Time flies when you are a peanut almost 5 months old

Mom is really really sorry she hasn't posted in a long time, and WE apologize that we always have to start our posts off with an apology... because SHE of all people has her hands full.

The last post you saw was from Easter. Mom and Dad brought us down to CT to have a proper Easter Sunday with the Pelloni Family.. Proper including the Easter hats.. as you could have seen from the picture. We spent a night at Grampy's house and then headed over to Great Gramma and Pop pop's house for the Italian Easter Sunday. We were really excited to meet more cousins we hadn't met before, Sonny and Skylar. Brother and I really put our cute on for that day... I don't know what happened to him... he looked like he should have been on the home page of baby gap. From what I hear, Mommy had a two cocktails and went to Janie and Jack.... and went a little crazy.

We have been on a constant adventure.... our Nanny takes us all sorts of places. We go to the park and out for walks as much as we can. She takes us to the mall for walks on rainy days... and don't worry she doesn't let anyone touch us... so we don't get the piggy flu. Mommy and Daddy have gotten a little more courageous with us too... they took us to Boston.. and they took us to the soccer field one night.. in hopes that they could rotate on and off the field.. That made us LAUGH... or cry... Thank God we had freinds there that could help out... and Mommy didn't really get any playing time in.

Brother has rolled over.. yep it's true.. the pudgie kid I share a room with, flipped from his belly to his back... everytime he does it he gets a little mad and then Mommy or Daddy comes flying up the stairs to plug him in and put him on his belly again. (For all of you who are freaked about the belly thing.. our Dr. told us to do it) As for me, my big milestone... well.. I wouldn't call this a milestone.. I would call it a lifestyle change.. I am no longer a cranky baby.. not even a little. Mommy puts me to bed with my eyes wide open.. and I doze off... through the night. Brother does too.. but he has always been easy going. I realized that you attract more bees with honey.. and turned a new leaf.. now I smile.. coo... and laugh.. and I don't give Mommy or Daddy any trouble when its time to go to bed... I do get a little crabby when my pants are wet... but wouldn't you? We are officially eating food.. apples, bananas, pears and rice...oh and peas, sweet potatos and carrots. We have been doing a pretty good job of it... I really really like it.. especially the peas which grosses Mommy right out.. she hates peas!

Big brother has been spending more time with us lately which has been nice.. Sometimes he takes me into his room without Mommy or Daddy knowing about it.. we giggle about it because they freak out when I am not in my bed and they find me kickin it with big brother.

We have been spending alot of time with our "Aunties" and "Uncles".... I put this in quotes because they are who we adopted as Aunties and Uncles.. in our house everyone is family. Uncle Rob who tends to like brother better... has got a little crush on me... I have alot of fun with him... he bounces me on his knee like crazy. Aunty Tracey comes over every Thursday to play with both of us... and she just plays and plays with us.. it's so much fun we get SOOO much attention! Grammama comes over too!!! Lucky for us we have LOTS of grandparents.. and right when we start to miss one.. someone shows up to spoil us with love! Grammama comes over as a pinch hitter for our parents when they need her.. she's the best.. and she thinks we are the funniest babies alive...well except for Adelaide..she's the real funniest...and we have to give a shot out to Aunty Yo and Uncle Jason who trek over here from the seacoast to hang out with all of us.. Aunty Yo always talks about having all sorts of trouble up her sleeve with me..and Uncle Jason just carries me around like a pro.. ever since my 3rd day on the job he's been doing that.. pretty impressive.. huh? WE LOVE Aunties and Uncles.. and we LOVE when they come visit.. so if you are one of those people.. please come visit us soon.

Speaking of pinch hitting.. we are Red Sox fans in case you were wondering.. Brother has already grown out of his first red sox shirt.... and me.. I just wear mine to earn points from Daddy (I am trying to get a wooden play set to put next to the ponies).

We did celebrate our first Mother's day with Mommy.... but practically slept through the whole day.. I guess not a terrible thing right? We did enjoy Mommy's smile that day... and Daddy's birthday was this week. We know he appreciated brother's 5:22 wake up call after he went to bed at 3am.

We will be 5 months old next week and time has really been flying in the PBT house. Everyday is a new adventure for us and we see Mommy and Daddy smile like crazy at the two of us. We have started playing with each other a little more and we are definitely laughing alot more. We are really lucky to be part of this family, it's full of love and laughter.. and we are really lucky that Mommy and Daddy have such amazing friends and family. Life is good when you are a Tullis Twin!

Next month we are getting Baptized.. and we think we may be holding onto our bottles, rolling over, talking more..laughing more and maybe even giving smooches who knows.
