amuse bouche

By the grace of several items, some gorgeous weather, and awesome furnace repair men we have survived, nay, enjoyed our first few days at home. Thanks to Bel Red heating, for coming out within hours of my call to troubleshoot the furnace. It turned out to have an incredibly obscure part malfunctioning, but they super quick ordered it and the came right back out today to install it. The house is toasty again!


And huge thanks to Regan, who had a baby swing she was parting with and brought it over last night. That thing is like voodoo magic for babies, especially ones who needs to sit upright for at least a half hour after eating to avoid meals coming back up. Then there's amazon fresh, of course, who recently started delivering to our zip code. This is huge for people who live in a house and can't even get a pizza delivered. I think I startled the delivery man this morning around 4 am when I opened the door and thanked him for the boxes. Methinks he usually doesn't see anyone on his pre dawn rounds.

Then there's these snazzy amuse bouche. The boys learned to love pacifiers while in the hospital, but they don't have the oral dexterity to keep them in their mouths very well. This can lead to some empty-mouthed freak outs. The lion and giraffe are like very lightweight beanie babies. Just enough to provide a little support for an uncoordinated suck ,but light enough that the boys can spit them out if they really want to.


Finally, I have found something on the boys that looks like it came from me. Up till now they've been miniature Charlies. But if you look closely, we have the same ears.

You still have the cutest ears, but you now have a serious competitor.
