Sunshine!

It's so how funny how the sun changes our entire routine!  Especially in Seattle, when we have a sunny weekend we have to seize the day!  We have been to the park, eating ice cream, on wagon rides and today to a BBQ with wonderful friends. The twins even enjoyed a dip in their little baby pool! My only regret is that Tate was a grump all afternoon-crying, whining and generally miserable.  They just don't like to do their afternoon nap at other people's houses?  They hardly sleep and then are monsters. I feel so bad, but don't want to run home either. I think they still had fun, but Tate went to bed about 45 min early, just exhausted.  

My new concern is how to navigate this whole baby feeding thing. I am not a great cook and just don't know what in general to feed these guys! We are trying a  lot of things my friends are suggesting, but I don't know. Tonight they basically ate a big pile of mixed veggies. Is that bad? I made some noodles (plain because I couldn't stand another night of cleaning up tomato sauce this week), but they wanted nothing to do with them. They spat them out over and over. Darn, I thought that was going to be an easy dinner fix!  I did ravioli last night with mixed reviews, but seriously, SUCH A MESS! Am I being unrealistic or should I just expect every meal time is going to be like that? Just when i think I have once stage down, these kiddos throw me for a loop. The good news is that we are totally off bottles and formula since a few days ago. We just stopped giving it once our stockpile ran out and they haven't seemed to care in the slightest! Wahoo! I was so nervous about that transition!
