A couple of afternoons of just me, the boys, and helmets

So far the boys don't seam too upset about the helmets. They had a pretty cranky day yesterday, but they were cranky all day, even during the times when the helmets were off. I think the crankiness is more from the teething than it is from the helmets. Kevin still is not eating very good On a side note I need to do some more research on this because the feeding schedule we have the boys on does not appear to be anything like the one that came from some company( Gerber or Good Start) . And Alex has gotten really stuff today.

Jamie works noon-4ish Wed-Fri this week. Since we wanted to keep the boys home I am attempting to work from home this week. Yesterday I literally did not have any time while Jamie was at work to get any work done. The only time there wasn't at least one boy crying was during Alex's first feeding, and that was just because Kevin was sleeping and Alex loves food. Since Kevin is not such a big fan of food right now he cries through his feedings.

Today went much better. The boys napped good. Then they played good. Then they ate. The eating still didn't go great, in fact the first feeding was mostly just the food then they refused to eat the bottles. Then the second feeding went pretty well. They actually played in their bouncy toys and on the playmat for quite a while by themselves today. I still had to go and occupy them for a while, but its always fun to get a little alone time with the boys. There was minimal crying but boy when Kevin cries he doesn't just cry he screams.

Tomorrow we are up to 6 hours at a time with the helmets on. That is actually a good thing. The only time the boys really get mad at the helmets is when we have to take them off or put them on. So the less we have to do that the better. Hopefully the next 2.5 months keep going like this.
