Pizza! Pizza!

We just got a Little Ceaser's in the area and I am estatic! The pizza is fine, but the Crazy Bread is beyond words, the kids were big fans of the bread too!

Late Night with Ethan Barker

After my double header softball game, I got home late only to find someone waiting for me....Ethan! Apparantly he was not tired and did not want to go to bed. It is hard to tell, but he was actually really happy and giggling when I took this picture. The flash made him squint. Eventually I was too tired and put him down. Thankfully he was fine for the rest of the night.

Finally! We Can Play With the Keyboards

Today the twins went to visit Patrick at his office. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't suceed in baby proofing his office. Luckily they have used computer parts galore, so it wasn't too difficult digging up some fun stuff to distract the twins from all of the wires.

A Bit of Italian for Dinner with Family

Nonie and Rhonda came down last night to watch the kids today while Patrick, Michael, and I ran the ACT. Rhonda was up from Kentucky to visist my mom after her graduation. Congrats Rhonda! We went to Buca's for dinner that night. There was a small wait that turned into a huge one so the twins got a little crazy.

Once we were sat, they were all smiles. They LOVE pasta! After dinner Nonie and Rhonda headed back to Urbana.

15 Month Checkup

Today we took the kids to the doctor for their 15 month checkup, almost a month late.... Here are the stats:

Ethan:

Weight 21lbs 6 oz (7.8%)

Height 29.5 inches (4%)

Head Circumference 18.5 inches (38%)

Elaine:

Weight 21 lbs 8 oz (22%)

Weight 30 inches (25%)

Head Circumference 18.5 inches (75%)

After the doctor's appointment, the twins got visitors. Friends of ours, Brian and Jen Russell, came over. They are expecting boy/girl twins later this summer. I was amazed, the twins were so warm to them. Usually they are very shy around strangers, but they loved hanging out with them. Ethan even let Brian hold him a few times!

Bring On the Heat!

After Uncle Don, Aunt Cate, and George left we relaxed, had lunch and they went down for a nap. We ran a few errands later in the afternoon and spent the rest of the day in the yard playing. The kids had a blast....especially after we showed them their surprise we picked up for them at the store. A POOL!

We didn't fill it up since it was almost dinner time, but the kids still had a great time.
