Long Time no Post

We've been busy... or at least the girls are keeping me busier than usual.
Quick updates..

• Lee had his first Father's Day.. It went well. He got a card from each girl, a book that he had wanted and a Snugli (he requested it). We went to church as a family and had a nice time.
• The girls attended their first UU Church picnic on June 22nd. They had a nice time and we took plenty of pictures. I'll post them later.. I need to go to bed soon..
• The girls are starting to SMILE and make all that we do for them so worth it.
• Cheryl and the girls took a train ride into Boston and back on the 24th and survived.
• The girls met their Uncle Alan and Aunt Debbie for the first time. They totally behaved themselves during lunch at American Joe's Bar and Grill. Plenty of photos were taken.. will post them when I can.

Time for mommy to go to bed.. I mean soothe Anna to sleep.. then go to bed..

I think that we all look fabulous but I'm biased.
Lily is on the left and Anna is on the right.

4 wks update

Both girls are doing fabulous.. we actually go back to the Ped on Thursday for our one month appt. so I can't wait to see how big my little piggies are now.

I've been recently playing with bottle amounts and I had moved Anna to 5 oz but then noticed that she wasn't drinking the last ounce so back to 4oz bottles for her. Which is so much easier and cheaper since I don't need to buy more bottles like I thought I needed to on Saturday and didn't.

I just noticed with Lily that her newborn size diapers were leaving marks on her.. so I'm trying out the size 1 diapers on her and they seem to fit and no more red marks.. So now both girls are in size 1 diapers. Yikes. I have a little over a half package of newborn diapers leftover though.. Guess I'll hang on to them for my next friend that has a baby or donate them somewhere.

Since it's been so hot I'm trying to keep the girls inside as much as I can.. maybe later on (after Lee is home) I'll take them out for a walk to the mailbox and back or go by myself.

I actually found some time to actually relax and do 2 loads of laundry (one for us and one for them) today and I got the announcements almost finished (return address labels and stamped). I need to write notes to include with them to the RE that we had and my OB before I mail them out. Hopefully that will happen tonight or tomorrow.

I even worked on some pages for the scrapbooks today. I finished a page or two from my PG album and a page for Lily's album. Just need to scan and copy their footprints and hospital cards for the albums and baby books before I do anything else with them. Maybe tonight I'll get some knitting done too.. we'll see.
