Three Months Actual One Month Adjusted = Zero Time

Carolyn & Aiden on top Alexis & Maxwell on bottom...November 16th at home

Ok not really! I do have time, but I usually spend it resting. I was spending it pumping, but I have thrown in the towel. Or pump I should say.

I've started this post so many times, but give up and try to get some rest and think I'll come back to it when I'm more rested. Note: I'm never more rested. I only get more tired. I want to write something sweet or at least funny, but I can't. It is like my brain is stuck in a mode where the channel isn't coming all they way in.

I hear to enjoy the babies while we can at this age. I am enjoying them. They are just tiny things that observe the world. They puke on it and pee on it, but they also observe it. When I'm most tired and need sleep the most is when you can pretty much depend on them to not sleep well or long. It is like they have a built in radar that detects sleep deprivation.

So update time...
Max and Aiden are both over 9lbs. Max is probably already 10lbs actually.
Alexis was 7.14lbs while Carolyn was 8.8lbs. Everyone is monitor free and we are loving it!!! They're more alert and watch everything around them. We've put the fronts back on their bouncy seats so they can play in those while they're awake. We're also doing more tummy time, but Alexis will just snuggle down and sleep after a few minutes. We're moving them to separtae cribs this week, but we're not sure how well the boys are going to do. Right now the girls stay apart while they sleep, but Max & Aiden will wiggle around until they are touching. We have 4 angel care monitors that detect if they were to stop breathing or moving for 20 seconds, but we still haven't hooked them up. You need to have them all in their own cribs before you can use the monitors. So we may be hooking those up as well this week.
