Todays Update

We went to the doctor today to see the lactation consultant and see the pediatrician - our boys weigh FIVE pounds now!!! Michael is 5 lbs 2 oz. and Jeremiah is 5 lbs 1 oz. This past weekend they were both 4lbs and 13oz, so they both gained a good bit in 3 days! We are very proud parents! :)

We are going back on Saturday to begin practicing nursing both of them at the same time. I am really thankful for the lactation consultants at the doctors office, but everytime I go I have to pay a co-pay for EACH baby! They want to see me twice a week, that is 60 bucks a week until their due date! They should really give breaks for twins! Oh well, everything is double when you have twins!

Here are some pictures that we have taken today - enjoy! They sure are getting cuter and cuter!



Their New pack -n- play! (Thanks to the Mosemans for the gift card, and for Mr. Mark for the gift cards from Malissa! We love y'all and the boys will love their pack-n-play!!!)

Do you think he had enough milk? He has the "Milk Drunk" look!

Glad things are going well. I think I may have warned you about co-pays at the dr.s back when you were talking about new bedding. LOL. I know how it is...everytime someone gets sick here they all get sick...that is 15 dollars per child...making it 45 dollars for one visit! It hits us really hard some months. Just part of having big families I guess. In Jan and FEb. an entire paycheck from Dave went to the dr. office. :-(. No multi child discouts really stinks....but at least we have wonderful insurance...unlike 90 percent of the World's population. :-)

It gets better and it isn't cold and flu season eaither so that really helps!

They sure are cute! Sounds like nursing is going well. Owen just weaned himself....my eailest by far....I am not handling it well.

Got the pictures of the boys today and boy what a change they have made since thier birth. Can't wait until next month to get my hands on both of them and give them each some MeMa and PaPa hugs and kisses. Love to you all,and hope that nursing both of them at the same time works out ok.
