Chuck D & Mr. T

Charlie had Christmas on the brain. He asks me about four times a day “when can we get one of those circles? I need one of those circles!” He is talking about wreaths.

Last night Charlie kept yelling “what does Teddy realize? What does he realize?” Good question but I really had no answer.

Scottie and Nell are five months today (Nell on left, Scottie on right).

Teddy wanted mento play mommy bad dog and baby bad dog with him. Where did he even hear about bad dogs?

The girls had their first thanksgiving with football and donuts in Montrose then Johanna,Barclay, Georgia, Brendan, Colin, Siri, Tina, Kitsy Cat and Hon John for dinner.

Last night at dinner I asked Charlie what he was thankful for. He replied “I’m thankful for these babies.” I’m really thankful for that.

Again today Teddy painted himself with Desitin diaper cream while he was supposed to be napping. He gets it everywhere- in his hair, blankets, behind his ears. At least he doesn’t spread it on the walls and top it off with baby powder like Deirdre and I did when we were 3 and 4. I will never forget getting in trouble for that. I think it was possibly the most trouble I have ever been in.

Teddy told me to give Nell a toy. We are making progress.

Nell does lots of crunches all day bringing her head up to her legs. I wish I had that ab strength. And Scottie wiggled and kicks her legs all the time. Nell has been sleeping on her side for a couple nights and now Scottie has started. Such advances. (Scottie on the left, Nell on the right).

Such fuzzy heads on these babies. I love it.
