Daycare pictures

Here's a few pictures we took on Lizzie and Paul's first day at daycare. (And yes, I know this happened two weeks ago, but that's life).

They had a sign up on the fridge (and everyone was waiting for the babies - so nice)



Their cribs were already marked and ready



Their names were on the wall - yes the birthdate is wrong, but they have since fixed.

Daycare

Sorry it has been so long since the last post. I always feel that I need pictures, so when I don't have time to download, I skip posting. Hopefully I will have time for some more pictures soon, but I wanted to update on the daycare.

Lizzie and Paul started daycare last week on April 16. We are lucky because it is so very close to our work (we are both at the University of Louisville). It's about 1/4 mile away - across from the stadium (if you know where that is). It's small and very, very friendly and clean! So far everything seems to be going well. They have caught their first colds and have runny noses and a little cough. Paul had a fever last Friday and saw the doctor on Saturday. He said it's just a cold and had us continue to monitor his temperature, feeding habits, etc. Paul's temp was back to normal by Sunday. We're hoping they develop the daycare immunities soon.

Hard to believe, but Lizzie and Paul will be 4 months old this Saturday. We are sure to have some pictures then. Plus, their cousin Jonathen will make his First Communion on Sunday, and we'll take pictures at the party.

Other than that, we're just trying to get into a routine (one that involves at least 5 - 6 hours of consecutive sleep for me and Charlie).

First Easter

For the twins' first Easter, we dressed them in little bunny sleepers. They looked very cute in the little pink and blue sleepers. Luckily, the weather here was very cold and they didn't get too hot in the outfits. While the Easter bunny didn't visit them at home this year, Grandma and Great-Grandma came through with some cute stuffed animals to celebrate.

The pictures were taken at home - Charlie ran out the night before and bought the grass and eggs.

3 Month Check up

The babies saw the doctor again yesterday for their three month check up. They are both doing really great - Lizzie is 12 lbs. 13 oz, 21 3/4 inches and Paul is 11 lbs. 12 oz, 21 1/4 inches. Paul's incision sites from the hernia surgery look good. He is still having problems with reflux (one reason he weighs less than Lizzie) so we are thickening his formula with cereal now. He seems to like this and is keeping it down better.

They are enjoying their time with Daddy - and I will have him take some more pictures soon. We have cute bunny sleepers for them to wear on Easter - so look for pictures next week.
