Too long...

I know it's been a long time since I last posted. Every time I sit down to the computer nothing would come to mind. Then I started feeling hypocritical because I look everyday to see if the blogs I read have been updated without updating my own! The past few weeks have been pretty normal- sleep, eat, daycare, work, eat, sleep, etc. The girls are really growing and pretty much sprint to wherever they are going. They are really at a fun age!

Today they were promoted at daycare to the "1's class". I was a little nervous because they have been with the same teacher since they started 1 year ago. (I can't believe I've been back to work 1 year- at one point I had been on bedrest and maternity leave longer than I had worked!) When I picked the girls up, their new teacher, Miss Veronica, said they had a great day. They were only really fussing at nap time and plyed well with the other kids. I was very excited to hear they had a scheduled "nap time". They will also start to learn colors, shapes, numbers,etc and they are going to teach them Spanish! I was very happy to hear all of this- I really think the structure will be good.

On Friday the girls are having minor surgery to have tubes placed in each ear- that's 4 ears! Gracie is also going to have her adenoids removed to help with all the congestion and runny noses. We haven't heard when they go in- I'll keep y'all posted. We are really excited to get this done and hopefully it will help reduce the number of ear infections. They had their hearing checked at the doctor and both had a decrease because both ears were completely blocked with fluid. The audiologist said that everything they hear is like they are underwater. We also hope that with better hearing their speech will come along.

Other than the surgery we have a pretty normal week. Hope everyone has a great week-
