Dad's morning with Will

Patrick left Patti and the twins at the hospital today to take Will to his friends' (also twins) 2nd Birthday party at Glen Echo Park. Will LOVED the puppet show and the rest of the birthday party, and he loved the old trolley and bumpercar near the main building.

We realized yesterday that we'll need to do more special things like this with Will so that he doesn't feel left behind by all of the new changes at home. He was so snuggly with Patrick during the puppet show and he asked often about Patti and the babies. Patrick, for his part, did pretty well on a few hours sleep and three cups of coffee...



Here's a good comparison of the girls. Stella is on the left, with her blond hair and lighter skin. She also has a longer face than Maggie. Maggie, on the right, is smaller in general and she has darker skin and hair. Her face is rounder and smaller than Stella's.


We're taking advantage of the fact that they fit in the same bassinet at the hospital. Imagine the room the little beans will have in their co-sleeper at home.
The plan is that we'll be heading home tomorrow mid-day, assuming Patti and the girls continue to check out just fine. Hooray!
