Journal Entry
Sick days!
Since last week the girls have been struck with some new ailments, including another bout of ear infections, leaving them coughing and home with me, who’s fighting off a cold of some sort as well.
After an exciting day Tuesday of Xrays and blood drawing, the girls are on antibiotics and breathing treatments, which they find teethingly fun.
So this is day 4 of the girls spending time chillaxin’ in the crib (well, in their cribs when its nap time) with daddy.
Needless to say, little writing has gotten done. But that’s okay, they’re getting better, and that’s what’s the most important.
Which reminds me: it’s time for me to make a Dr. appt to make sure I don’t have what they have, that way I don’t reinfect them once they get better.

Hope you all mend soon. We’re passing things around here, too. ‘Tis the season, I suppose.

Must have been a big crib, to fit Daddy in, too!

Warning, this picture exceeds the alloted cuteness quotient. You will be fined 5 “awwwws” a day.

Darn cute!
BTW, I’m soon to be a dad to twins and have been polling parents of twins: did you guys make any effort to sync their sleeping cycles. It’s a bizarre (and kind of cruel-sounding) idea to me, but a couple of couples have told us that they did this…
