Weekly Update

Tenley's newest words this week are: Clover, iPad, soft, sorry, but my absolute favorite is purple:

Since Ed had the day off for Veteran's Day, we decided it'd be good to try taking Tenley's bubba away. We chopped off the tip so it'd lose suction and she lost interest in it and didn't ask for it at all after realizing that it was "broke". She kept herself busy by playing around the house:

Then, all hell broke loose at nap time and she was pissed. She would throw the "broken" bubba at us and cried the biggest tears for an entire hour until we gave in:

We figured that completely cutting her off from her beloved bubba was not the smartest idea so for now she'll only be getting it at nap time and bed time. Gotta take baby steps with our bubba lover, I guess. After her nap, she played outside with Daddy in her Benz and Daddy taught her how to ride her trike:

The Venturino girls came over on Tuesday for a play date and the girls had a blast giving Alena a check-up:

After watching Karina give me an ah-mazinggg foot/calf massage, Tenley thought she'd pitch in and practiced what she learned:

The babies have been moving like crazy and I can now see their every movement. The massages must have loosened them up because they were moving around like Rockem Sockem Robots:

Gymcats gave us another trial class on Wednesday since T was sick during her first class. I'm so glad we tried it again because she had so much fun! Her favorites are the trampoline and balance beam. Her teacher, Mrs. Susy, is the sweetest lady and really lets the kids do what they want, while still showing them the proper ways to do it. I'm so glad  that Isla and Tenley get to enjoy this new experience together, while having so much fun:

Ed will not let me trim Tenley's hair to make it all one length. Needless to say, her  rat-tail/mullet is starting to get way out of control:

T's love for Pearl has recently turned into an obsession. She is constantly hugging and kissing her (against Pearl's will):

 She literally makes Pearl do everything with her. I should've seen this coming since they used to watch movies together since she was born and still forces her to do so:

I hate Thursdays since Ed is gone all day with work and school. It didn't help that this Thursday I was in some major pain due to the massive watermelon that has hijacked my midsection:

(29 weeks 5 days)

I was beyond excited when Ed made it home for bath time and so was Tenley:

The Venturino girls came over for another play date/foot rub session on Friday. The girls played together so well, while Karina spoiled me with another amazing foot massage:

(Thanks soooo much, Karina! I don't know what I'd do without you!)

Tenley loved on Pearl, again:

That night, we went to Town Square for Santa's arrival parade:

I hit the 30 week mark in my pregnancy on Saturday; which is such an accomplishment with twins. Since I still had money on my Green Valley Ranch Spa gift card, I celebrated with a 50 minute maternity massage that was heavenly:

That afternoon, Tenley and Ed took a long nap together:

Tenley has started to take Pearl's food bowls everywhere and forces her to eat:

Tenley got dressed in her Steelers gear and started shit talkin' at the players like a true Steelers fan:

I cuddled with T during her nap and enjoyed every second of it since it won't be long before I have 3 babies to cuddle:

Ed even snuck in some cuddles after her nap:

Tenley helped Daddy put together the twins sleepers and pack n play:

Until next week! :)
