Bath time! The boy's first bath in a real tub in early July.

Father's / Mother's Day

Life changed in the month between. For the better.

Paradox

Somehow two top bananas found their way into our house.*

*I promise, no more matching outfits but aren't these just the best?

Now We Get To The Fun Part

By which I mean two healthy, fully interactive kids at home. This was probably the first day Colin and Nicholas actually played together. Pretty good stuff here.

Travel Tips

Boy, these car seats are something. Two minutes and it's lights out. This was the first joint visit to the pediatrician, so we're settling into normalcy around mid-June. Colin is beginning to be able to do his Brando.

Oh, So This Is Our Life Now. Got It.

We were numb and zonked for the first couple of weeks with both boys in the house. And we didn't even have them from newborn! I wouldn't wish our full experience on anyone, but we did ease in rather than getting slammed immediately. Which makes for an odd, somewhat jaundiced (get it? jaundiced? ha ha...) take on the first couple months; we'll tell you about it sometime.

The Wristbands Come Off

Here the boy (other boy) comes home, finally. The days before we had done some full family visits in the hospital. This is on or about 6/11/09.

Save Me!

Joel is adamantly opposed to the posing of children, but he may have to rethink.

That Guy. Yeah, Over There.
