A Sad Farewell

The next door neighbors moved last Saturday, but today is the last day that they officially own the house. We will miss them being next door very much. Joe will especially miss them coming up this spring. He used to love running around in their yard with their kids, playing ball and exploring their garage. Today is a sad day.

We started our day at the doctor’s office – Patrick and Luke’s 4-month appointments. Patrick was first to be examined, and about 2 seconds before the doctor came in, he totally filled his pants – all the way to the top! While I was trying to clean up the mess (in front of the doctor, of course) he peed all over! We even had to change the exam table paper. How embarrassing. And to complete the triple play, as soon as I picked him up off of the table, he yarfed all over my shoulder. Lovely.

After all of that excitement, I can report that Patrick has surpassed Luke in weight by 6 oz. They are in the 50th percentile in height and head circumference and close to 50 in weight. Yay! It’s nice to know they’ve caught up after their small start. Oh, and they got shots. It made for a rather unpleasant afternoon. Poor boys.

On a lighter note, Joe now laughs at me whenever I trip or drop something. He thinks it’s SO funny to watch mom mess up. I’m pretty clumsy, so he gets many hearty chuckles everyday.
