Sick Babies

Lucy was diagnosed with the flu one week ago today.  She is now much better, but the babies then got sick on Sunday.  I knew having twins would have trying times, but I never thought about how hard it would be when they were both sick at the same time.  Lets just say Joey and I did not get much sleep Sunday, Monday or Tuesday night.  Wednesday was better and I am hoping tonight will be back to normal.  June has an ear infection as well so she has had it pretty bad and has not had an appetite. 

They are three and a half months old and getting big.  They probably weigh somewhere between 10 and 11 pounds.  They are smiling and making noises.  It is fun - most days!

Life with Lucy

Thank you Lucy for the bear that is bigger than me. 

 Please note the thin spot on top of Norah's head on the next two pictures  This is evidence that Lucy did in fact give Norah her first haircut!

Drew and Kellie Dell

Kellie has been a good friend for many years and has been a babysitter for the girls.  We love Kellie and Drew and had the honor of being at the wedding.  This was the girls third wedding since September - I am going to start charging for their services!  Kellie made the girls tutus and her wedding cake.  She is an over achiever to say the least.  We will miss having Kellie and Drew around, but are so excited for them.

Hands full

So this update is long over due.....

It appears that the last time I updated the blog was on November 7th.  I guess a lot has happened since then.  Sorry that my time is limited...5 kids and a full time job seem to be keeping me busy. HA!  Speaking of that...one is crying right now.  So, this may not be the update I wanted but you will get some pictures anyway.
