First Visit of Cantigny



Today Maya had her first visit of Pediatrician and in honor of her, I got a Tetnous shot too. Although, I don't think the nurse had to give me a lolly!
After visiting with Mom and Dad in Naperville, we went to Cantigny in Wheaton. Stayed there until the mosquitoes started bothering us. Matthew and Nathan, really enjoyed the Tanks and the model of the park to be viewed from above a glass surface.
I think we'll visit the park again soon.

We Survived the First Day!


So, Linnet and Maya came home yesterday and with the help of our parents, everything went smoothly.
Today was the first day we rolled without the training wheels. It was fun and sometimes crazy. Linnet and I, switched holding Nathan and Maya, and in between I had to ask Matthew to literally stay off my back!
Nathan seemed a bit confused or jealous, I couldn't really tell. We both felt bad for him, as he wanted to play with the bouncy-seat Maya rests on. The trouble was that Maya was in the seat and Nathan wanted to pull her off of it, by pulling her fingers. When holding him, he doesn't feel like a baby anymore!

New Addition to our Family

Maya Parvaneh (Butterfly in Farsi) was born today at 11:36 AM CST. She is 6 lbs and 14 oz, and 19 1/2 inches long.
Maya shares the same birthday as Nathan. She was born exactly one hour after Nathan, in the same room (1114). The same nurse and doctor who delivered Nathan, deliver her.
She weights the same as Matthew and has the same height as Nathan.
Linnet called me 4:00 AM at work, and told me that her contractions were getting closer to every 10 minutes. I left work, and was able to pick up my Mom to watch the kids at home, while we were in the hospital. She patiently babysit for us, and we're grateful for her help and Linnet's Mom as well.
So, since Maya is technically was born one hour later than Nathan, they are not Irish_Twins. Nathan and Matthew visited their Mom and baby sister this evening.
They both were happy to meet their sister, although I don't think Nathan understands he'll receive less attention.
Linnet requested a Jamba Juice smoothie, that I will bring to her to the hospital tomorrow. I am exhausted and need to reboot!
