The babies slept through the night. It was great not even having to get up to give them a paci. They woke up around 3:30 and got a bottle, changed and back in bed until it was time to get ready to go to daycare. Calvin and Brayden wanted Froot Loops on the ride to daycare today so they each got a small bag of Froot Loops.
After dropping them off I came home and started putting the shelves together. I was able to get all four shelving units assembled and things organized in the basement. I finished everything around 1:00 so I ate lunch and then took a shower. After that I laid down on the couch to watch some TV and fell asleep. I woke up around 4:00. Erin came home shortly after that and then I left to pick up the kids.
Brayden was a little difficult getting him loaded in the car. I had to hold him down with one arm while getting him buckled in. Once everyone was loaded in the car Brayden was happy. I gave him some Corn Pops for the ride home. Calvin didn't want his Corn Pops.
We gave the boys Nerds tonight. They have had them before and really like them. My grandfather used to call them "Nerts". Anyway, the boys were spilling their Nerds out of the box so I got a small bowl for each of them and they poured the Nerds in the bowl. This worked for a while. Then they decided to sit down on the Kitchen floor next to each other to eat their Nerds. They started dropping their Nerds on the floor and made a mess. I asked them to stop and they got great big grins on their faces. Then after I walked away I heard the sound of Nerds hitting the hardwood again. So I walked over and took the Nerds away from them. They only fussed for a minute or so. Then Calvin actually helped clean up. He grabbed the dust pan and helped me sweep the Nerds up. Then he carried the dust pan to the garbage can and dumped them in.
Calvin for some reason decided to pull out all the baby spoons from the drawer and bring them to Erin as she was feeding Carter and Aubrey. After pulling out all the spoons Calvin and Brayden put them all away. I'm not sure if the drawer was left open or if Calvin opened it again, but later on he was playing with his toy tractors and he hit his head on the open drawer. If left a small mark on his forehead, but it wasn't bad. He started crying until I kissed his forehead then he was happy.
I picked up some Dunkin Donuts this morning on my way home. I ate one for breakfast and then ate one after dinner. The boys ate about half of my doughnut. Calvin said "that's good" after taking his first bite (which was a big bite). He says "mmm that's good" quite a bit now.
I hid under Brayden's crib before the boys came up to go to bed. They found me hiding and then both crawled under the crib with me. We played around on the floor for a little while before putting them to bed. They fussed for quite a while tonight. Normally we just leave them, but I decided to go in and see what was going on. Calvin had thrown out his water, blanket and pacis. I gave everything back to him and then they went to bed shortly after.
