could it be???

I'm not quite sure, because I don't feel any more well rested,
but I think that the babies just slept through the night!!!!!

We fed them at 9:30 last night and not again until 5 am!!!!

woohooo!

Maybe it's because we still have to get up every 5 minutes to put the
pacifierback in their little tiny mouths.... hmmmmmmmmm.

goodbye little itty bitty clothes and diapers

Today, i sorted through s+p's clothes
and removed all the just born, newborn and preemie clothes -
it's getting too hard to get them over their heads and well,
they can't stretch their legs in some of the pj's anymore.
We also moved UP to size 1 diapers.

I cant believe how BIG they are or how little they were!

The girls are now up to 3M sizes and 0-3M sizes - which
for some reason, are bigger than NB??? go figure.


I'm in the industry and I don't get that one...

Laundry

Weekends are for laundry.
Collecting laundry.
Spraying laundry.
Dropping off laundry.
Picking up laundry.
Putting laundry away.
50 pounds of laundry...
question:
how much could two sets of
tiny clothes and blankets
and towels and bibs weigh any ways?
answer: 50 pounds

Ah, solo feeding twins...

now that is an adventure...
setting up all the pillows,
diapering, getting food and
water for mommy...
oh and the babies...
manouvering them onto the
double nursing pillow and
well getting them to "latch on"
good thing they are so cute.
