The babies are doing great, by the way. They are growing well. Collin especially. He is now in the 50th percentile for his weight and it isn't on a preemie scale. He is rapidly catching up. He weighs 16lbs 3oz. He is eating like a champ. We started him on fruits and vegetables. He eats anything you put in front of him. No problem. Anniston & Bailey are weighing in at 121/2 & 12 lbs. They are in the 6th & 2nd percentiles. Anniston is now eating from a spoon. She is having a slow start but is progressing very well. She has also been eating her fruits and vegetables. Bailey is getting started on eating some cereal with a spoon also. She is progressing well. We will be starting her on fruits and vegetables soon.
The babies are still sleeping very well. We have never been able to complain in this area. They are still sleeping from about 9-9:30ish until 6 in the morning. I feed them and put them back down and am able to go back to bed until 9-930ish.
We think they are starting the teething process. We have heard that they can teeth for a while before they actually get teeth and we think that is what they are experiencing now. They have some fussy times. The evenings are becoming a little quieter. They haven't been getting really fussy until about 8pm. We are able to enjoy them a little more and they are as well.
All of the babies are attempting to talk. It is hilarious. Anniston starts jibber jabbing and then laughs and continues to jibber jabb so it sounds like she is trying to tell us a story. Maybe some day we will know what that story is but for now we can only wonder. Collin & Bailey try to talk also. They are too cute. They are always smiling. We are having tons of fun with them. Don't get me wrong. It is hard sometimes but the good times are priceless and those are the ones we will remember forever.
The family is leaving next Friday on vacation. Jason & I, the babies, Grandma & Grandpa Bum, & Aunt Tracy are heading to Myrtle Beach. Please pray for us for we are driving and we don't know how the babies will do. We are trying to arrange it so that we can console them a little better while they are in the car seats. I guess you can only do so much but we can at least try. Usually their car seats are all in a row in the middle seat. We will free up the middle of that seat so that I can sit between two of them if they get fussy and try to play with them, etc.... We may have one ride with Grandma & Grandpa Bum so someone can take care of the other one as well. Jason & I are looking forward to the trip. It will be fun.
Thanks so much for your continued support and encouragement!
