How early were they, yummeecookee ? I Linda wonder what to expect with milestones since P was preemie but she just rolled back to belly yesterday (at 5 months). She was only six weeks before her EDD and wasn't a twin though, obviously. I wonder this with A too. He'll be 6 months next week. He's definitely behind (I don't like that word, but couldn't think of how else to phrase it) but thriving. He's getting close to rolling back to front! He also just started grabbing some toys if you put them in his hands.

I’m drowning my restlessness is food, a vegan peanut butter cup to be precise, wine and coffee. Should work right?

I have so many thoughts, but now that I’ve just binge- read this thread, I can’t remember any of them. I must go make another cup of coffee.

I don’t like Chardonnay either. A former friend of mine always ordered Chardonnay when she had sushi, and the pairing always felt off to me. I don’t drink often but I always try to keep a bottle of Sauvignon blab or sancere on hand for white and just a Pinot Noir or a Cabernet for red, but I mostly cook with that.

H is on hardware store trip #1 for the door. Taking bets on how many trips it takes to get the new door in.

Try a red Rioja next time, so good .

Thanks, @nam. I will look for it. There’s is a Shiraz called Jar Jar that I really like to drink. Especially when I make either a big pot of chili/pasta or some winter kind of roast with lots of root veggies.

I'm laughing at sauvignon blab. I drink white when I have seafood and I have to drink red with red meat or pasta.

I don't drink based on what I'm eating... I drink because I like the taste of it.

She drank too much the night before at dinner so I asked her what she had. It was a mixture of several liquors. I can drink a margarita with mexican food, and a mimosa/bloody mary with brunch, but anything else would need to be consumed before I eat. I don't want to drink a martini while eating my meal. I need wine with my meal.

I have not heard that the helicopter has taken off, nor that it's cancelled, so I'm hoping it's the former. Helos make me super nervous. I'll be optimistic and say 2 trips dapostrophe You'll have to share pics of how the door turned out! We went to the bounce house place and lived to tell about it. Those places kind of gross me out; I prefer the trampoline park but C is too small. At least the kids burned some energy off. When this episode of Octonauts goes off we're venturing out to Walmart. Ours does offer grocery-pick-up but not same day.

cagoldi, she had them at 35 weeks. So that’s really not too bad at all for twins. I think 38w is considered full term for twins.

I'm so sorry about your friend, xolastunicornxo. I can't love tit comments about cheap booze (cough, mwhip, cough) - there are plenty of microbreweries in Denver that we can visit. I just ate so many chips at our Friday in-office happy hour. I feel gross.
