Has it really been 3 months since my last post? Goodness, i am sorry to any of my readers who are still out there! Things have been crazy for us. We moved to Marina, and really love our new house. It is bigger and has a great backyard.. and is within walking distance to a great elementary school. That will be so great when Tristan starts Kinder in the fall! Other than that, we have been doing well. The twins are 6 months old, well really almost 7 months old. They can roll all over the place, sit up, are eating solid foods, and are on all formula. After much debate, we have decided to quit cloth diapering the babies. I am sad about that because they are just so darn cute. But, i was spending 5 hours every other DAY washing them and i just dont have that kind of time. Our washer is an HE one so it doesn't allow the necessary amount of water to pass through the diapers. So, sadly.. i am selling away our stash. Oh well. They are also sleeping pretty well through the night, usually only get up once at night.. but they must be growing right now because they are getting up WAY more lately! On October 11th my little sister Natalie gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, Cailey Anna. She was born without oxygen, and other complications.. despite the doctors best efforts she passed away 10 days after she was born, to the exact minute. I was able to fly to Idaho with the twins (thanks to my sister Nicole) to be with Natalie and Greg for the memorial. It was a very hard time. Very hard. This caused me to lose my milk supply. Too much stress. But, the twins are growing anyway! Prayers for Natalie and Greg and their continued healing and grief are appreciated. What a hard road. In other news, we have decided to travel to So Cal for Christmas this year. We will spend the beginning of the week with my family and then travel to San Diego to spend the rest of the week with Jay's family. Should be really fun. Anyway, that is the latest. Hope all is well with everyone out there!! And, what is a post without a photo? Here are a few of our adorable kiddos!
