TWINS, TWINS EVERYWHERE

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008
Today was just a little crazy for all of us! Daddy was still out of town on a business trip and mommy had lots of plans! We started off the day not really going to go anywhere as we were kind of crabby. But, then, within 10 minutes mommy had us dressed, packed up and ready to go! Our first stop was to visit mommy's friend Pam in Columbia, but she was not home. So, we headed to St. Peters, MO for yet another twin playdate! Mommy's friends have taken turns hosting the playdates. We sure wish that we could have one at our house, but I don't think that they would be willing to travel 6 hours for just that!
Our twin friend Evan and Leah along with their mommy, Alicia welcomed us into their home. It took us over an hour to get there, but it was well worth the drive! We had lots of fun!
More twins at the playdate were: Louise and Otis, and their mommy Rebecca and twins, Huck and Frances, and their mommy Kristen.
The whole time, I was thinking, I don't know how anyone could do it with that many babies~
The kids played really well together! It is always fun to see how they interact with other kids as well as new toys! Of course, there were plenty of toys for everyone. However, they all tend to like the same ones :)
We tried getting a group photo of all 8 babies, but it was so hard!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tried my best! I just am happy that I was able to get a good shot of everyone......
Huck, Frances, Otis and Louise went home for lunch and to take a nap. However, since we had plans to meet mommy's teacher friends, we had lunch with Alicia. Both Evan and Leah tried to take a nap, and Addie fell asleep on the floor. However, Alex was awake for the long haul!
We can't wait til our next twin playdate! Thanks again to all of you for letting us play!

Addie was so tired by the time that all the twins went home. While mommy and Alicia had lunch, she slept on the floor for all of 20 minutes.......
Alex loved this bongo drum set! He liked it so much that we bought one of our own yesterday! Addie and Alex have had a good time playing with it at Grandma and Grandpa's house!
Twins: Leah, (Louise and Otis), (Frances and Huck).........
Alex says, "Thanks Evan, for sharing your toys with me".
St. Louis Cardinal Fans!!!!!!!!!!!
We had tried to sit all of the twins up against the couch. But, now that they are mobile, it is just so hard to get 8 of them to line up against the couch and not move. Since Addie and Alex are not sitting on their own yet, they sat in the chairs. We did not want them falling over!
After leaving Alicia's house we went to visit mommy's old school where she taught. The teachers had fun playing with us. We had a tasty dinner at Eileen's house before heading back home. We will be anxious to visit again over Christmas Break!
