4th of July 2012

This years 4th of July was the Twins first one.!

On Tuesday after Doug and I both got off work we packed the kids and car and headed down to the farm for a little BBQ and Family time!

The kids were passed around all night and were good for the most part considering they didn't have naps.

Lilly now that is a different story, right now she is in the stranger danger stage and if she don't know you or has never seen you and you hold her be prepared because she is going to cry.

Around 8 or so which is pretty much the kiddos bed time they both got really fussy so I rocked them to sleep and laid them in the outdoor bed I bought for them. Bryce slept the whole night until we left around 10. Lilly only for a hour in her car seat.

But all the way home they slept and as soon as we got home they got their diapers change and Jammie's on and never woke up and went right to their beds with no problems. Which made for happy parents since Doug was a little drunk and tired and momma was tired. Off to bed we went.

Thursday the 4th we actually didn't go anywhere or do much. For one it was like 110 degrees out. We got up around 8 or so ate breakfast and then woke the kiddos up fed them their breakfast and played with them till they napped around 1 or so. From there we picked up and cleaned the house. After we was done Doug decided to nap himself so while everyone was sleeping I headed to the grocery store and grab dinner (Crab Legs) on my way home I noticed they were still setting up for the fireworks. And let me tell you Doug's cousin who had twins a month after me took them kids and went to the park with all the rides etc. And we found out last night the her son was dehydrated and overheated from being out there that they had to admit him into the hospital last night. Now I am not saying Aubrey is a bad mommy but I would never take my little ones out in that heat for that long.

After I got home Doug and I started dinner and while they were cooking we fed the twins some foods and then ate dinner ourselves. After everyone was done the kids played and Doug and I watched TV till dark. Bryce laid down for his nap around 7 and was still asleep when they started the fireworks so Doug, Lilly and I went out on the deck to watch them. But the mosquitoes were eating Doug and Me's feet so bad they we set lets go in, next year will be better as the kids will be older and understand and enjoy it more so we can take them to see them. We headed in and watch them on TV sponsored by Macy's. after they were all over Doug and I headed to bed as we had to go back to work, which let me tell you it made it feel like it was Monday all over again.

So today (Friday) does not feel like Friday at all, but I am so glad it is as we have a fun filled weekend planned. That's for the next post!
