KAMOM Santa Brunch & Grandparents

I joined Kingwood Area Mom of Multiples over the summer after learning about the group through my pediatrician’s office. They offer a bunch of “Moms Night Out”, family events and hold a monthly meeting. So far I have made it to one meeting in 6 months and we made it to our first family event. The Santa Brunch was super cute but of course Jason & Reece will enjoy the tradition more in the years to come when they can make crafts, eat goodies and decorate cookies and actually understand the concept of Santa. There were about 20 set of twins running around all over the place and parents trying to chase after their two kids. It was rather funny and just a small taste of what I have to look forward to in the years to come. There was a set of twin girls named Kate and Reece. The Mom brought Kate over and said look that baby is named Reece too and the little girl looked at Jason with a puzzled face and said in a questioning voice “Kate?”. I guess that just goes to show twins think that even their names come together in a package deal.

We got to see Santa and snap some pictures of the boys. Of course we couldn’t get them both looking because they were too preoccupied with checking out all the action that was going on around them. We didn’t mess with Santa pictures at the mall this year (have you seen the lines there? Santa is on popular man!) but will give it a shot next year!

Since we were in the Kingwood area we ended up swinging by grandma Judi & Papa Tom’s house on our way home which turned into a long extended stay and us getting home after dark. Ryan’s Dad and family were there and we also got to see Ryan’s sister and some of the family friends. That evening Ryan and I left J&R with the adults for about an hour while we grabbed dinner, a little coffee and drove around kingwood with Ryan’s stepsister, KK. It was pretty comical to watch Ryan interact with a older child. He is so good with them and truly knows how to get them laughing; however, I worry what kind of trouble my big kid is going to get into with my little kids. He busted out singing “Party In the USA” by Miley and was driving thru the big puddles in Kingwood for laughs from KK. When we got her home I told her parents if she is up all night from the hot chocolate with extra whip cream, and sprinkles and asks to go driving thru puddles it’s not my fault! Here are some pictures from our day:

Round One of Gifts

The boys got their first round of Christmas presents with their visit from Meme and PawPaw who came out to visit for a few hours today since they can’t make it on the 23rd. Jason and Reece have had fun with their new toys and clothes! Something tells me before the holidays are over I will need more hangers in the boys closet and a playroom!

I LOVE WEEKENDS

Oh how I LLLOOOOVVVEEEEE the weekends. My sister came in Thursday and between her and my Mom I got a huge break and now have a clean house and much needed rest. Yesterday morning I took Reece to the doctor just to make such I shouldn’t worry. His breathing was rather noisy and I just wanted to make sure everything was ok and luckily it was. Our Doctor said that its just from the reflux and all of that mess just trying to clear out of his system after it happens. His lungs sounded healthy and clear and his oxygen level was at 98% which is great.


As for the rest of my day I am printing off our ornaments, laminating and hanging. I hope to post pictures of our Christmas tree soon! Thank you to everyone who has sent one and if you haven’t its not too late yet! I just love the holidays. Usually I am not so much into it, but this year it has been relaxing to turn the lights on and a little Christmas music. Tomorrow I am baking for a cookie exchange with KAMOM. Yay…Mommy is getting out of the house for a little bit!

Enjoy your weekend everyone and great big birthday wishes to Grandma Judi tomorrow is her birthday!
