After a few “heavy” blog posts this week… how about some fun videos of my twin boys?
I wish I had my Flip Camera nearby, but instead I used my iPhone to grab some video of my boys having a great time playing on their play mat yesterday afternoon.
Enjoy!
BTW… seeing the “related videos” on YouTube that automatically post next to these videos makes me really thankful for Vimeo. Now I just need a good app on my phone that will post to Vimeo instead of YouTube… (and someone to sponsor a Vimeo Plus account for me :-))
When I was a teenager, my dad would often wake me with a jovial rendition of songs about how wonderful a day it was and how we should be thankful for everything and how beautiful the sky was…etc., etc., etc.
You get the picture?
They were just the sort of songs you don’t want sung to you when you’re NOT a morning person and you’re trying to sleep until the very last minute possible.
It makes me smile when my boys give me reactions similar to what I gave my dad, whenever I wake them from their morning stupor and start changing their diaper (IDiddy especially).
My only fear is that I’ll come in one morning and they’ll try and zing me by quoting a Proverb like…
If anyone loudly blesses their neighbor early in the morning, it will be taken as a curse. (Prov. 27:14)
…because I’ll doubt I’ll be able to fire back another zinger as fast as my dad did about being a lazy sluggard.
How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? (Prov. 6:9)
The craving of a sluggard will be the death of him, because his hands refuse to work. (Prov. 21:25)
YouVersion just doesn’t work that fast on my phone.
We caught IDiddy in an unusually happy mood yesterday afternoon before his 1 p.m. feeding.
Had to catch it on video and share…
He’s a great baby (they both are), but you can tell his reflux and feeding issues really affect him. He’s calm, quiet and loves to smile, except for during his flareups.
To combat his issues…
We have him on two doses of Zantac (1 mL each dose).
Two doses of Prevacid Solutabs (7.5 mL each dose).
He’s eating Elecare (a lactose free, amino-acid based, hypo-allergenic, expensive formula) with each feeding.
We’re adding a tablespoon of rice cereal to each 5 oz. bottle.
It’s hard to believe it was two months ago (Oct. 21 at 2:36 p.m.) that we were welcoming them into the world. They’ve grown and changed so much since then… it’s been a tiring two months but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Continue reading Adventures in Fatherhood: Our boys are two months old!
