Stomach Crunches

We made it back from Aunt Tiffany's house with no drama. YEA!!!! The car didn't laugh at me and I didn't have to walk. All considered it was a good trip.

Jake wanted to work off some of his dinner so he did some stomach crunches in Aunt Tiffany's Ab Lounge. I'm not sure they named that correctly because you certainly don't let your abs lounge while you're using it. Maybe it's because after you use it all you can do is lounge your abs. I do believe it was modeled after a medieval torture device commonly referred to as The Rack.

FEEL THE BURN!

Keeping with the theme of exercise we also pulled out the Pilate's ball or as I like to call it the dodge ball from hell. The boys love this thing.

Then Aunt Tiffany gave the boys half of an uncrustable and let them loose in her house. Apparently she thinks they are capable of eating these without getting jelly & peanut butter everywhere. I managed to head off disaster by herding them into the kitchen and taking the soggy uncrustables away. I fed it to them a small piece at a time.

It's a little tough watching twins at someone else's house unless they also have little kids. Aunt Tiffany didn't really believe that until yesterday. Right before we left she looked at me and said "Wow! You have your hands full" Well. I wouldn't have it any other way.

The boys and I drove home about 8pm and they stayed awake the whole time even though it was past their bedtime. When we got home I put Jake in the house and went back to get Zack. When I came back in Jake was crying. I picked him up and he laid his head on my shoulder and hugged my neck. As soon as I put him down to change he started crying again. He was one tired kid. Of course, Zack was ready to play. They went down really easy and I tried to relax the rest of the night. Of course, I didn't sleep well. I don't think I'm used to sleeping alone any more.

We miss you Momma!
