Best Day Ever
The day dawned Sunny and Bright.
On Monday Chip & Dale and I went to the Zoo with another twin mom and her b/g twins (Pebbles and Bam-Bam) who are 3 days younger then mine. We had a great time. Dale loved the pygmy monkeys. He'd point and smile and look at me to see if I was looking at them. Then he's clap his hands and smile at the monkeys. Pebbles kept calling Chip "baby." I thought it was so cute. Chip really likes her. Dale likes to hang out with Bam-Bam. It's cute to see your children interact with other kids once in a while. There was hardly anyone at the zoo so we let the kids run around a little and then we had a big lunch and went home. They must have ate well because the boys were fast asleep by the time we exited the parking lot.
When they woke up, they were in such a good mood. I was watching them as I prepped dinner. They were sharing toys and not fighting. I saw them hug each other once. They were babbling away in a way that sounded so much like a real conversation with pauses and different inflections for excitement and interest. I was imagining they were "talking" about the monkeys and how neat they were.
They started to get a little fussy so I let them watch Sesame Street on Tivo. Dale got so excited when he heard the music start that he ran to the tv with this HUGE smile on his face. Then he turned around and ran to me, gave me a huge bear hug and the biggest smile ever before he ran back to the tv and sat down to watch Elmo. I felt like the biggest hero. Apparently he thought it was a pretty good day too!
We finished off the night with a big family giggle tickle fest that had us all rolling on the floor giggling and gasping for breathe before they went to bed and fell fast asleep.
ahh I love days like this. These are the days I wish I could bottle and revisit later.
