On Tuesday morning Daddy Daniel became Photographer Dan and took pictures of the boys and me shortly after waking up. The shots are not photo studio quality, but definitely memory book worthy!
The boys and I are steadily getting into a routine, which is something absolutely necessary to have with twins. Once they get up, we feed them, change their diapers, and put them down to watch Sesame Street. It is never too early for learning. Plus, it gives me a little time to make the bed, wash and sterilize bottles, have a cup of java, and throw in a load of laundry :)
On Thursday we celebrated Part 1 of Father's Day. Daniel didn't know where the boys and I were taking him. He only knew to clear his schedule for a family day. I literally blindfolded Daniel once we were getting on the freeway so he wouldn't know where we were going. We got to Balboa and strolled the streets and did some shopping. We then took the ferry over to the penninsula and took a 45 minute narrated boat tour. It was after 6 p.m. and the day had cooled down quite nicely. Our plan was to vegg out on a blanket at the beach for a while, but the boys by that point were not cooperating much. So, we packed up earlier than anticipated and headed back to the island to eat dinner at a restaurant on Marine Avenue. It was a great day!
On Father's Day, I got the boys out of the room ever so quietly so Daddy could sleep in for a change. While he slept, I made Daniel a breakfast worthy of a 1st Father's Day! After breakfast he opened his present which was a Willow Tree statue called "New Dad."

So my return voice mail was timely, or did you have an epiphany in the middle of the night, and remember Balboa??
Great pix! Sounds like a nice day, and that he was well feted for his first FD!
