Still Going Strong

Sorry it has been awhile since we last posted anything, but with Joe in school and Karen busy with the girls, we don't have much time lately. When we do have time, we are usually too tired. Things are going well around here. Last week the girls were switched to Prilosec for their reflux and have been doing great on it. It is amazing to see what "normal" babies are supposed to be like. Since Ryan was constantly fussy, we don't really know how to react when our baby girls just sit there contently in their bouncy seats, without crying. Sleeping is going a lot better with the new medicine, and we hope it continues to get better in the future weeks.

In case any of you didn't get the memo, Joe got accepted to both pharmacy schools in Chicago and Phoenix. Since Arizona is a accelerated 3-year school and Chicago is a standard 4-year school, Arizona is the best choice for us. Joe looks forward to starting school in the fall and is so happy to finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. He will graduate with the class of 2010. Joe is currently in his final prerequisite course at Cal State Fullerton and thankful he doesn't have to take a full load this semester. The two classes he is taking is keeping him busy enough so there isn't much time left to waste. We plan to move to Phoenix area in June or July, but could be August at the latest. School starts after Labor Day, so we have to be there by then.

Ryan is still doing quite well with the girls and loves to help out. He is such a good helper as he takes the 12-14 diapers a day and puts them in the trash for mommy and daddy. We don't sense any jealously yet, but he does have a hard time understanding the idea of being "gentle" with the babies. If they could go on a wagon ride tomorrow..Ryan would surely take them! He loves to have them part of his busy day.

Well, that about sums up the last week. Thanks for coming to see our blog and hope to see you around here again real soon. You know what they say..."Come see us today...sometin good's gonna happen to you!"---Neil Norton the great prognosticator.

Kaylee: "Renee! Look...Daddy took off his hat! Where did his hair go?"
Renee: "Daddy should really keep his hat on"
Karen showing off her her tetris skills when putting the girls down for a nap.
This was supposed to be bath time for Renee only...Ryan just decided to join in on the fun. Thankfully he took his clothes off first.
Renee: "So I look like you and you look like me?"
Kaylee: "Ya...kinda weird huh?"
Ryan didn't want to be left out of nap time.

You have some great pictures again. I can't believe how Kaylee and Renee are changing. At what age do boys learn the meaning of "gentle"? I'm counting down the days!
Lots of love,
Jane
