Labor Day fun! I’m still housebound for a while, but Tom and Mark took AMA for a school drive test run, and then they rode the green line. Serious business.

They stopped at dunkin. Then played at the playground. 

Meanwhile at HQ. Spa day! Hair and nails today. 

Goofing around with a Boppy. 

Mark loves Vivian. He asks to hold her. 

Still a big adjustment for him though. Poor guy!

Outfit change!

Hello! Vivian got to meet AMA! Ama made it from Taiwan with no trouble. She even stayed awake until 9pm tonight (with one nap). Pretty good!!

Mini photo shoot. 




Then big bro Marky drove up with grandma and grandpa!! He was so proud to get a chance to hold her. He washed his hands, and he made sure to ask if grandpa washed his hands. 

Mark says Vivian can’t swim yet because she’s a baby. But when she gets bigger like him and Johnny she can go to the beach. 

Calming Mr P with a paci. Mark says Mr P and Vivian are the exact same size. 

Many thanks to grandma and grandpa for all of their help!!

Look! Twinsies with baby Maya! Thank you, Mr and Mrs. Fornal!!

Love, 

Betty

Menu at the hospital. Not too bad. Tom got to order food with me so we had fun having family meals all week.

Hello!

We got to leave the hospital today! Everyone was great about getting us out early.  They came and did Vivian’s hearing screen at 7am. The tech wasn’t amazing, I’m sorry to say. She riled Vivian up, and to calm her down she gave her a packet of sugar water. Sheesh! Anyhow, all the doctors rounded on us first, I think, and we were ready to go by 9:30am.

Looking good, Tom!

Made it to the apartment!

The SNOO really works. 

And big brother Mark is still having great adventures!

Can’t wait to see him tomorrow. This is the longest we have ever been away from him! Thank you, grandma and grandpa for taking care of him and taking him on adventures!
