Well, actually we had our first RSV shot yesterday, but we were so crabby that Mommy didn't have time to update the blog until today. Currently we are sleeping...we'll see how long that lasts!
WEll, since I last posted...things have been going. Pretty well actually. Despite Matt's brush with a cold, which freaked us both out, since we were terrified that he'd pass it on to the girls. He was so sick that he missed Thursday and Friday last week of work. No fun. For all of us. He felt horrible and sounded horrible and I, well, I had to do both Mommy and Daddy duty. It's hard taking care of 2 babies by yourself. Tiring too. I'm very glad that he is feeling better AND even happier to say we were successful in keeping the girls from catching his cold! GO us! :)
At the girl's pediatrician appointment yesterday Olivia weighed in at 8 1/2 pounds and 20 1/2 inches long...she's still not on the charts for her weight and length, HOWEVER she is in the 5th percentile for her big giant head (as we call it)...so go Olivia. Sydney isn't on the charts at all...she weighed in at 8 pounds and 20 inches long...so she's catching up! Our pediatrician has asked us to continue to house arrest and wants us to get the girls to eat more....good luck with that...but we're working on it. Their biggest issue continues to be eating. :( Poor girls. They do now however sleep for 6 hours after their night bottle, for which I am profoundly greatful! :)
Today is election day and hopefully by tomorrow we'll know who our new president will be. Either way, I can tell you I am going to be so happy to have all these darned commercials over and no more phone calls from pollsters. They act like all we have going on in our lives is the election...um hello, we have babies to raise too! :)
Hope all is well...I'm including a collage made by Grandma Carol!

PS...sorry I was so late in getting this on the blog, between computer issues and a bout with the stomach bug I wasn't able to get on the internet until today (Friday). :(
