Bring your children to work day

We had a big outing Wednesday! Griffin, Braddock, Julia and I went to visit Daddy/Bill at work. Everyone was so excited to FINALLY meet these babies they'd been rooting for, following on the blog, and hearing so much about, so off we went. The dressing process was quite extensive and it actually took three people a full hour to get all three fed, changed and dressed properly for a day at the office! (more like an hour) Julia wore a fantastic spring dress and the

Once all three we snugly packed in the car, we started the journey. They made not a peep the entire drive. When we arrived, Bill met us outside and we snapped our seats in the stroller, grabbed the diaper bags and went inside. I was so happy to show everyone who has been so supportive of us, these happy babies. One problem: They cried the whole time!!! Griffin's lip started quivering as the all the excited faces peered into the stroller. I tried to talk to him but he was apprehensive about all the attention. Then Julia became uneasy. She wants to sit up all the time now, and I think she was frustrated that she was strapped in and unable to show off her skills. She started to wail. Braddock seemed relaxed for awhile but hearing his brother and sister shrieking was more than he could bear. Luckily we had lots of loving hands to help us. All three saw the magical snowman light up in Don's office (Bill's boss) and that seemed to do the trick -- at least temporarily. We don't venture out much, so new faces are probably a bit overwhelming. We plan on going back again and we'll hope for smoother sailing.

They slept in the car the whole way home and took another nap later in the afternoon. It was such a big day for them. I guess all that crying wore them out! We are sorry to all the people trying to get some work done for disrupting their morning. I swear we didn't know that would happen.

I'll get some updated weights and measurements from the doctor today which is always exciting.
