Twin Photo Shoot & Survival
Our family is currently in survival mode, we are spending all of our energy and time just trying to make it each day. Having the twins isn’t really hard, it’s just very, very, time consuming and exhausting. Take everything you do with one baby and times it by two and you have the wonderful world of twins. It seems like its non-stop feedings, burpings, diaper changings, washing dirty bibs and cloths, washing bottles, mixing formula, and holding of babies, a non-stop cycle of being on the go!
However, it’s not all doom and gloom. We are finally getting our family into a routine, which is helping to get everything back to normal. Everybody is adjusting and finding their place in our dramatically different family. Colby has been such a huge help, he loves to feed one of the babies a bottle, and is so wonderful with them. Abby is a good big sister, even though she has been struggling to find her new place the family, she isn’t the baby of the family anymore and is struggling with that. However, she sure does love her new brother and sister, at times it’s just a little to much love.
Tyler and Julie sure are growing; they have grown out of preemie clothes and diapers and are actually getting the classic, Dickson Chubby Baby Cheeks. We had somebody from the state health department come in this past week to check their growth and development, Tyler is now 12lbs and Julie is 11lbs. They are such good babies, they hardly ever cry, and are beginning to develop their on little personalities. Tyler is a little formula vacuum and Julie is our little gremlin. Julie almost never cries, but instead grunts and “meows” as loud as possible and makes funny noises. Tyler is such a patient little boy, when he gets hungry he makes a few little noises, sucks his tongue, but almost never cries and patiently waits for his bottle. I can't believe Tyler was ever in the NICU for 2 1/2 weeks because he wouldn't eat.... now he hardly ever stops!!
We LOVE the twins! Twins are so much fun, and I can't imagine ever having had them separately. They are just such a pair! Meant to be together!
