Alexis went sledding for our date today. The hill was a sheet of ice. The inflatable tube broke on the first run because we were both on the tube and the ice had some jagged spots. So Alexis continued sledding on a deflated tube. It didn’t make a difference in speed. She could have gone down the hill on her coat and the ice would have carried her the same. It was very slippery and fun.

Alexis is sick to her stomach
Alexis isn’t feeling well so we are giving her the “brat diet.” She doesn’t have a fever so we aren’t sure what’s going on – probably a digestive infection after a recent bout with the flu.

Date with Twins
This date was with both twins at Barnes and Nobles bookstore. I took Rachel first and then Alexis the next day. We went to the children’s section where the twins can pick out any book they desire. They read the first book and I read the second book. On Alexis’s date, we purchased a children’s cookbook for Heather and a flower for Rachel.

Daddy Date Song
This is the song I sing to the twins whenever we go on a date. It’s a silly song that makes them smile.
