Good Sleep

The boys slept very well last night, praise God! They wake up every 3 hours for their feedings, but go right back to sleep. We have a little difficulty getting them to bed at 10:00, but they are doing better. It's been a good couple days. Each time I wake up for a feeding I'm a little bummed to be getting up, but as soon as I see the faces of my babies I smile and am so happy to be getting up. It's amazing how much love I feel for them.

Grandma Anderson is back and we've had a fun couple days. We put Chase and Owen in cute little outfits today and took them to a green house to look around. I had a little trouble getting the new stroller into the trunk and I thought it wasn't going to fit. I was wondering what I would do-we'd have to get a new car! I wouldn't ever be able to leave, what would I do, etc. Mom came out and very calmly helped me maneuver the stroller so it actually fit in the trunk. Praise the Lord! :) The boys love their Grandmas and the time they get to spend with each of them. We are very lucky to have our parents so close and willing to help.

We've had a lot of visitors, which is fun. It helps us stay connected to the "real world". The boys love to be held, so visitors are very welcome in their book.

Sunday we went to our neighbors house. He is a photographer and had asked to take pictures of the twins for his portfolio. It was a lot of fun. Jeff and I each got peed on twice, as the boys were nude for some of the shots. They did very well and we are super happy with the pictures he took.

My face is slowly getting better. I have a little muscle movement on the left now and am choosing to remain positive about it. It's only been 3 weeks today so I'm remaining patient.

Chase sure likes to grunt. He makes the most noise out of anyone in the house. Each time he moves he grunts-lifts his arm, he grunts. Owen is much more quiet and relaxed about things. He's pretty easy going like his Mommy. ha ha. Both boys are just delightful and bring so much joy to our lives. They love their baths, swings, bouncy seats and sleep. Thank goodness they like sleep-hopefully it will continue.
