Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Girls
One year ago today Annalie decided that it was time to get the show on. She headed down the birth canal and at 7:53 am she arrived weighing what looked and felt like a miniscule 1705 grams (3 lbs 12 ounces). And two minutes later, at 7:55 am, Story slid down the same birth canal, feet…

The Babies’ First Swim
Yesterday we took the twins over to a friend’s place and took them SWIMMING!! And I have to say, it was crazy fun. At first Story, who we thought would be nuts about the water was very nervous, but she warmed up to the pool water fairly quickly. Annalie? From the moment her feet touched…

Missing the “Man Time” Part of Life
Perhaps the toughest thing that came along with having twin baby girls is the fact that I rarely ever get “man time.” Now make no mistake, it is a dream to have two of the most beautiful little girls the world has ever seen. And my wife, well, we are the very best of partners.…
