Just in last two weeks, January 18, 2008

Before being a mother, I always thought that parents should be all happy to see their children growing up, but ....

In the last two weeks, my boys moved out of their cribs and also no bottles any more for them. Of course, these were our decisions but still, we thought they were ready for moving to the next steps, because they are not babies any more.

Today I wanted to take my boys to children museum of Salem. I couldn't find a parking spot close enough to the museum and had to walk a little. I thought to not take the stroller and let my boys walk with me. I was holding their little hands which were warmer than mine and walked all the way from where i parked my car to the museum. When I was crossing street with them I was thinking Oh, my God ! these are my little boys walking with me, passing all the ice and puddles with me

Yes, I can never hold my sons like how I used to when they were little babies, but it doesn't mean that I am not going to enjoy every stage that they are growing into

Meeting Daddy Jerry and Mom Garnett for the first time, January 13, 2008

We had a wonderful time with Michael's father and his wife. They both are really warm and loving people and lots of love for our sons. Relic and River both enjoyed playing with grandpa and listening to Mimi reading stories to them. They also enjoyed playing with her walker ! What a great toy for them ! And Mimi was a typical grandmother who was spoiling River and Relic with gifts and candies and giving them ride with her walker.

I do feel happy and proud to have such a wonderful people as my relatives

Last night, we put the boys in their actual bed. Maybe not, because they both slept in one bed. We thought it was a little early to trust them for sleeping in the top bed of their bunk bed.

My boys are growing up faster than I want.... We put the cribs away to give them to a friend who just gave birth to her second child.
