Jen and I packed up the kids and headed for St. Louis on Wednesday to give the kids a little entertainment since they have been stuck in the house because of the birth of their brothers.  We started out going to the St. Louis Science Center.  Both Alex and Olivia had a great time even though it tends to focus on an older crowd.  Here are a couple of pictures of the kids with a fake snake.

The next day we had plans to go to the zoo but inclement weather forced us to do something indoors.  We decided to go back to the City Museum.  The kids had done the city museum last year and really enjoyed it.  The only downfall this time was that there were about 10 million people there.  Pictures from both the City Museum and the Science Center can be found here.  Enjoy!

It was time once again for Alex, Olivia and myself to get our teeth cleaned.  Here are a couple of pictures of the kids getting their cleaning.  They both did a great job.  Alex actually let them clean his teeth this time.

Alex got the oppertunity the other day for his grandfather to show him what it was like to hunt turkeys.  According to the pictures he seemed to enjoy it.

Jen and the twins finally got to come home today.  The hospital always treats us well but there is no feeling like coming home.  Thanks to everyone who visited us in the hospital.  It was great to see everyone.  We have some pictures of the kids on my picasa page here.

The New Arrivals Are Here!!!

Well today was the day the twins finally arrived.  And in typical fashion for our family we more than a bit surprised by the events that occured this morning.  For about the last 5 to 6 months we were under the impression that our twins were: 1 boy and 1 girl.  However, fate would play a different role.  To everyone’s shock baby “A” (which we thought was a girl), turned out to be a boy instead.  That was all fine because both were very healthy and looking good.  Now the only problem was, “What are we going to do for another boy name?”  If you have been to this site in the last month or so you probably took our boy and girl name poll that we had set up.  Well, do to unforeseen circumstances, we will disregard the girl name poll and look to the boy names.  We have decided to go with Aiden Cole for the “girl” baby and Wyatt Allen still gets to keep his name.  Below is the only picture I have for now but there will be more to follow.

I will end this post with some awesome fan support.  Aiden and Wyatt’s cousins from Chicago showed that they were glad the twins finally arrived.  Thank you Reilly and Owen.
