Brodie and I went for blood work Tuesday morning.  His iron level was improved to 5.5.  Normal is 11.  He is still severe, but improved.  His 2nd stool sample came back + for blood.  Now he has been referred to a gastroentologist.  They think he may have a food...

Brodie, Lucas, and I appeared on the 8 AM segment of Good Day Sacramento Sunday morning, June 15th.  Brodie and Lucas are officially TV Stars!  They didn't appear nervous at all.  Once they were buckled into their bike trailer, they thought they were going on just another bike...

More than 3000 women of all ages ran or walked around the Capitol this morning at the Nike Women's Fitness Festival and 5K race.  The event raised money for the non-profit organization WEAVE (Women Escaping A Violent Environment).  I ran the 5K pushing Brodie and Lucas in their double...

The cost of gas has pushed me over the edge. As a result I decided to make a change.  I can't control the cost of gas, but I can control how often I drive.  So my goal is to drive my car less: no more than 2 times Mon-Fri and once during the weekend.  It's possible to get out of...

I pumped before going to bed Friday night.  I was shocked and slightly panicked when all I got was 4 ml.  I usually get at least 5 oz.   I checked the freezer for my back up supply and found 10 oz.  After reading the dates, I sadly had to throw it away, as it was almost 6...

If only I had another set of hands, I would have taken a picture of myself feeding Brodie and Lucas dinner with 3 spoons.  But with only 6 hands, they were all at work.  Lucas ate like a big boy, when in reality he has only been eating this way for about 3 weeks.   Today he...

Brodie and Lucas woke up at 4:45 AM.  I would have rather stayed in bed sleeping.  After changing diapers ad nursing the kids, Brodie fell back asleep!  No such luck with Lucas.  He was wide awake and doing baby acrobatics rolling all over the family room floor. At 6:00 AM I...

My twins are now 9 months old.  Lucas is finally rolling.  One day last week he started rolling left.  He rolled left for a couple of days, and suddenly, he was rolling everywhere, left, right, with or without his hands full of toys.  Brodie can roll.  I've seen him do...

Their last feeding was 7:30 AM.  By the time I packed their diaper bag and ice chest, it was 8 AM before I left the house.  As I drove up Hwy 80 to Foresthill, I couldn't stop obsessing about what time they would get hungry again.  Was my husband going to be able to handle the...

Saturday morning 5 sets of twins and their moms met at Oki Park to play.  Some of us just met that day, and some of us had not seen each other since we were in the hospital after delivering our twins last August 2007.  The twins ranged in age from 3 months to close to one...

The twins are sick.  I thought they were just teething.  And maybe they are, but in addition, they are also sick.  I called and spoke with another Sutter Medical Group advice nurse for the second time in 24 hours.  Today she recommended the twins be seen by their pediatrician...

Three days and one night in Cool, CA.  I was the kitchen coordinator/team support for our cycling race team.  Which meant I was responsible for coordinating the kitchen set up and break down, as well as ensuring we had the necessary cooking supplies and gear.  I also planned the...

Monday late afternoon while I was blogging, my twins were playing in their exersaucers.  Every time Lucas or Brodie made one of their toys play music we all danced.  Brodie stopped moving mid music and I heard him load up his diaper.   I took immediate action, but it was still...

I have a confession to make.  This morning I was frustrated with my husband after our sleepless night.  So when he walked out the door to leave for work, I ate his chocolate cupcake.  He had been saving it for the last couple of days, but had not yet eaten it.  His cupcake had...

Ever since Brodie started eating solids, his sleep at night has changed for the worse.  I went to bed at 8 PM hoping to get some extra sleep, knowing we were probably going to have another sleepless night.  Brodie woke up crying at 9:30 PM, 12:30 AM, and 3 AM.  Lucas woke up at 4...
