No. My Babies!

Moss started bantering with Brooke over whose babies the girls are and Brooke finally declared, "No Daddy. I got them from Mommy and the doctor!" There is no doubt that she feels very strongly her place in their lives. She really adores them and is sure she can meet their every need, whether it is feeding or burping them or getting them a pacifier (which is what they need for sure). She is such a fun girl to have around.

A warm and wonderful Saturday

Last Saturday was a beautiful day, and so Moss and the kids finally got to finish the tether ball project that has been in the works for a while. The kids had a great time helping Moss, as well as getting wet and dirty. We put it in the backyard, and we all love to play it. I love warm weather. I love bare feet and playing in water. I love my kids being outside together running around. Maybe someday I will again get to live where there are mild and short winters.

We are in Love

The girls are now two weeks old, and somehow it seems like they have always been here. They are still quite demanding at night, and I am not really sure how we will survive without Grandma Carolyn here. But despite their nightly habits, they are adorable and sweet and we are really enjoying them. Fortunately they are quite happy and very tolerant of the affection they receive from their siblings. They are quite oblivious to all the ruckus that goes on around here and can sleep through anything. And until they can communicate otherwise, we will have fun dressing them and taking their picture together!

News Flash!!!

The long awaited day finally arrived for Anna. She was sure she was the only kid in the whole first grade to never lose a tooth. She refused to have her tooth pulled, so last night as she fiddled with it, it finally fell out. She jumped up off the couch with a whoop. She was also thrilled to discover that the one next to it is also very loose. Congradulations Anna!

Lillian- One week Old

Lillian is also adjusting well to life outside the womb. She is getting spoiled, and prefers to sleep next to us rather than in the crib. She is very sweet and bright-eyed. We are amazed at how much change happens in just a week.

Aleia- 1 week old

Well, it has been a week since the girls were born, and as I say "every day after birth is better than the one before." We are adjusting, and thank goodness my Mom is here because I surely don't have enough arms to do all that is required. Aleia is doing well, and adjusting to the world outside the womb. She has not quite figured out when she is supposed to sleep, but we hope it will be soon.
