Customer service has gone to hell. Jamie actually had someone put that on their resume. He didn't even interview them, but its true! I had a plumber scheduled to come out one afternoon and their scheduler called to say they had a plumber in the area. I was at the grocery store with the kids and had already arranged my day around the appointment. That stupid lady told me there may not be another plumber in the area the rest of the day. I asked her why I had an appointment if she wanted me to drop everything and go home then (by appointment I mean sometime between 12:30 and 4). She got defensive and said she couldn't guarantee that someone would be in the area later that day. What a joke!! I told her to cancel the call all together and to have her manager call me. So don't use FitzGerald and Sons Plumbing because I am mad at them. Our stupid heater is broken, too. We had it worked on three times last winter. It needed some kinda new switch. Then it broke again a couple of months later. Lucky for us the part was under warranty but the service was only warrantied for 30 days. So we had to pay another 75 dollar fee. And we will have to pay another 75 dollars Thursday I am sure. Isn't that bull? It's not our fault they keep putting some faulty switch on the heater. So, after 230 dollars to the plumber, the heater problem, Christmas coming up, the Tahoe needs new tires, both our birthdays in December means new tags-the Bacons be broke these days! Maybe we should buy a trailor by the river. BBB

This is a picture of my babies when they were in the NICU. When we went to feed them that day the nurse said she had a surpise for us. They had put the babies in the same bed. For some reason I really wanted them together so this was an exciting day for all of us. I cried, of course, and we took lots of pictures. They were separated a few hours later because one of them had to go under the lights due to high bili levels, but it was a start! Fast forward 18 months later and I am reminded how lucky I am to have two healthy, happy children and a husband who loves me! BBB

This blog is dedicated to my husband for admitting to me that The Apprentice IS good TV!! I have been trying to get him to watch it since it started. For some reason, he has been watching this season with me and made this major break through last night. Now if I could just get him to watch The Bachelor!

On another note, I want to say that our stupid house is still for sale. It should be against the law for a realtor to make an appointment and not show up for it or not to call and cancel like any decent human would do.

Today at the zoo, (yes we went again) some lady tried to tell Jamy Juhan that life would be easier when her twins were walking! HA! I politely asked her what she was smoking. I am sorry but life was easier when they were two lumps. I will admit that they are much more fun now though.

Last, I want to thank my neighbor for my coffee mug. It reads, "The best man for a job is ususally a WOMAN". Ain't that the truth? BBB

My children are advanced. Sorry I had to say it. Everyone else says it about their kids, so why can't I? God makes it so that most parents think their kids are the smartest, cutest, most adorable things in the world. That way, you won't leave them in a ditch after they stick their hand in poop. We went to music class on Wednesday and my babies got rhythm! The teacher said they would start to learn the beat but I didn't believe her. She was right though, they both were moving to the beat. OK, Ben was off a little but its a start. Madeline has learned to say,"here oo go", when she hands me something. If Ben is screaming she will try to give him a toy or juice to shut him up and she will say, "here oo go". Pretty smart, huh? Ben knows how to work the women. He flirts and smiles and always goes for the blondes. He sat in one of the other moms laps for about ten minutes. We don't know her other than music class but she is a very attractive blond. Their vocabulary is growing so fast. Everyday they say a new word or understand something I've said and it amazes me. (Yes, I have been watching my language.) I can't believe in a couple weeks they will be 18 months old. What happened to my little babies? BBB

Look at all the twins! To the left is my friend Rebecca with her twins Haley and Ian, who were born the day after mine! In the middle, Jamy Juhan and her girls Reagan and Zoey. And of course Ben and Madeline! This was taken at our new hangout-the zoo! The kids love it. We walk around, eat lunch and play on the play ground. All these twins brings new meaning to the phrase, "You belong in the zoo"! BBB
