First Day of School

Well, everyone lied. Everyone said "Oh - he will do fine" ; "Oh -Joey is so sociable - he will have no problems"; "Oh - you will be worse than he is"

LIARS - EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU IS A LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So - Joey wouldn't get on the bus....wait - scratch that....he got on the bus - and then burst out crying and had to be taken OFF the bus!

So, I agreed to drive him to school - guess what? Major meltdown at the school - before I left - and then (as detailed by the School Social Worker when she called me) AFTER I had left!

He did take the bus home though - and he was all smiles and light. I had to bribe him with Chuck-E-Cheese in the morning - which he held me to.

He tried to pull the same thing this morning but without the crying - I promptly turned him around and gave him a shove on his butt....It is about one hour before he gets dismissed and no calls from the Social Worker thus far - so we shall see.

Here are some pictures of the first and 2nd day

I also realized that I didn't post the pics of the Christening, so
here they are.


I took the babies to the doctor today. Nicky is 16 pounds exactly and Jenn is 14 pounds 3 ounces. I may have to take Jenn to the dermatologist for her hemangioma because it is irritated and starting to really bother her. I have to do three days of bacitracen (spelling?) and then call the doctor on Monday to let her know how it is - if it isn't any better than I have to take her to the derm.

Jenn's motor skills are more advanced than Nicky's. No surprises there...she is definately her mother's daughter. The doctor is impressed with Jenn's abilities and wrapped around Nicky's finger b/c of that smile.

They each got a shot...Nicky didn't even cry - he winced a little and then gave the nurse a big smile. Jenny, well she screamed her bloody head off!!!! How two babies can be made at the exact same time, be carried for the exact amount of time (save for two minutes) and be raised exactly the same and be TOTALLY different is beyond me!

So that is it! The latest scoop. Talk to everyone soon.
