Just another day

There isn't anything too exciting happening around the Keesee house. At this moment everyone is healthy, happy (actually sleeping) and things are just "normal." And we are SO thankful!! It's a wonderful relief to not have any drama that must be dealt with or any major stresses that must be handled. It's an amazing feeling great to have the day-to-day regular stuff with nothing out of the ordinary. It's like we finally have a moment to catch our breath.

Here are a couple of pictures of the twins. Tate still hasn't gotten a tooth yet. Poor, poor kid! His gums were bleeding today, so I'm sure we're very close. I've also included a picture of Aubie and Gage. It's been mentioned that there are no new pictures of me on here (as the author of this blog I get final editing privileges!!!) so I will try to post some very soon.

As time goes by...

It seems that time is flying by and I'm unable to keep up! I'm very sorry it has been 5 weeks since my last entry...I will try to do better (key word: try!!)


We have been extremely busy this summer. Aubie has 1,000 camps and meetings he must attend (yes, that is a mild exaggeration) and while I enjoy having the kiddos all to myself, sometimes they gang up on me! I'm very fortunate that I have a fantastic family that is eager to help and I'm learning how to ask for help. I've always been able to "do it myself" so it's hard for me to admit that I can't do it all!

Gage is growing like a weed. He is considerably taller than he was this spring. He is SO excited about starting pre-k in August. He and cousin Addy picked out his new backpack last weekend! I'm not as excited about the change, and on occasion I get a little weepy about how quickly he has grown up. But then I think about our daycare bill and I realize that public school rocks!

In baby news, TARA HAS A TOOTH! Her gums started swelling over the weekend and then yesterday...poof! she had a tooth on the bottom right. Poor Tate's gums have been swollen for 2+ weeks now and he has been drooling like crazy and very (very) cranky, but no teeth yet. They are so close to the surface I think one good bite and they will come through!

Tara weighs 13# 13 oz and is 25" long. She is rolling around everywhere and is working on crawling. She's not going anywhere yet, but I don't think it will be much longer before she's able to chase Gage around!







Tate weighs 16# 14 oz and is 26" long. He talks all the time (don't know where he got that! ha) and is just the happiest baby you'll ever meet. He sleeps on his tummy and has, on occasion, slept through the night.






Aubie's birthday is this weekend. He'll be OLD (early 30's)!! I'll try to get a couple of family pictures to post so you can see how ancient he looks! ha ha.
