TEA PARTY
February, 2006 Erin attended her 1st TEA PARTY this month. Thanks to Olivia Bonsall for the invite. Colin would have loved to have been there, he heard there were a ton of hot chics. You'll know for next time Olivia.

What's the deal, Colin was told "girls only"?
Who's the lucky dude in red?

TOGA PARTY IN SPRINGFIELD
FRIDAY, February 17, 2006
Favorite Uncle Jack babysat tonight for the 1st time. Let’s recap the night from his perspective:
Pat and Bryan went out for Bryan's birthday dinner. First, the twins had one bottle (of milk) each; then the Toga Party started; Pat and Bryan were very serious when they announced no guests in the house so the party did not last long as there were only 3 of us; then the twins cried (mostly Erin); so I introduced them to the Baby Einstein DVD; their attention there lasted for almost an hour; then Erin fell asleep; Colin and I hung out for a ½ hour; then Erin woke up crying and Colin fell asleep for a ½ hour; lastly Colin woke up and there was a contest to see who could cry the loudest. Uncle Jack won. Then they had another bottle. Pat and Bryan FINALLY came home by 10:15 PM and had no clue we had a party. Hopefully the kids slept for most of the night so daddy could enjoy some birthday Z's. FUN TIMES...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!

Erin and Colin loved watching Baby Einstein, at least for the 1st hour.

HAPPY TWO MONTHS TO THE TREUDES
WEDNESDAY, February 8, 2006 - This is a day we would like to forget. That mean doctor gave us four shots each and it hurted a lot. We would much rather have another bath. All of our friends are invited over this weekend to go sledding, eat snacks and watch movies but please don't ask us about those stupid needles.

SUPER BOWL I FOR THE TWINS (ACTUALLY XL)
SUNDAY, February 5, 2006 Pop-pop Treude hosted the twins 1st ever Super Bowl Party. Colin and Erin could not comprehend why Uncle Greg was wearing his Eagles jersey since the team finished in last place this year. Even Sylvester and Tweety Bird are laughing behind his back. Perhaps he was reminiscing about last year. Maybe next year we will have a Pennsylvania Super Bowl for the twins to enjoy!

SMILE, IT'S PHOTO DAY IN SPRINGFIELD
SATURDAY, February 4, 2006 Our next goal is to get them to smile at the same time AND take the picture AND hope that neither of them puts their arm up and blocks it. How cute are the twins with their smiles?
Shout out to the Barrie's for giving us styling new head gear

FUNDRAISER DATES SET
WEDNESDAY, February 1, 2006 The Knights of Columbus has set the date for the annual Spring Fling. This benefit raises money for "The Colleen Betzal Memorial Scholarship Fund." Aunt Colleen (Patti Ann and Uncle Jack's older sister) passed away suddenly in 1997. Tickets will go on sale next month; you may contact the Treudes at that time. The date is Saturday evening March 25th, 2006. This beef and beer will take place in Aston, PA. As an FYI, some consider A-town as the center of the universe.
Also, the annual M.S. (multiple sclerosis) walk will take place on May 7th, 2006. The Treude family usually organizes "Team Barbara" in memory of Bryan's mother.
Lastly, I hear the twins are smiling on cue these days, pictures to be posted this weekend.

MORE COUSINS VISIT
SATURDAY, January 28, 2006 - Bryans’ cousins Jimmy and Michelle, along with their three kids, traveled to Del-Co today to meet the famous Treude Twins. Pats' cousins were no where to be found as they were at their annual Cousins Weekend in the Pocono’s (10th annual). We missed you Pat and Bryan!!!
from L to R: cousin Katie, cousin Sarah, cousin Patrick

WE TRAVEL TOGETHER

SUNDAY, January 22, 2006
A shout out to Ms. Olivia Bonsall. Thanks for Erin's invite to the "girls only" tea party next month but we travel together. Colin likes tea and would feel very comfortable hanging with the gals at this party.

Erin and Colin are growing very quickly right before our very eyes. Pat cleaned the house this weekend so feel free to stop over for a visit anytime.


VISIT TO GREAT-GRANDMA’S HOUSE

SUNDAY, January 15, 2006

The twins spent this afternoon in Bucks County visiting Great Grandmother Treude. The twins have completed her set of eight grand children and eight great grand children. Way to go Treude Twins!

WHO'S HE?

Thursday, January 12, 2006

Jason and Deena's son William came over to play with the twins today. Colin is still trying to figure out who the new guy is.

The twins weighed in at a Doctors appointment this week.
Colin and Erin have gained one pound each since birth and Erin is now 1.5 inches longer. Colin has also grown an inch since December 8th. At this rate, Erin and Colin will weigh as much as daddy when they are 20 year old.


ALREADY ONE MONTH OLD
SUNDAY, January 8, 2006 - Happy one month to the Treude Twins. Please know that your mommy and daddy want you to develop individual personalities as you get older. However, for time being they would prefer for you to sleep at night as most people in this world do. Just close those eyes tight and remember daddy has to work in the morning to help buy all those diapers. Two hours continuous by each of you at the same time is all they are asking.



NEW YEARS DAY BATH
SUNDAY, January 1, 2006 - The twins celebrated New Years Day doing their favorite activity - BATH TIME, NOT. Actually their favorite activity is snuggling with mommy and daddy after bath time.
Knock it off will ya, don't you hear us crying? WE DON'T CARE IF WE ARE SMELLY!
OK, all done, we're cool. This was the last bath ever mom and dad, got it?
