we've moved!

We finally have made it up to VA and wanted to let everyone know that we made it...safe and sound. The babies did a great job on the 12hr drive... (I am soooo proud of them!)

We are in the midst of boxes and the usual "moving" stuff...(i.e. that includes having the cabinet moved higher up so that the fridge can fit under it, hot water (yikes!) figuring out how to pull Lou's car into a driveway that has a major dip (which scrapes the bottom of the volvo) - oh, and electrcity in our bathroom!) Not to mention fighting with the phone co. to give us back the number they gave us weeks ago (which we printed on cards to be mailed out) and to turn our phone on... (and on and on and on)

As soon as we get settled (how long will that take?!?!?!) I will post some pictures from the move and of the new house.

Hope everyone is doing well!!!!

Our first trip to a hotel...and what an experience!! You would have thought that we were packed for the week and not overnight with all the clothes, bottles, formula, gallons of water (for the formula) and toys.... but the babies sure seemed to enjoy it....see below :)

It was soooo nice to see Aunt Hilary, Uncle Rob, cousin Thomas....and the whole Keberdle gang!


ALL SMILES.....babies in pack in play (in the hotel room) after a LONNNNG morning of being cramped in their car seats on the car drive up! They are such troopers!



basking in the sun by the pool... gabby, mateo, mary

6mo yesterday!!! 6/7/07

I can't believe that the babies are six months old already!!! Wow has time flown by.... Eventually, I will have to figure out what that equates to in formula, breast milk, and diapers!!! Ounces upon endless ounces of milk....and thousands of diapers!!!!

The babies are doing well and have their 6mo appt next Friday...will post their new weights and sizes then.

Thought you would enjoy a "before" and "after" picture in celebration of the big event!


BEFORE: Mary, Mateo, Gabby

AFTER: Gabby, Mary, Mateo....with a big bowl of ice cream to celebrate the 1/2 birthday... (and they "eyed" me the whole time I ate it for them! )

head-shoulders-knees-and-toes...TOES!

They may not know their heads, shoulders, or knees but they sure know their TOES! Both the girls have found them and are constantly holding their precious little feet! Mary has also started to make the razzzzberry sounds!



Gabby and her TOES
Mary and her TOES!

Who needs to find their toes when I can have much MORE fun in the jumperoo! - Mateo


My future's so bright, I gotta wear....shades! - Mary


Now that we are starting to recognize each other...we are constantly pulling, kicking, or touching the other one!
