Happy Father's Day

So, it's Mark's very first Father's Day. In honor of the special event, we are going out for ribs at Mark's request. One of the perks of being in Buffalo is that there are plenty of rib options. I'm sure that wherever we go will be great.

Yesterday's presentation at the hospital went fine. There were three couples expecting twins. I summarized my experience with the pregnancy and the delivery, though I forewarned them that no one else I know had quite the drama we had. I tried to characterize my experience as the extreme case, and even in the extreme case things turned out well. I don't know if I scared people more than helped or not. I think generally people cringe when they figure out Hank was a traditional delivery but Clara was a c-section. Frankly, I cringe if I think about that part too long.

Today's new food is papaya. I feel kind of like those episodes of Sesame Street where there is a features letter each day. With the food, the kids get at least two days on the new item, but it definitely still seems like a central feature of the day. Papaya was a hit and not nearly as messy as beets.

Time to put away laundry and clean up a bit while the babies are taking their morning nap. I'll post a Father's Day picture later, as we have not yet had today's photo session. Happy Father's Day to all!

Christine!!! I just ran across your blog. Congrats on the twins! They are absolutely adorable and I'm sure you have your hands full. I had a baby boy in February so he's just a few months younger than your two. If you have a free moment (although I'm sure they are few and far between), I'd love to catch up! kelly9@gmail.com
