Day in the Life September 2008

Date	Milestone
September 1, 2008	Trey and Bella helped Grandmom pack Doggy Jules' things to take to her new house. We will miss Grandmom and Doggy Jules!
September 3, 2008	Trey and Bella had their 3 year photos taken today. They turned out great! They both did a wonderful job posing for the camera!
September 4, 2008	Happy 3rd Birthday Trey and Bella! We had a nice day today at Storybook Land! All 3 kids had lots of fun on the rides! Then it was off to the Doctors office to have Bella's eye checked out (Pirate sword accident between Evan, Bella and Trey). All is well! Bella is 23 pounds and Trey is 28 pounds (with shoes on).
September 6, 2008	Trey and Bella had a very nice Birthday party despite hurricane Hannah's arrival. We had the party inside and many friends and family members came to celebrate with us. Trey and Bella were also very spoiled with gifts!
September 7, 2008	Happy Birthday to Trey and Bella's Great Grandmom Thackray! We had a lovely day today re-organizing the playroom to fit all of Trey and Bella's new things!
September 8, 2008	Trey and Bella enjoyed Gymnastics today. They are doing well in the big kid class.
September 9, 2008	Trey and Bella had their 3 year check up today. Dr. Dave said they are doing fantastic! Trey is 26 1/2 pounds, which puts him in the 5-10th percentile. He is 36 inches tall, which puts him in the 25th percentile. Bella is 23 1/2 pounds, which still puts her below the growth chart, which seems to be genetic for her. She is 34 inches tall, which puts her in the 5-10th percentile! Dr. Dave was very impressed that they can both sing their ABCs, know their colors, letters & sounds, how to spell their names, and count. He said they are both very ahead of the intellectual curve! Oh, and he was impressed that they are both potty trained! Trey and Bella also each listened to Dr. Dave's heart and declared him to be healthy!
September 11, 2008	Isabella had her first dance class of the year today. She did wonderfully! She went with Miss Vanessa and never looked back for Mommy at all! Trey stayed home with Daddy and rode in his car!
September 13, 2008	Mommy and Daddy took Trey and Bella to the mall today to look for new shoes for Trey (Bella already has hers) and Halloween costumes! Bella wants to be Dora for Halloween. We were unable to find a costume that fit her so we got orange shorts and a pink shirt and then ordered a backpack from the internet. We still have to find yellow socks and determine whether or not Miss Bella will actually wear a wig. Trey wants to be Captain Jack Sparrow. The Disney Store is out of the costume right now but expects more to come in soon. We got the hat/hair just in case they don't have that later! We also went to lunch at Ruby Tuesday's which was nice!
September 14, 2008	Trey and Bella had a Daddy day while Mommy helped Grandmom with stuff in her house and then went to a meeting. They had lots of fun.
September 15, 2008	After gymnastics today, we played outside since it was an incredibly beautiful day! Then Mommy decided to take away some of our naps. Trey and Bella had "quiet time" in their rooms today. It didn't really work since Trey fell asleep! LOL!
September 16, 2008	Trey and Bella had their first day of soccer today. They did well but were very tired since we went to the afternoon class instead of napping. Mommy thinks we will go to the morning class next week!
September 18, 2008	Bella did great at dance class today. Trey had to come with us, so he watched a DVD with headphones for the first time. He loved it!
September 19, 2008	Trey and Bella had a wonderful time at Bounce U today with the South Jersey Mothers of Multiples kids! Its a really neat place and possibly a future birthday party location!
September 20, 2008	We went to Olivia's "almost 6" birthday party today. Yes, we know her birthday is in December, but she wanted a pool party. Trey and Bella's "colds" got worse after Daddy insisted they be allowed to swim with the other kids.
September 21, 2008	Well, after yesterday's "fun", we ended up at the Doctor's today. Both kids have sinus infections. Trey also has croup and Bella is heading in that direction. Both kids are being treated with a steroid and antibiotic.
September 22, 2008	It was a day at home today since Trey and Bella have to be on the medication for 24-48 hours before going near other children. We watched movies and made cookies.
September 23, 2008	We went to tot soccer for a bit and Trey and Bella had fun. They tired easier, probably from just getting over being sick. Trey and Bella enjoyed their afternoon playdate with Skyler, Raina, Katie and Brian. Happy Birthday Aunt DiDi!
September 24, 2008	Trey and Bella had a wonderful time today apple picking at Johnson's Farm! Mommy will post pictures soon! After apple picking, we went to the Disney Store to pick up Trey's Captain Jack costume for Halloween.
September 25, 2008	We went to story time at the Library today. We read stories about different jobs people have (Police Man, Construction worker, Doctor, etc.) and then made a tool box for craft time. Bella did great again today at dance class. She really seems to like it! Mommy made sure the kiddies we in bed on time tonight before the premier of Grey's Anatomy!
September 26, 2008	We purchased Isabella's Christmas and Christmas Eve Dresses today! Now, off to Gymboree to get that jacket for Trey!
September 27, 2008	We took the kids to Toys R Us today to use the gift cards the kids got for their birthday. Bella picked out a Dora doll that came with the Superbabies and Trey picked out a Diego Rescue Center. Mommy and Daddy were planning on buying some things for Christmas since there was a good sale going on, but we couldn't find anything that we or the kids wanted/needed. I think that should tell us something! If Trey and Bella couldn't find a thing a Toys R Us, I guess we have too many toys!
September 28, 2008	Virtua Hospital NICU held they reunion today. Trey and Bella had a lot of fun! There were pony rides, 2 moon bounces, lots of food, spin art, sand art, games, etc.! It was a nice day! Oh, and of course we saw some friends and NICU staff as well which is always nice!
