Good Dogs!

It's been a while since I've posted a picture of the boys. As you can see, they've become quite comfortable hanging out in the girls' room. Bailey is usually in there with me when I put them to bed. I say good night to the babies, then it's OK Bailey, let's go... If I have to go back in there to check on them at night, the boys want to come in and see what's going on.

Mary and Sophie went to lunch with me for the first time today. We went downtown to Himalayan Fusion and had lunch w/ Rhonda. She had not seen the girls since sometime in November. We'll have to get together for lunch more often so she can see the girls grow!

We just finished watching The Hoobs. The girls get to watch that every day before their dinnertime, and they get to watch Elmo's World in the morning. They get so sucked in sometimes - they don't even notice me when I get home from work!

Sophie and Mary being couch (or, uh, bouncy seat) potatoes!

The Hoobs - Aren't they cute?

Well, I'd better go fix some bottles before someone gets too cranky!

So Big!

I realized how big the girls are now when I saw some pictures that Peter took of me holding Mary. Peter was feeding Sophie at the time so just took a few close-up shots of her.

Sophie has been making vowel sounds for a while, and Mary is starting to make more noises now. They've both laughed out loud - Peter's made Sophie laugh, once when I was not here and again during bath time tonight, I made Mary laugh yesterday when Peter was not here. She squeals with him sometimes though, and that's so cute.

Simon and Bailey are really good with the girls. I've been neglecting them on the blog (and they've been getting a few less walks), so I need to post some pictures of them soon.

Tummy Time

Sleeping Beauties

It happened last night - Mary and Sophie went to bed as usual around 7:00, but this time I did not have to go in their room until they woke up at 7:00 this morning. Will it happen again? I probably just jinxed it for tonight, ha, ha. That's OK. Usually someone wakes up and needs a pacifier or something in the middle of the night. I could probably just let them get themselves back to sleep when that happens, but then I might have 2 babies that are awake.

The girls just had their 4 month Doctor's appointment on Friday. They have grown a good bit and are closer to full-term baby weight now. Mary weighed 12 lb 5 oz and Sophie 12 lb 3 oz. Both girls laid on their bellies and rolled over for Dr. Wong. Sophie also showed off all the vowel sounds she can make now.

We are all doing great! The girls are more fun than ever. I'll post these pictures and write more later - Dad just got home from work.

Sophie: Can't a girl get some privacy after a bath?
