I hate coming home late and they are already sleeping. Kyle had there PJ's on before I got home so we just played for awhile and than I brushed there 4 teeth and it was off to nite nite land.

Went to walmart today. I dressed the boys and gave them lunch and I keep going back and forth, should I go or should I just stay home. Its so much work to get the boys in the car, one at a time. Than I just hate the stares I get..... we went after lunch. The boys need some new shoes, for the ones that they have are getting kind of small. They had nothing that I liked. So I got some more yogurt for them, they just love that stuff. While I was looking at sippy cups an employee started to talk to the boys. They sometimes are scared of other people and boy they were scared now! She keep saying "Are you gone talk to me??" They just stared at her than looked at me. She told me they where cute and I thanked her. For once in my life I would just love to go out in public and not be a freak show!! My mom says "there twins and everyone just loves them!" No they don't there just freaken nosey. Today I was not asked any odd questions but sometimes I do. "Are they twins?", "Did you have a c-section?", "Did you take drugs?" Leave me alone people! That's what I feel like saying but really would you ask anyone these things? Not I! I should say "Yes they are twins and we concived them in the women on top postion." I think people would just DIE!!! ha ha haha

Oh I have class tonite. So its daddy alone with the boys. Hes a good daddy. But he leaves such a mess for me. 4 More days and they will be ONE!!!

So here we go.....I know I should have done this a long time ago. My boys will be 1 is 6 day!! They have grown from little tiny babies that we where so afraid of to normal toddlers who crawl all over the place.....Aidan is even starting to walk, taking a few steps by himself. Here I will share with everyone my life with twins who will soon be one! I might even go back and remember some of my life in the early days of motherhood with my two little guys, that are worth so much to me.
