A Day in the City

A Day in the City

Last weekend we had a wonderful time in San Francisco.  It was the first time Justice and Jasmine got to visit Grandma at her resting place and the first time that Ebru got a chance to hook up with her friend Filiz from Turkey. Our road trip started from Elk Grove.  It was our first [...]

Family Vacation

Family Vacation

It has been a month and a half since my last post.  I believe it’s the longest break I’ve ever taken from blogging since I started several years ago.  In this time we have gone to Hell and back.  It was time for a much needed vacation.  Little did we know that this vacation was [...]

Fairytale Town

Fairytale Town

Kids Aren’t Cheap!

Kids Aren’t Cheap!

If Grandpa Could See You Now

If Grandpa Could See You Now

One of the toughest things about our situation is being away from our parents.  Ebru’s family is in Istanbul and my dad is in the Philippines.  Both sides of the family are just too far.  We do what we can to bring our families closer to Justice and Jasmine. Last Christmas we sent my dad [...]

Half Way There!

Half Way There!

Last week they officially passed their 6 month milestone!  Wednesday they go for the 6 month immunization shots and check up.  We’re guessing that they are about 16lbs each and about 30 inches tall.  We think that is above the normal for kids in their age group, especially for twins. This week we continued feeding [...]

Best and Worse Month

Best and Worse Month

It’s been awhile since my last post.  Justice and Jasmine have kept us very busy.  This is their 4 and 1/2 month.  In some cases it has been their best month and in other cases their worse. We have seen a lot of development this month.  They are definitely more aware of their surroundings, they [...]
