Simply a Good Day!

Today was a good day with the babies. Not that everyday isn't good, it's just that today they seemed super sweet. We started the day by visiting my former coworkers at the Brody School of Medicine. It's reviving to me to get to be back at my old stomping ground and see the sweet friendly faces of the folks I worked with. It's also fun to watch people's faces as I walk the hospital halls with the twins. Meredith and Berkley just have a way about them...they light up everyone around them. I love to bring a few smiles to people's faces just by putting them in the stroller and going visiting. I saw the magic of their mere presence again when I took Meredith and Berkley to Target this afternoon. I buckle Berkley in the front of the cart and let Meredith sit inside the cart...boy do they love being in a shopping cart! Meredith says hey to everyone who walks by and Berkley tries his best to swipe things off of the shelves. I like to think that Meredith and Berkley bring a little bit of sunshine into people's lives who may not have had another reason to smile that day...maybe they do for you too!

Secondly, the babies REALLY enjoyed their visit with Grandma (my mom) and Nana (my grandmother) today. I walked downstairs with Berkley after he woke up from his morning nap and he went straight to my Nana, which THRILLED her! Not only did Berkley go to Nana, he sat with her for about 30 seconds cheek to cheek and then he sat in her lap, just lounging around for about 5 minutes. It was a special moment with Great-grandmother and great-grandson. I'm so thankful that God has allowed my Nana to see and enjoy my twins, it's a true blessing! I managed to snap a sweet picture before Berkley got out of the cuddling mood.

Finally, have I told you how excited my babies get when their daddy gets home? Well they do! They get so happy when they hear the keys jingle in the door and the door opens to reveal that their daddy is home. Tonight we were eatting dinner when Steven got home, so they couldn't see him when he walked in, but boy did they hear him. Their eyes started sparkling the instant they heard the door shut and they awaited seeing their dad pop into the kitchen. I didn't get that moment on film, but I did manage to caputre this precious moment of daddy and babies playing after dinner. Enjoy!
