Kimmie is so sensitive

Friday, August 13th, 2004

Kimberly has had a rash on her bottom that would not go away. I tried many different remedies. Except putting her in a baking soda bath, which my mother swore would fix the problem. At any rate, she had the rash for over a week and being the nervous mother that I am I took [...]

Annie’s first word

Wednesday, August 11th, 2004

I posted a couple of days ago that Kimmie said her first word, Mama. Well, Annie has been saying the same word over and over. It is baby. She says it all the time. It is the cutest thing. I guess she knows she is the baby!

Kimmie is so smart

Tuesday, August 10th, 2004

Kimberly is so smart yesterday she figured out how to pull a tab to make her block jiggle. It is a Baby Einstein block that has a frog on it. When you pull the frog’s leg it jiggles and makes the baby laugh. She was playing independently and figured out how to use her new [...]

My Caring *twins*

Sunday, August 8th, 2004

I went to have the girls picture and the photographer caught the most beautiful picture of them. It really caught their *twinness* They are so caring for each other. Annie was crying and worried and Kimberly reached over and held onto her shoulder. Annie calmed down immediately. I love that they are so close! They [...]

My Silly Billy

Thursday, August 5th, 2004

Every night we feed our girls, give them a bath, and then massage them and get them dressed for bed. Last night Bill was getting Annie ready. Then he took her downstairs to read books with him. I stayed upstairs and rocked and fed Kimberly. Then I fed Annie and rocked her. When I was [...]

Inquiring minds want to know

Wednesday, August 4th, 2004

Inquiring minds want to know! For those of you who are wondering if the Brown family will be kept at 4 or if we are still thinking of making an addition. We have decided that we would like to leave that up to fate. We are so happy and feel so blessed to have our [...]

Makes my heart melt

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2004

This makes my heart melt! Yesterday while I was at the doctor Kimmie saw a picture of me and started calling for Mama!!! Bill showed her other pics but she did not want anything to do with them. Just Mama! I cannot believe how lucky I am! She says Mama all the time but I [...]

Kimberly is 9 months old

Saturday, July 17th, 2004

Kimberly turned 9 months old today. This is quite bittersweet. She is in such a rush to grow up. She will probably be walking before her first birthday. I love to see her grow and learn new things but, don’t want to loose my baby. I guess I still have Annie. 12 days until she [...]

Swimming Lessons

Monday, May 31st, 2004

Today the girls had their first swim lessons. They did pretty well. Many were worried that Bill and I would not do well with the strictness of the teacher. But we handled it quite well. As a teacher myself, I know how it is to hold your students up to high standards. I was happy [...]

Whininess Ensues

Thursday, May 20th, 2004

Kimberly is cutting her first tooth. Oddly enough it is the exact same one that Annie cut first. I think this may be why Kimberly has been so whiny lately. She has also started to have stranger anxiety. Whenever someone tries to touch her or pick her up she climbs up me. Annie is still [...]

Baby Names

Monday, May 10th, 2004

Phew! Looks like we missed the top 10 with both girls’ names.

Annie has a rash

Tuesday, April 6th, 2004

Annie has had this mysterious rash that began on her neck and then started to spread to her arms and torso. I took her to the Doctor yesterday and he said that it was just heat rash. He suggested I try to keep her dry. Hmm, that is not such an easy task with Princess [...]

Forgot Something

Wednesday, March 31st, 2004

I forgot two recent developments: Kimberly now wakes up at 6 a.m. every morning no matter how late or early she stays up the night before. I guess she’s going to be a morning person. Kimberly has developed an utter fascination with animals. If our cat Darla enters her frame of awareness, she’ll immediately focus [...]

Everything Trixie

Saturday, March 27th, 2004

The Trixie Update: I never thought to keep statistics on Annie and Kimberly. Drat! I wish I had.

What Could Have Been

Sunday, March 14th, 2004

Today would have been Elizabeth’s first birthday, according to her due date of March 14, 2003. For those unfamiliar with our history, Elizabeth Irene Brown was the daughter we never had. She miscarried on August 19, 2002 after four months of gestation. We eagerly awaited the ultrasound that would tell us her gender; we found [...]

Crawling????

Thursday, March 11th, 2004

I thought that I should post this news. The girls are beginning to crawl. Or so my husband and mother think. Pretty much they get their back legs under them and then push off. Generally, they have their face down so they end up crying from skidding on their faces. I am not sure that [...]

Not Much to Report

Monday, March 8th, 2004

There’s not much to report today. The Girls are doing great and are getting better and better about sleeping by themselves in their cribs. I’m getting better at watching them while Sandi takes her aerobics class and other activities. The first floor of our house looks like a tornado hit a nearby Babies ‘R’ Us [...]

four month update

Sunday, February 29th, 2004

Kimberly and Annie have turned four months old now! It is so hard to believe but they are in a hurry to grow up. Annie is able to roll over from her front to her back very consistently. What I really mean is that whenever you place her on her back, she will roll to [...]

Mommy was sick!!!

Thursday, February 26th, 2004

Mommy was sick!!! The past two days I have been really under the weather. I went to the doctor yesterday and found out that I have a monster case of strep throat. I am beginning to feel better today. Thankfully Daddy has been able to stay home and help out however, the babies are so [...]
