Swapna starts 'work' tomorrow!

Both girls are sick for most of this week;) They caught the cold from Swapna, not sure where she got it from. Shruthi seems to have recovered from it, but Vennela is still having lots of trouble breathing. She is a lot better today, compared to Fri. Hopefully she will recover soon. Shruthi did well, she just slept through the whole thing, for two days, waking up only for her food. That must have really helped. Poor Vennela, she tries to sleep but wakes up unable to breath;)

Rajeash, Poornima and kids stopped by yesterday. Their kids are good, well behaved. They were very excited to see the squirrels and the birds:)

Think we made another big step in the parenting/baby process, took Costco membership. Swapna and her mom went there this morning, leaving both girls with me. Girls were fine, by the time they came back from Costco, I was done feeding Shruthi and was almost done with Vennela, truly a proud moment in my parenting career.

Swapna starts work tomorrow. She is not actually driving to work, planning to work from one of the bed rooms:) A nanny, Teja starts work tomorrow. She is a student at Stafford, is from Vijayawada. She says she is ok working with kids, but we told her next week is a trial period, for both of us, see if she is really comfortable dealing with these tiny babies. Hopefully it will work out. We got a lot of responses to our ad in Sulekha. Got a lot of responses from Nepalese women, and everyone was a preschool teacher back in Nepal;)

Amy, Jim and Tommy came by to see the babies this evening. Tommy is growing fast. I think he is taller than Swapna now. I'm sure next time we see him, he will be taller than me, and he is only 7 now;)
