Mike works Sundays, so He gets Mondays off. We usually wake up late (well, as late as the girls let us.) Eat breakfast together and put the girls down for naps. Then I get to steal away to the gym for a nice break. We spend the rest of the day around the house. Completing some chores here and there but mostly just being a family.
Today, however, was not particularly enjoyable. Both girls woke up barley able to breathe. mucous pouring from their noses and spent most the day on the verge of miserable. As well as Mike and I both began the day complaining of sore throats which only worsened as the day progressed.
I’m still thankful today was Monday. Being outnumbered by two sick 7 months old doesn’t sound fun at all. At least Daddy was here to lend an extra hand or two. Here’s hoping they wake-up in a better mood tomorrow.
In years past I’ve always looked forward to “falling back” It means an extra hour of sleep before Church, well that is what it meant last year anyway. This year we have babies. Babies are not enlightened about the extra hour of sleep given to us this one night a year. And of course on this longest day of the year, Emberlyn is sick. She has spent a majority of the day whining or screaming and has not slept longer than an hour at a time. This means that extra hour, will now make what promises to be a very looong night, the quite possibly the longest sleepless night of my life.
* Update- Very Little Sleep from 9:00pm to 2:30am. She then slept from 2:30 till 6:30am (7:30 am without accounting for the time change.) That’s a new record of 5 hours!! Way to go Emmie!!
Seeing as how we are terrible at updating our blog I’ve decided to participate in NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month)
I’m going to post an entry everyday of November! (better late than never: )
Today I took the girls to the park to meet up with some of our friends in our twin group. We were the youngest of the four sets ( the others were around 9 months) I could see the girls being inspired to crawl as they watched the other kids roam from blanket to blanket. This is a milestone I’m not quite sure how I feel about yet. With each one they’ve reached so far it’s only enhanced our relationship, the first smile, first laugh, rolling over. But CRAWLING!! YIKES!!! I’m excited for them to be able to explore the world in a new way, to be able to get to things they want to see. However, this will mean that when I put them down and walk away, they will not necessarily be there when I return! It means baby proofing and worrying if there are choking hazards. I suppose it also means one step closer to Toddler-hood, which I can not wait for! Do you have any idea how fun it will be to watch these two little beings grow into little people with thoughts and dreams and questions.. oh no so many questions to come.. the “whys” times two!
Sidenote: Emmie’s first tooth popped up yesterday!
Welcome to the new Rosowski Family webpage. We felt that it wasn’t fair to only post on gwenandmike.com. (not that we were keeping it current anyways) We needed a new site that can track our whole family: Mike, Gwen, Ainsley, Emberlyn, and London. Now I am sure you will see a whole lot more about our darling twin girls then you will about us. And of course, our Chinese Crested dog, London, is sure to try his best to stay active in any photo or daily activity. He refuses to let us forget that he was the “firstborn”
Anyways, welcome to the new site and be prepared for lots of pictures and updates on our growing girls!
To the right will be the most current photos uploaded to our Flickr photo site. Click on one to visit it and see all 500+ of our photos!!
